I still use my koho 580's which is way more then what I need for ball hockey, but I originally got them to be a pad I can use on ice as well since my old Itech 4.8's weren't cutting it. Plus these 580's fit me better and help seal the fivehole better then my undersized 4.8's. I actually slide okay depending on surface, not as great as my 4.8's but not terrible unless the weather is humid and hot...I'll probably go between both pads.
The only place I cheaped out was my C/A since I needed it to be light and breathable (I use a 4.8) as well as an RBK 6k glove, but even the Canadian Tire CCM glove is suffice.
As for the Vamps, could be because of strapping I'm guessing? But yeah you can try putting something on the boot so it doesn't catch, I don't have that problem w/ either of my pads but try duct tape or velcro as said above.
