Hello! I’m currently in recreational level skates, Riedell Opals. I was not properly fitted for them, since I had thought I’d only be using them a couple times a year just so they were more comfortable than rentals. I’m in pre-freeskate and have skated for a little over a year. Do you think I should get new skates before learning more advanced moves (single jumps, sequences, etc...)? And if I should what are some recommendations for blades? I’ve only done the one foot spin with a 3-turn entry (maybe? I’m not sure what it’s called), but I know I tend to go really close and sometimes on the toe pick. I’m pretty sure it’s a technique problem, but it would be good to know if there were blades that would help prevent that problem.
Thank you!
Thank you!
