Dear Mike:
I appreciate the broad scope of information, thank you. Since I would rather
go to a store to try on would I be better to wait for spring?
regards
NEIL

Hello, reallyneil!
As far as I know, there are 2 stores in NYC that you can find decent skates
in: Paragon on 19th street and Broadway and Blades-Board and Skate. The BB&S
has 3 locations: 659 Broadway(beetween Bleeker & 3rd), Manhattan mall @ 901
6th ave & 33 str., and 156 West 72nd street(between Broadway and Columbus).
Just please keep in mind that BB&S store has lost most of the inventory in
the wearhouse fire a few months ago and also it is "off sesaon" period, so
nither store is placing any orders on skating equipment or gears.
Your best shot might be(if you are comfortable with a particular
manufacturer and type of boot/frame) to order on-line and then custom mold in
the
store...but this is just a suggestion.
Good luck and hope to see you in the group one day!
Mike G
