Can they be enough "what skates to buy" questions??????
ok here is mine. What skates to you buy for a child that is taking a break from testing/competing? My dd is shy of 8 years old, fs6, preliminary skater. She suddently developed an infatuation for another sport. Financially we can not do both so she is taking a break from skating but she still skates once a week for fun. That was going well for a couple of months but now she outgrew her skates and needs new. I kind of feel bad to down grade her skates but does it make sense to spend 300$ -400$ for recreation? What do you guys think?
Another question. I am wondering how long she will keep her current skating level by skating only once a week. So far so good except that she started overrotating some of the jumps.
thanks!
