- Breaking in ice skates can be very painful process. It takes weeks and sometimes well over a month to break in a pair.
- Thankfully with the development of certain technologies, leading skate manufacturers have began implementing the use of heat molding materials in their high level skates. These skates usually have a heat moldable attribute in their description.
- With the help of a skate oven a skater can hope to cut the break-in period nearly by 80%
- We suggest that the heat molding process is done at local pro-shop under the supervision of a trained skate technician
- There are certain pads manufactured by Absolute Athletics (Bunga Pads) which can remove or reduce the pain associated with the break in process. These pads can be found by clicking here
