Now I am far from a good skater- my nickname on my jersey says "No Brakes" for a reason. However with these new skates I can actually almost keep up with the guys who played AA hockey; and I can actually stop now.

Prior to this I had a pair of $60 skates from Canadian Tire. The new skates are a world of difference.
What type of skates were they?
