Happy New Skate Day to Claire! π
This skater THRIFTED a pair of recreational skates that she was trying to JUMP in π³
The skates couldn't keep up and they started to fall apart, so she scheduled a fitting.
We're SO glad she did!
Not only were her old skates too low-level for the elements she wanted to attempt, but they were also a size and a half too big for her....
Fortunately we had a great option in-store π
The @jackson.ultima Freestyle Fusion set does it again!
We heat molded, we blade balanced, we talked through what new skates were supposed to feel like, and she was off to break them in just in time for her collegiate team's showcase two weeks later π
Happy Skating!! π

Taking the cereal box boot insole to another level π
Our most influential mentors tell us to get creative.
Try the weird thing.
Follow the inspiration and see what it does for you.
Doesn't work? Great, try the next thing.
Your strange idea solved the problem? Great, bookmark it for later!
We're giving our @sidas_usa Comfort 3D insole some bonus length for a skater with an itty bitty heel but ladies size 8 foot π³
Zone in on the details. Try the weird thing. And if it helps someone and you learn something in the process that's the real benefit π

Happy New Skate Day to Vivian! π
This skater's first pair of skates couldn't keep up with what she's been learning lately!
She needed a snug fit and more support for her new skating schedule and starting single jumps.
After discussing fit, trying different boots, and adding a support insole, the @riedell.ice Topaz was the winner!
π Firm 40 pt support
π Rolled achilles collar comfort
π Crystaled lace bar and backstay π
What more could a skater want?
If you're ready for your next pair of figure skates book your fitting appointment with us to get started! The season is winding down, but figure skating goes year-round and we DO still book a full calendar day-to-day.
Happy Skating! π

Happy New Skate Day to Aurora! π
After her mom started skating for fun, Aurora figured if she was going to be at the rink she might as well join in!
She needed a sturdy skate that would let her enjoy the glide while seeing what she could remember from childhood group lessons.
Cue the @jackson.ultima Artiste!
With its firm support, structured fit, and blade suited for all footwork we figured this skate would be a great re-entry to the ice tool for Aurora.
Whether you're a beginner or an elite competitor, you deserve the right fit and boot for your level, and we strive to deliver!
Happy Skating! π

Happy New Skate Day to Zoe! π
Welcome back to the ice!!
After a 15-year-hiatus Zoe wanted to skate for fun with her kids again.
Her old competitive skates weren't a good match for her foot though π£
Skating should NOT = Pain!!
We fitted her with this gorgeous @risportskates RF3 Pro boot with an @mkblades Galaxy to blend elements of the traditional and the modern to help bring her back to the ice with familiarity and COMFORT.
After heat molding, a couple boot punches, and our blade balancing she and her skates are excited to take the ice π₯°
If your foot has shifted but your skates have not, we can help! Either with some comfort adjustments to the old boots or with new skates we're here for you π
Happy Skating! β¨

It's Kyla's FIRST New Skate Day! π
She had a pair of beginner skates from Amazon.
They were a bit too big and they weren't holding up to her skating schedule!
We chatted feet, fit, current progress, and skating goals π€
Hellooooo @jackson.ultima Freestyle Fusion!
This skate set gives her firm support for starting single jumps and understanding how a figure skate is supposed to feel on her foot! π
Our support insoles are hiding on the inside to help align her as well, and we're so excited to see how these new skates help her goals π
Happy Skating!
