Riedell skates
« on: June 15, 2015, 09:19:11 AM »
I need help!! My DD's skates are too small as they are about four years old. She only likes Riedell's as that is all she has ever known, Her old skates were model 91. Does anyone know if the current model is 910? also her coach recommends something for double jumps and there are so many to choose from. I am looking to get used or new but at a good price. My DD has started back skating after a long break and I don't know how long she will continue to skate as she is cheering for her high school, so obviously I'm not looking to spend lots of money on these!!

If they are only a little too small, you can remove the insole, or replace it with something thinner, and have the shop "punch" (stretch) the boot in tight spots.

But if she does need new boots her feet have fit non-custom Riedell skates well in the past, that seems like a good route to take. But LOL on not spending too much money on them!

Does cheerleading cost much money too? (E.g., does the school provide and pay for uniforms, lessons, travel, etc.?)

FWIIW, there is such a thing as cheerleading on ice:
