Hello (forum newbie here), my 12 yo daughter has been skating synchro for 3 years and will likely be starting on the juv team this summer. She skates freestyle a bit but isn’t competitive.
A few weeks ago, we bought a pair of boots that came with the Jackson ultima legacy blade. Her coach says she needs an ace blade or something similar. My husband is convinced at her level it doesn’t matter and that we should keep the blades we have. Our daughter says the toe pick is messing her up a little bit but she’s only been skating on them for a couple weeks. She skated on ace blades with her last pair.
Does the blade really matter for her level? Thoughts??
