Hi there!
I’m new here and I would really appreciate some advice on picking out my first pair of ice skates.
Some background info: I’m 18, I’m 155cm tall and my weight is around 47kg. I been doing a lot of research recently on good ice skates however it’s a bit difficult.
Im looking to take lessons next year and learn to skate properly. Maybe 2-3 hrs a week. I’ve been a lot of times in the past as a recreational skater and I would say I’m a fast learner. I’m already past a uk level at skating so I’m not too much of a beginner. I would like to learn jumps and spins as I do a lot of off ice training already.
I need skates that will last a while especially if I progress quickly, but also be a reasonable price range. I’m willing to spend a bit more on good skates. I was leaning towards Jackson or Edea but don’t know which ones.
I would go to skate shop to get fitted but there’s not any nearby.
Thank you for the help
