    I prefer the skate little bit looser because you can bend ankles little more and make more tight turns. but everybody has their own way to tighten skates. Its cool little trick but everyone uses what they like what feels best for them.

    Man, thanks for the tip! I've always had the hardest time getting skates that fit right. I was always one of those who wrapped hockey tape (and more recently skate laces) around my ankles. Of course now like 99% of the hockey community is pretty much screaming DON'T DO THAT, without offering an alternative apart from saving years for custom-fit skates from a hockey shop (and in my area there are none). I can't wait to try this trick out at the rink this weekend! :)

    I prefer to overlace - that is go into the loops from the top and out the bottom. This allows the lace to get trapped as they are tightened. The downside is that they are much harder to untie and loosen!

    Here's a trick that I learned about 25 years ago. I like the skate tight around my instep on up to the ankles, but loose on my toes. My feet are very narrow on the ankle, but very wide in the toe area. I use and old lace and tie the first 3 eyelets with it very loose. Then I use another pair of laces from that point up and tie them as tight as possible. I buy 84" laces for the second part.

      Loose down low and tighten up as the skate bends and then tighten hard on the last 3 or 4 holes. Helps prevent pain on the side of your foot. I personally just make it snug until the last 4 holes and make those as tight as possible but everyone is different!

      @@MegaDani00 Experiment. I have seen tutorials suggest the complete opposite of how Brandon described, and going tight at the bottom to loose at the top. The rationale is to increase dorsiflexion. We all have much different feet, flexibility, and feel so what works for one person may fail for another. Same with waxed vs cotton lace preferences. Play around with different styles and techniques to see what works best for you.

      converse 2016 there isn’t a way to stop it I’m assuming your new to skating or hockey and that why you get them they just go away over time
