BOOT SUPPORT
The first decision to be made before going to the store is what style of skates [figure or hockey]
is more appropriate. For a first time skater, this decision is not really critical. Kids will outgrow
skates long before the type of skate has a significant effect on performance.
The more important factor is the quality and support of the boot.
Modern skates provide firm support around the ankles. To accomplish this, the skate
manufacturer installs stiff leather inserts between the outer and inner layers of the boot. Old
skates may lack this stiffness; in used skates, it may be broken down from use or abuse. With
the skates laced up snuggly, the ankles should be straight so that the skate becomes a natural
extension of the leg. If the skater's ankles lean inward or outward, the skater will have difficulty
balancing (particularly on one foot).
