theyre fine for what i'm doing now.
Yes, they probably are fine for what you're doing now. Great! Go as far as you can with them! I just wanted to warn you that your next pair would probably have to be something with more support. It sounds like you have a plan for that (though do check with a fitter to make sure the EDEAs are a good fit for your feet - try other brands, too). It always makes me sad when I see people who have trouble doing things on the ice because their skates just aren't up to the job. Glad you're not going to be one of them!

I wear custom lightweight Harlicks in Holiday Tan (for synchro mainly). I've always worn custom Harlicks because I have very narrow feet (AA front, AAAA heel), and I've never had a single problem with them!

I finally bit the bullet and got fitted for custom SP Teris. I have a C width ball of my foot and an A width heel, plus my feet are two different lengths. I'm hoping this will get me over the trouble I've had getting my skates to fit. Unfortunately, I'm without skates until they're finished being made, though.
