For the longest time, the OSU ice rink had a sterling reputation for skate outfitting. There was an older fellow named "Duke" who did superb fittings. I have purchased several pairs of skates from Duke/OSU over the years. But it's been almost 10 years since I purchased new skates, and am looking around for possible replacements. The leather linings in my current boots are cracking.
Well, Duke retired.
Is the OSU rink still the preferred pro-shop in central Ohio despite the loss of Duke's services and skills?
