Finally Bought New Skates!!!!

As many of you know I have been trying to figure out which new skates to buy, have gotten lots of feed back from everyone and really appreciate it. I bought Graf Galaxy skates today!! I skated on them at the rink immediately and was able to do a spiral no problem. They fit perfectly, might need some toe punching out but there shouldn't be any break in period. Also found out that my last blades were mounted incorrectly so hopefully this will help with my scratch spin and other spins. They were expensive but quite worth the money!!!!!!

Re: Finally Bought New Skates!!!!

JCD1 - happy skating in your new Grafs.
You're lucky that they don't need any breaking in.
Mine were like that too. It's great!
