Hello everyone! Sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if I could get some advice on getting new blades.
I'm an adult skater in my 20s, I've skated since I was really young but took a lot of breaks and have recently picked it up again. I'm currently on a really old WIFA skates with a beginner level blade (the lettering on both the blades and skates have faded so I don't have any idea what exact model they are).
In terms of my skating I have my single jumps (minus the axel) down, as well as combos. The axel I'll start working on soon. I have all the basic spins (scratch, sit, camel) down and don't struggle with speed but do struggle with centring my spins.
After much consideration and research I'm upgrading to the Edea Chorus boots. I'm having more difficulty picking a blade. I've narrowed it down to the Coronation Ace and the Ultima legacy 7. I'm just struggling with which to choose. If anyone with more experience could give me some pros and cons? Especially in terms of lasting me through my doubles. I've read that they both have a crosscut toe-pick and are overall pretty similar but I'm still really curious to hear your opinions and experiences.
P.S. If I do end up going for the CA I'm debating between the standard version or the lite version so if anyone could give me some advice picking between those two that would be lovely aswell
Thank you so much!
