cool mate, i play ice hockey and all the vector skates are good, the 2.0 upwards are ok for ice hockey so the 3.0 they are sending you will be more than strong enough for rec skating

hence the name death wellies, my mate toe picked we went and fell down like a sack of shit still makes me laugh thinking about it now, its good fun

Thats how my dad lost top part of 1 of his fingers in a pro hockey game
He went flying on the ice, his glove came off and someone ran over his hand going for the puck which was beside him

imo when skating u get too types of people there ones that can skate who if u fall infront of them will jump over u or stop and the ones that cant skate or not well who will just fall over u never seen anyone get hands cut never mind cut off
its different in an hockey game as people are perposly going into u so is easier to get caught on there skates

I can skate really well, but I can't turn right I'm screwed if everyone's going clockwise

I'm right side dominant, so can skate fine - turning left isnt a problem as I lead with my right foot, but can't do it the other way round 
at that pic too

Ice skating is my worst nightmare!
If i see ice when i'm walking I try to avoid it....so theres no way i'm gonna pay to go on it whilst trying to balance on a narrow piece of metal blade!

Bauer & graf are the best 
Well, some of the high end Bauer ones are alright. Don't really know too much about the cheaper ones though.
I used to play Ice Hockey for years & played roller hockey for even longer. Not done it in years though since the Dr told me I had to stop (And I got banned )
I ran over my own fingers once Hurt lots
