Hi everyone,
I'm new here, but have read a lot of other posts. I can't seem to find any information about this issue I am having.
I am an adult skater and recently switched from Eclipse blades to MK Pros. I was told I will have to replace my boots in a few months and have been looking at various options. I currently have Riedell Diamonds (boot & blade combo). I'm not a huge fan of Riedell and do not want to go with them again. And Jackson's are too way too wide for me. Originally I wanted to go with the Edea Chorus boots, but my tech told me MK Pros are too long for them. I then chose to look at Risport, as they are fairly similar. She told me they also will not work with my new blades.
I'm not sure if this is useful information, but my Riedells are a size 7 1/2 and my blades are 10 1/4. Obviously it doesn't really help if I don't know my size in Risport or Edea, but I thought it was a good reference point. She ordered the same size in MK Pros as my Eclipse blades. But I know that MK's are longer than some other blades; they have a longer tail than my current blades.
Does anyone know anything about this issue and can give me any advice. It feels like I'm pretty much stuck with Riedell's and I'm really confused as to what to do. I've heard of other people having these blade and boot combos before, so I just don't understand why mine won't work.
Thank you
