Where can I get cheap and good ice-skates in Singapore?

I%26#039;m just a student in Singapore and enjoy ice-skating. I%26#039;ve started ice-skating but feel that the rental skates are insufficient for what I want to do. I want to buy skates but then the skates are pretty expensive. Is there any other ways to get skates? Even second-hand ones are alright if they%26#039;re in good condition.

In rinks without a pro shop, there%26#039;s usually one coach who measures and orders skates. You%26#039;ll need to ask who that person is and find out how much s/he feels a good pair of beginner skates would cost. The cost should be somewhere between 120SGD and 160SGD, plus shipping. (You%26#039;ll also have to find out who sharpens skates since that%26#039;s a necessary maintenance.)





You can order off the internet, but you have to know what brand, model, and size you need. This is difficult to do without trying on skates. If you%26#039;re comfortable in the rental skates, find out what brand they are and go to their website to check out the models.





If you could get a pair of hand-me-down skates for little/no money, take them. Make sure they fit, of course, but you%26#039;re 14 so you%26#039;re still growing. You might outgrow the skates before they break down. If you ask around the rink, there could be someone with an old pair of skates that they could sell/give to you.





Don%26#039;t worry about the color of skates you buy. You can have white skates dyed black or put plastic tape over them. It%26#039;s more important that the skates work well than look good.
Reply:There%26#039;s a shop at Fuji Ice Palace at Jurong East Entertainment Complex that sells them. Or shop online for a pair.
