This is a pair of Freestyle skates that I recently delivered to an adult skater who is in the LTS program in the Quad Cities. She is super enthusiastic and has set some goals for herself which will be much easier to acheive with the proper pair of skates : ) In the first photo, you can see Miss Beans checking out the box. In the second photo, Miss Beans is lounging in the bathroom sink while I put my hair up in the mandatory coach's bun : )

I just delivered a pair of the updated Jackson Ultima Mystique skates to a skater in Basic 5 in the LTS program at ImOn Ice in Cedar Rapids. He started out LTS with the intention of getting into hockey, but realized that figure skating suited him much better : ) The Mystique now has a Mark IV blade instead of the Mark II, which has a more aggresive toe pick to make learning single jumps and spins much easier : )

This is a pair of Jackson Ultima Evo skates that I recently sold to a skater in Bettendorf who takes LTS lessons at the River's Edge ice arena in Davenport. She was pleasantly surprised with how much better they fit compared to the rental skates she had been using : ) Also pictured is Miss Beans - inspecting the box before I package the skates back up for delivery 😹 ⛸️

One of my adult students just upgraded their boots to the Edea Concerto from a five year old pair of Risports. She had already upgraded her blades fairly recently, so we were able to keep them. The blades are Jackson Ultima Apex Elite. After switching out the stock insole for one with more arch support and punching out the navicular area, she was happy with the results. She does have a narrow heel/ankle so we may still have to work on that. If you have a good skate tech, there are many different adjustments they can make to help your Edea (or any other brand) skates fit better : ) The second picture is of Mickey helping me to get ready to mount the blades : )

One of my students is upgrading their blades from the Jackson Ultima Legacy Lite 8 to the Jackson Ultima Apex Freestyle. Do you think she will like them? The Apex Freestyle blade has a more agressive toepick (agressive in a good way) to make double- and even triple jumps- a breeze : ) Both blades have an 8 foot rocker for added stability. Lainey and I currently use the Apex Freestyle blades and we have no complanints at all : )

Miss Beans was helping to inspect 7 pairs of skates that I sharpened on Sunday afternoon. I didn't mind it at all since my sharpener is in the basement which is cool even on the hottest of days : ) Thankfully we are getting a break from the heat on Tuesday.

This is a great snapshot of how many "paws" it takes to get a pair of skates ready for delivery : )

1. Satan is inspecting the package as soon as Fedex delivers it.
2. Miss Beans is making sure that I have correctly aligned the blades and that the laces are long enough. She is also checking that I have sharpened them to level with no chatter.
3. Finally, Pablo - the Senior Quality Control Vice-President - checks to make sure that the box itself meets our high standards.

This is a pair of Jackson Evo skates that was delivered to a very enthusiastic entry level skater from the Quad Cities. I just know that she is going to progress quickly now that she has the right skates : )

This is a pair of Jackson Ultima Evo skates that a lucky beginner level adult skater from the Iowa City area recently purchased. I was able to meet and measure her feet at the Coral Ridge ice areana - since I teach there on Wednesday and Friday afternoons. Once her skates arrived, we met at ImOn Ice in Cedar Rapids to check the skates for size and to heat mold them. Her initial reaction was how much better the skates fit compared to rental skates : )

The second picture is of our newest feline addition - Beans. My husband happened to get a cute picture of her curled up in a basket that we usually use for ripening tomatoes, pears, kiwis, etc. she really likes to be the center of attention in every room of the house : )

Miss Beans, the newest addition to our feline family, is showing an interest in the blade mounting process instead of quality control 😺 I don't know how to tell her that since she is not a polydactyl, there is no way she could handle that drill... Maybe she will just be happy to inspect the laces?
