What is the Difference Between a Hockey
Skate and a Figure Skate?
A figure skating blade has toe picks at the top and
is usually longer and heavier than a hockey blade.
Also, figure skate boots are usually made out of
leather and are much more expensive than hockey
skate boots.
Most of the time, a figure skate blade is
separately mounted onto a figure skate boot
but hockey skate blades are generally soldered
directly onto the hockey boot's base.
Hockey skate boots are usually much more
comfortable than figure skate boots.
The toe picks on figure skate boots make it possible
to jump and spin.
The short light blade on hockey skates help players
with speed and quick stops
