Most suitable figure skates
I take figure skating classes irregularly (once a year), so my progression is really slow, but I have slowly gotten to a level where I think it's necessary for me to have proper figure skates.
The rentals worked fine but now we're moving onto cross-overs and beginner spins. I was planning on just getting the cheapest skates at my local rink: Jackson Mystique Figure Skates or Risport Venus Figure Skates ($300 aud) but I'm not too sure now.
I saw a couple people saying something about hard/soft skates too. Also i weigh around 45-47kg (still a teen) so I want skates that will last me a comfortable amount of time.
Which skates should I invest in?
Also since I don't go too regularly I don't think I should spend much over $300.
