Walker Ice & Fitness Center issued the following announcement on Feb 4.
Do you know which skate your child should use if they're learning how to ice skate?
This graphic gives an excellent breakdown between hockey and figure skates.
You can start with either one. Figure skates may be a little easier to start on as they have a longer, wider blade.
If you have questions or need help choosing the right style for your skater, reach out to our Ice Director, Mike Fountain
