Hi! Long time lurker posting for the first time with an issue with the fit of my new custom skates. I’m local to SP-Teri and on the advice of my coach, sprung for custom SP-Teri boots. They cost a pretty penny and after weeks of waiting I finally got them this week! I went on the ice with them for the first time yesterday and my one big concern is that my heel doesn’t feel as secure as my old skates.
I’m meeting with my coach tomorrow morning and I’m going to ask him to take a look, but I am wondering about what is the protocol when it comes to asking for these types of adjustments for a custom boot? Are they able to reshape it with heat moulding or would there be a case where they have to re-do the entire boot?
I’m also not sure if it’s the case that the new boot (stiffness rated for single axel) is so stiff right now that I’m just not lacing it right enough.
Would love any insight or suggestions! Thanks
