I just got fitted for new skates!!!!!!!!! Im so excited. I got SP-Teri super Teri CL boots and pattern 99 blades. Unfortunaly I have to wait 2 weeks to get them and have to compete with my old broken down silver stars at a competition in about 2 weeks. They are so broken down and below my level (blades too!!) that my coaches said that if I don't do well they completely understand. Oh well, nothing I can do I guess. I will update as soon as I try them out!

SKATING: It's the feeling you get at the end of a hard practice when you pushed yourself to the limit. It's a part of YOU, something you LOVE and HATE. A bond that NO ONE ELSE understands, but that's okay, because every time you get out on the ice it isn't just you; it's all the friends and coaches, all the practices, the pain, the tears, the memories,the laughter, the "off" competitions. It may seem, skating is really a team sport, it's more than just a sport. IT'S A WAY OF LIFE."

Congratulations! It will be worth the wait I suspect. I'm still at a bit of indecision about whether to buy SP Teri or Klingbeil whenever I can manage to afford skates again.
