Hi everyone!
I'm an adult beginner skater (26 years old) from Indonesia. I started to learn figure skating about 1 year ago, I've already started doing waltz jump, salchow, toe loop, half flip, half lutz. I've been wanting to get new boots and blades since my first boots were second-hand (Risport RF4), however in my country there don't seems to be any professional fitters, and skate shops here usually don't have boots in stock so we have to pre-order it without getting fitted.
Please advise on what should I do.. Do I really need to change my boots immediately and look for an online fitting appointment? (boots and blades recommendations are very welcome!)
Or can I still use my skates and wait until next year to buy a new one? because I have a plan to go on vacation next year to Singapore, and maybe there are professional fitters there I'm not sure..
