I was recently recommended to switch from Jackson to Risport from my coach. However, the only skate fitter nearby is trying to put me in Edea’s which I do NOT like the feel of. I am more of a traditional boot person and do not like how it feels like my ankles are loose in the Edea. My feet measurements are 25.3 cm on the right and 25.1 cm on the left with a width of 22cm on both. Looking at the size chart for Risport it is saying I am an A or B width when I was always told I had a wide toebox. I think this is because my pinky toe hits EVERYTHING even though they aren't necessarily wide. My heels are definitely on the narrow side compared to the rest of my foot. I need a boot and blade combination better for ice dance, as I was recently “grounded” from jumping by my doctor. The only problem is I am constantly scratching that bottom toepick on my current coronation ace blade. My coach seems to think this is a blade problem as she says my form is perfect on my edges and progressives and there is no reason it should still be scratching.
I am currently in a Jackson Debut firm in a size 8.0 wide. My blades are coronation ace 10 1/4 inch. I need a boot and blade combination for ice dance that I can progress with. I am satisfied with the boots, but not happy and thrilled in them like I was with my old customs. I am hoping to find a new boot that makes me happy and blades that are a better fit for me. I am 5 feet 5 inches and weigh 140 pounds if that helps. I am 29 years old. I am currently working on testing silver dance.
Let me know if any other information will help! I am open to any and all suggestions!
