Honestly one gen to the next, the improvements are minimal. I think we've reach a peak on skating performance when we introduced carbon fibre/composite into skating materials. APX, Totalone, CCM Rbz, rbk 20k vs APX2 performance will be very similar. if you're taking about 10 year old skates vs. current gen, that's different.
#1 thing for skates is fit. you should be comparing the fit and shape of skates. Supreme vs. Vapor vs. Grafs. Second major thing is stiffness low vs. mid vs. high.
Top end skates are pretty much all the same once properly fitted. Big differences could be the blade profiling and getting one that matches your skating style.
Anyways, the new big thing is the Tuuk holder. Change blades on the fly but for most players, i doubt this feature will be any different than changing out old steels. More comfortable and less lace bite with the eyelets. Not sure how much of this is marketing placebo vs. real life performance.
I do admit that they are very sharp looking skates and have nice aggressive styling (best looking skate I've seen). If you find these fit the best and you like how they look, then it's your purchase.
Unfortunately these are super high end prosumer skates before professional grade skates (AHL, NHL customs). small niche market and not too many people have these yet.
If you're spending this much, you should go to a skate shop and see if they let you try the competition out.
