Collection: Figure Skating Accessories

There’s a few essentials that every figure skater needs in their bag to take their skating skill and ice skate care to the next level:
 

Skate guards: Protect your ice skate blades when walking around the rink.
 

Microfibre blade towel: Wipe your ice skates dry after your session on the ice.
 

Spare skate laces: So you never have to miss a session if a lace on your ice skate snaps.
 

Ice skate odour eaters: Avoid any lingering smells in your boots after an intense session on the ice.
 

Blade covers: Wick away any moisture left on the blade once you’re done skating.

Blade guards are typically made of plastic, and protect your steel from chips and dents when you’re walking around the rink in your ice skates. It’s vital to use blade guards to keep your skates protected whenever you’re wearing your skates off the ice, but make sure to remove them before putting your skates away as they’ll cause rust if left on wet blades.

Instead, you should store your ice skates in fabric blade covers after your session, to help wick away any remaining moisture that may be left on the blade after wiping them down.

Simply put, a lot of figure skaters choose to wear gloves to keep themselves warm on the ice! Wearing gloves also protects your hands from the ice during falls, and helps you with grip for elements where you need to grab your ice skate blade.
