Difference Between Hockey Skates & Figure Skates
A figure skate’s blade is its single most recognizable feature. This style has a toe pick at the front of the blade. The jagged teeth-looking design at the tip makes it appear longer and heavier than a hockey blade.
Hockey skates, on the other hand, is a rigid boot typically made of leather or plastic. They are usually made of plastic to protect the feet from hard objects like hockey pucks and sticks. The short, light blade on hockey skates helps players with speed and quick stops.

- Blade Material - Lightweight aluminum and stainless steel blades are popular blade materials. You should choose blades that correspond to your skating level.

One of the most important things you can do before skating is to make sure that they are laced properly. Here’s how it’s done:
- Loosen up the skates
- Put your feet inside the boots
- Tighten up the laces starting at the first half of the boot
- Wrap the laces around the hooks
- Double knot and tie a tight bow just how you would tie regular shoes
