Happy New Skate Day to Kinsley! π
Her feet grew! π
The skates we fitted her for in April weren't feeling so good for the fall skating season.
We can do quite a lot to help the width of skates or pressure spots along the sides to feel better, but we can't make the skates grow! π
Kinsley's feet felt much better in this pair of @jackson.ultima Finesse 451 skates to keep going with her basic skills lessons this year.
Happy Skating! π

This little skate is about done! β οΈ
Figure skates like this one are supposed to flex and crease. A little π€
After hard work and (we hope!) a long time they'll start to look like this!
Skaters usually find that this level of creasing doesn't feel so good to skate in π£
β The ankle isn't as sturdy for landings
β The padding inside is all squished down and not as comfy
β The boot can't hold its shape as well anymore so the laces come loose no matter how tightly you tie them
All of these are signs it might be time for new skates!
If you're ready for your next fitting appointment come see us! Make your appointment online or by calling us and we'll get you on our calendar to talk all things feet, skates, and comfort π
Happy Skating! π

Happy New Skate Day to Avery! π
We got to see these skates in action during competition weekend, and we're SO glad she's settled into them so well! π€©
Avery leveled up from her @jackson.ultima skate set to a Entre Fusion boot with an @mkblades Galaxy to help her progress on her single jumps this year.
The Entre has juuuust the right amount of support to help petite jumpers fly without overdoing it on their ankles π
The Fusion sole is waterproof and shock-absorbent for long hours of skating π
Plus the Dura-Guard toe coating and swarovski crystals up the back give the boot a bit of extra pizzazz! β¨
Happy Skating! π

Happy New Skate Day to Kristina! π
We love a skater who knows what she wants! π
Kristina explored higher support models for her next pair of skates after her first pair of @jackson.ultima Freestyles from 2019 started to feel soft.
Her skating schedule and her skills list still fit well within Freestyle's range of possibility, and none of the other boots were feeling quiiiite right...
So since her first pair worked so well for almost 5 years, we decided to do it again!
We're here to support YOU as a skater and what YOU need from your skates.
If more support or a different blade isn't what you're looking for that's totally fine!
We agreed with Kristina that staying in a new pair of her skates for another few seasons was a good plan for her π
Happy Skating! β¨

Socks, socks, socks! π§¦
Now that it FINALLY feels like Fall out there let's make sure your sock drawer is ready for these cooler temps this season π₯Ά
Our @mybobbey Merino Crew sock will keep your toes toasty on and off the ice! π₯
The Nylon Skater Crew has a barely-there flat toe seam to provide a barefoot feeling in your skates or your everyday shoes π£
The nylon stocking options from @chloenoel_skatewear and @mondor.performance give skaters a smooth transition from practicing in socks to competing in tights since their fabrics are the same deniers π₯°
Stop by for your favorite pair, or to feel them out and ask us questions!
We're in-store till 6pm tonight and from 10am-6pm tomorrow π

Happy New Skate Day to Katelyn! π
As the college semester started she figured it would be a good time to start a new hobby as well!
Katelyn took a few skating lessons in childhood but couldn't remember much of what she learned.
With the @nusc.skaters she plans to take her skating skills as far as she can!
After trying several kinds of skates during her fitting appointment, Katelyn chose the @jackson.ultima Elle to provide the best fit and support to start her skating journey π₯°
We heat molded, blade balanced, and discussed a support insole, and sent her to her next practice session ready to glide!
Happy Skating! π

πMoody Fallπ Rockerz, or βοΈCozy WinterβοΈ Rockerz?
The color palette of this @rockerzskateguards set has us thinking of leaves whisking by on the sidewalk, knitted sweaters, and the first few snowflakes of the season!
Or are they a warm fire with a cozy blanket and cocoa with whipped cream?
...wherever those snowflakes may be... we'll be waiting! βοΈ
What kind of vibes do your guards give? Seasonal? Different aesthetic?
Need a fresh set for competition season? We're here till 6pm today, tomorrow, and Friday for you! π

Happy New Skate Day to Charlotte! π
This skater is new to the sport and understands the value in proper equipment!
Her beginner skates were causing pain and frustration with her footwork skills.
She wants to learn the jumps and spins of skating, so she knew she needed a better pair of skates to help her get there!
We fitted, tried on, and discussed, and found the @risportskates Scott Hamilton skate to be a great starter skate for her π₯°
It provided a more comfortable fit and sturdy support to help her continue her current skills, as well as a better blade and the ability to start the basic jumps that will be coming.
Happy Skating! π
