Like everyone else I want to be able to play my best and I know there are a ton of good expensive skates out there. I have been using a Bauer, maybe $50.00 or so and have no complaints. My foot seems to fit well and they do not hurt. Of course I always think to myself that I could skate better with a better skate, but I am not so sure of it yet.

I know the biggest thing with higher line skates is the support. Will more support make you a better skater or incur less injuries? Like I had mentioned in the past I can see the differences in roller blades but not so much in ice skates.
