Hi All,
I raised this at the tail end of a comment below, but I want to post as a separate query. My sense is that once my little skater lands and stabilizes her Axel and moves on to doubles it's time to move on from intermediate. Is that a reasonable transition period? Believe me I'm not looking forward to the $400-$500 level for a growing foot, but how long can a skater improve on a Coro Ace/MK Pro level blade? Also, since competition season is ending for us next month that might be a good time to transition before the next season starts. Last boot change we squeeked by and she was able to test and compete without any disruption, but I don't really want to risk that coming back to bite us in the future.
