Hi! I need some help with choosing new skates and blades.
I'm 15 years old, 1.55m, average weight. Currently i am in the risport electra lights paired with MK flight blades. My spins (scratch, sit, camel and back scratch) are not centered and I cant hold sit spin for very long. I find i also have some problems with jumps like flip. I feel like I just 'pick' too much into the ice and make a big hole, if that makes sense? I can do all single jumps accept axel and now working on lutz.
My main concern are the blades, i think i need an upgrade, i'm thinking about getting john wilson coronation ace or MK pros. can anyone tell me the difference between these?
I also thought about the boots: risport rf3 pros or edea chorus? am i over- or under booting? Or should i just stay in risport electra?
(p.s. I know I have to get them fitted in a shop, I just want some insight about what would be the best so I know where to go and tell them what to order.)
