Hi all,
I am new here. I am in search of a new boot, because after skating in my current skates (and getting a slight ankle injury), i finally realized my boots were too big! I dont think my local skate shop is a good idea because they are very hockey heavy, so I dont know if they will know much about figure skates.
I am an adult skater and my highest jump is just a single lutz, and will probably work on single axels soon.
I recently injured my ankle skating with Jackson Competitor 7.5B. I've always had trouble with those boots, making my feet really sore, but I always just thought it was not broken in yet.
I measured my foot and it is about 236-239cm (without-with socks), so after my coach saying Edea ice fly would be ok for me, I ordered a 240B... they were soo tight, that I returned them and got a 250C. They seem mostly good except for one spot on my left 3rd toe, which feel like there is a slight bend. I have the aboriginal foot type, if that matters (2-3rd toes slightly longer than 1st toe).
So I'm not sure if I should get the Ice Fly in 255C, or punch out that one spot that feels tight in my current 250Cs.
And after doing a bunch of research on here, I'm not even sure if I should get Ice Fly, since many are saying its way too "advance" for others that are my level.
Please advise me!
Thank you!
