Advice on what to do next
Hello!
Firstly, thank you to everyone in this community, as a lot of your advice/posts helped me improve.
Onto my dilemma…
I passed adult LTS 6 and now I’m not sure what to do. My rink has adult FS, but the skate shop I went to when I initially started put me in Jackson Mystiques. I later learned that that might not have been the best option considering I’m 5’8” and 180lbs. I also learned they are not good blades for turns and spins, which explains my struggles. Obviously there will be a lot more of that in FS.
The issue is that I was laid off last year (🥲) and can’t really afford to upgrade right now, so does it make sense to sign up for FS, or should I wait until I can find a job and just keep practicing what I know?
Thanks in advance!
