Buying Guide
When making an investment for an ice skate several factors should be considered. When first learning to skate it's important to learn on more traditional pre-assembled skates. Many of the higher end skates are designed specifically for people with advanced or intermediate experience. Especially the skates with detachable blades. When choosing a size, it's important for general safety to find skates that provide a secure fit. Generally A skate should be moderately stiff to give good support to the feet and ankles. It is recommended to lace the skates all the way to the top when in use, so be sure to try both skates on tied to the top to insure proper fit and comfort. It is also recommended to use a thin pair of socks while wearing skates, to insure proper fit and contact support. -
