Ok, so I tried on a friends pair of Remz 05 Haffeys. They were V cut. I had them as tight as they could go without causing pain. I felt like I had absolutely no support and that I wobbled around in them way too much. I thought they slid nice on the ledges, but I had no support while rollin. Is this true for all Remz, or is this just because they are 4 years old and are extremely worn out from constant use?

PS Im only asking this because I may be getting the 08-3s in a little while. I like having support. I heard from someone the other day that they are stiff out of the box and as I break them in, I will get used to the amount of flex. Is this true. Hey David are you out there? Cuz Im pretty sure I saw you skate these at BCSD 09.
