Wheels and Toe Stops

I didn't practice last night. So I didn't get to try out the stretches for my calves. Definitely going tonight. Not just because I missed last night, but because I got these in the mail today and I have to try them out.

My new Web Toe Stops


In the evolution of my skates, I have replaced my wheels and now my toe stops. From what I have researched, the round are better than the rectangular that came with my skates.

My skates, new wheels, old stops...

Now, new wheels, new toe stops....

I have had a problem with starting on my toes. I felt like I was going to fall over on my face. I had adjusted my old stops so that they were lower, but they still felt unstable. These are AWESOME! I have been wearing them around the house, because I couldn't wait to see what the felt like. Now to see what they are like at practice. Please don't tell my husband I was skating in the house.
