Thanks from the UK!
Very informative video thanks
that's the goal. Thanks for watching!
Always laced my skate from the outside in, opposite of what you're doing. By lacing your skate my way you'll never get lace bite and as you tighten them the laces won't slip.
I don't get pain but my right ankle rattles about. I have skates 2 sizes down from my shoe size. I could tighten them super tight but then I can't bend my ankle.
it might be a volume issue where the skate, even though length wise fits well has more room than you need around that ankle. tighten them as needed, but remember don't let the top curl around the front. That's what will stop you getting over your toes.
What about tying the laces around your ankle if there too long?
wrapping the lace can do one of two things, make the top too tight/stop forward flexion or create space which will lead the the skate loosening throughout the game. go with shorter laces or just double them up.
My laces always loosen up after 1 round of skating around the ice and that makes the upper side of my boot really loose and that makes my feet hurt a lot any tipps?
Wax laces
My feet go numb if I tighten the middle part. I can only tighten the bottom 3 and top 2 laces
that's most likely an issue with fit, the skate not being deep enough for your foot.
I have a lot of issues with foot pain and numbness as i overtighten them as it feels like i have to much movement rolling to the outside. The boots seem to fit well around the ankle and dont slip.
Any advice?
Did you try getting them baked?
I would need to see the fit for myself. If there is that much movement or that necessity to tighten so much my first thought it too big.
leave them in the sun and make sure the sun hits the liners. I left my for 20 minutes then I wore them while mowing my front and back lawns. That's how I broke them in.
what size skates and laces are in this video
I don't tighten my skates untill my ankle and leave everything below loose
just using Lace Skate Tightener Ice Puller
end of story.. hehe
It's the same if you're using your fingers or a hook as long as you arrive at the same result.
Yea.. before I knew the problem..
I always use my bare hands and I realized the laces always weren't as tight as I needed when i rode the skates a couple minute..
even though it felt like I had tied it as hard as I could... until my hands hurts on..
Then my buddy gave me that small HOOK
Oh GOD. this thing works like a GEM!@@GotHockeyPod
One issue with this method is that leaving the top two eyelets open can create an issue re-lacing them with shin guards on as access to the holes becomes more difficult for the player.
If you have an issue with lace bite, then do not lace the top eyelet. The other benefit is more ankle mobility in your stride.
Waxed laces. Waxed laces. Waxed laces.
Finally, if you still have food discomfort after trying this method, then this is what I do. Put skates on, take slack out, do some kick-backs, then stand up. Center your weight on your feet to where they feel planted in the footbed. Then tighten your skates with your weight on your feet.
This allows your feet to be in the "shape" they will be in when you're actually staking, and help prevent your skates from binding up your feet. You can still overtighten your skates doing this.
if your shin pad is in the way, just move the shin pad up until you're done. Waxed laces or not if the skates are evenly tight and there's no slack anywhere there is nowhere for any of the lace to go. I don't so much care either way whether someone prefers waxed or non as long as the skate is tightened properly.
@@GotHockeyPod yes. Obviously you would move the shin guard. Though, if you've run tape around it already ...
Just pointing out that leaving the top eyelets empty and then threading them after your gear is on isn't always going to be a cake walk once you don't have a parent or coach helping you lace them up.
The other advantage to waxed laces is they tend to stay fixed/tight in areas you don't need to loosen (i.e. down near the toe and bridge) to get your skates back off. This gives you a lot more available length in your laces ... likely making it to where you don't have to leave any eyelets empty.
