There have been lots of mixed reactions on Edea skates, mainly Ice Flys.
My mom is willing to pay for Edeas, but before we go possibly waste over one thousand dollars on a pair of skates, I would like some opinions.
(If you are comfortable, please state you age and relation to skating. e.g.: I am a 14 year old skater. I skate four days a week and do not compete freestyle, but i have completed my senior moves and am working on my novice free test)
My main issues would be:
-structure (i have pronounced bunions, one on each foot, long arches and short toes, and a wide front but small heel and narrow ankles)
-support/stiffness (it took me awhile to get used to my current boots- Jackson Elite 4200)
-blades (what blades are more compatible with the Ice fly boots)
-dealers (my regular skate guy- Mike Cunningham in Maryland, doesn't sell or fit Edeas. Does anyone know the closest Edea dealer around Washington DC/ Maryland that's not competition based?
-durability (i need these to last at least a year on mild to strenuous skating)
-actual weight (do they actually feel a lot lighter?)
Thank you very much!
