I have been skating alot this summer(almost everyday) and i have been making it a habit to take out my skates to dry after skating but they won't dry out. the are still moist on the inside the next morning.

Is there anything i can do or do i just accept this?

Here's what I do--

Loosen the laces and pull the tongue forward as far as possible.
Take out the insoles if they are removable.
(If possible, consider placing them on a towel or other surface that won't be hard on the blades and removing the terry cloth soakers.)
Place the skates in front of a fan, angled so that the air flows into the skates, with the insoles nearby so that they can air out, too.

If you don't have a fan, you can also place them in front of an air conditioning vent. You may have to place them on top of something so that they're able to be in the flow of air.

When they're done drying, be sure to put the insoles back in--you probably wouldn't want to arrive at the rink for your next skating session only to find you've left your insoles behind!!!

(Also--before you've even left the rink, be sure to wipe down your blades and the sole/heels of all moisture. If you can place them on the floor of the front seat of your car and direct the air flow, you can even have them start airing/drying out on your way home.)

Edited to add: Tee-hee, it's funny that your screen name is hydroblade and you're asking about damp skates, since hydro = water

You can get inserts that you can put into your skates when you take them off and by the time you get home they have absorbed most of the moisture and odour

The Inserts I bought are called K2 Drypac, and I bought them at a store in Vancouver called The Running Room. I imagine you can get them, (or something similar) at any high-end athletic shoe store that caters to runners and joggers. I have never seen them in your average run-of-the-mill sporting goods stores.

I have done this!!

In the winter, I used to set my skates upside down on a metal grating a few feet above a radiator-style heater. These days I set them on the couch in the living room where the sun comes up in the morning and shines on them. I hadn't thought of the fan, though I'll definitely start using it sometimes. I've been known to blow-dry out the inside of the skates which does a great job but is a bit labor-intensive. It seems to kill off god-knows-what bacteria too, smells terrible at first while doing it but results in much cleaner-smelling skates.
