Introduction and a blade question.
« on: October 23, 2014, 09:39:53 PM »

Hi everyone,

I tripped over this forum when I was searching on skating questions and I'm happy to be here!  I skated as a kid from before I could remember to 12, took a 30-something year break and picked it back up when one of my kids started taking lessons. I've passed Bronze moves.

Here's the blade question.  After skating in Edea chorus and MK pro for two maybe three years, I put a pair of Wilson Pattern 99's on my Edea boots. Tomorrow's my first time on the ice with them and I know the rocker is different. What should I expect?  Happily accepting tips to help with a smooth(er) transition. Thanks!

Welcome!!!  I hope the transition went smoothly for you- lots of people swear by their pattern 99's.

Wondering how it went @hangxanh?  I am considering these (from Coronation Ace) for my new boots.
