Inline figure skating...

I feel like there’s a lot of random theories and criticism flying around about Zhenya’s boot problems at Nationals. Here’s two tweets from Ashley Wagner and one from Jackie Wong that give some insight into elite skaters and their boots. Not saying that they’re speaking for Zhenya or all skaters, though.

A review on Edea figure skates.

What makes Edea one of the most successful companies in the figure skating world? Their unique figure skates, of course! Edea creates skates for all levels of the sport from novice to senior and has many different boots available to choose from; Brio, a boot designed with a beginner or casual skater in mind is exceptionally comfortable. It is incredibly flexible at the ankle, providing ease when learning to skate at a basic level. The Overture and Chorus skates are slightly more expensive sold at the prices of £189.99 and £250.00 but will last a novice skater longer than the Brio as it has better support and flexibility allowing for skaters who are developing their single or double jumps to do so without risking injury. 

Edea’s most popular boot is the Ice fly, it is a personal favourite and the boot I use to skate competitively. The boot is fantastic; it offers maximum support allowing for triple and quadruple jumps to be performed flawlessly and is also tremendously comfortable. The Ice fly is also the lightest skating boot available, adding extra grace and elegance to every performance. Unlike traditional leather boots that weigh you down during jumps, it is designed with lightness in mind allowing skaters to move freely during a routine. It also has a shorter break-in period, whereas with leather boots you’d be skating for weeks on end trying to loosen them up the Ice fly, made with memory foam helps to limit this time and allows for great use right from the get-go. The boot is quite expensive, ranging from £400.00 to £450.00 depending on foot size. It will only last about a year or two before wearing out, despite this I believe that the Ice fly is worth an investment especially if you compete on the regular or are trying to perfect those triple and quad jumps.

 Many professional skaters use the Ice fly boot and are completely in love with them, such as Gracie Gold the US champion from 2014 to 2016 or 2018s Olympic gold medallist Alina Zagitova. Alina even went as far as to describe skating on the Ice fly boots as feeling like ‘flying through the rink’, and I couldn’t agree more. I feel like the Ice fly figure skates help me give the best performance I’m able to every single time I step out onto the ice. Edea figure skates are all amazing quality boots, and I would highly recommend them to any skater out there no matter what level they may be. The skates are a bit on the pricey side but I still wholeheartedly believe that they help each and every skater reach their maximum potential in both training and competition.
