I'm in Freestyle 4 and I can spin and I almost have my loop jump. My skates are about 2 sizes to big so it's harder than it would be normaly. Can you give me any sugestions on what skate I should get. Wheather it's the boots and blades seperate or together (preferably together)...Thank You!

  1. quit isi and start testing in usfsa while you're still learning! please please please!


  2. I'm officially in Freestyle 3 but I'm on my axel now, and I've been wearing Riedell Bronze Star 320 since Delta.

    Maybe the Silver Star would work for you too... I'm getting new skates in May because my skates are small now. Had then for a year!

  3. get smaller size skates.  The best skate fitter at your pro shop should fit your skates.  It depends on what kind of foot you have for the brand.  You need to check out different ones to make sure they fit you.  At freestyle 4 you should get blade and boot separately.  I have Spteri with a MK pro blade.

  4. I usually recommend Riedells to beginning skaters.  I have never worn them, but have met many happy customers.  Go to their website, riedellskates.com, and check their usage chart.  Match your skill level to their skate/blade sets.  I'm not an expert on Riedells, but you'd probably be in their medallion skates.  Your best bet is to go to your skate shop and get properly fitted.  While you can get away with skates being a 1/2 size big, 2 sizes can have an effect on your skating.  At the shop, they can order your size/width and the suggested boot/blade model.  The boot/blade sets are usually cheaper than buying the boot and blade seperately.  Good luck!

  5. Riedel LS1310, Silver Star355 or Bronze Star 320 will go with the Wilson Jubilee is a versatile, entry-level Grade 1 blade specially designed for competitive skaters. The Jubilee provides exceptional mobility and performance in an affordable all-purpose blade.
