Girls Ice Skates – Is there Any Major Difference?
It is no surprise that most ice skaters are women, especially those who are can so majestically move across the ice rink and make moves such as the insane ice spin that leave crowds gasping. To get to this level of skating does take time, lots of discipline and skill. Some of these ice skaters start skating from a very young age and build their skill over time thus enabling them to be able to perform such daring moves in precision and effect. Little girls who wish to become ice skaters can also start from an early age as there are now girls ice skates being made specially for girls. Parents can find these ice sakes from a number of manufacturers whether the ice skates are for a hobby or sport, there are many different kinds of ice skates available.
There are several manufacturers that make girls ice skates. Most girls choose to ice skate for recreational activities or more skilled in figure skating. As with other ice skates, ice skates for girls are made using certain fundamentals that form the basis of ice skates. One of these fundamentals is the use of the Radius of Hollow; this is used in measuring the size of the skate blade. In addition, there are two types of ice skates, mainly the Ice hockey skates and figure ice skates. As a beginner, most people and girls will not notice any difference but with skill development, there is a difference that can be felt. One of the main things that make the ice skates for girls different is a cushioned pad for added comfort; this pad enable and help girls stay on the ice rink for a longer period of time without feeling any pain or fatigue. In addition since most ice skates can be used for Freestyle skating (individual skating with jumps) or Dance, girls skate boots can accomplish these styles as well even though they are smaller in size. With figure skating, the toe pick on the ice skate boots can assist in jumps, spins and stops for the skilled skater, but it can be of little use to the beginner other than as a crude brake, and something to trip over! There are more expensive ice skate blades usually have stronger more durable picks that is suited to a more skilled ice skater. This can prove to be a risk to a beginner ice skater catching the toe pick unexpectedly can cause a seriously dangerous fall!
For parents and girls who want to join in the skating fun can do so with the specially designed girls ice skates. There are readily available from a number of brand name skates such as Jackson, Riedell and others. These ice skates could be the start of something special for these girls. After all, every successful move starts with one step.

With Nike Bauer Mega roller hockey skates what are the different wheel size formations that will fit?
The skates look like this: http://www.buzzillions.com/dz_2649527_men_nike_bauer_mega_pro_senior_roller_reviews
...and I do know that 72-72-80-78 will fit but are there any more formations that will fit? Thanks!
Well I'm pretty sure they do that because someone has a patent or liscence on the 72-72-80-80 hi-lo so the whels come on there like that but in reality you can just put on the high low if you prefer.
I have a pair of some bauer skate from last year that came with 72-72-80-78 and I have in 72-72-80-80. I read it somewhere before I bought and then they told me at the hockey store what I said above about not being allowed to sell it (or maybe they want to be different?) in the 80-80 but that it was designed to take it just fine.
I would say it would take 80-80. You wont be out anything to buy an extra pair of the 80's and try it and then you wont have to buy them the next time you replace your wheels if they dont fit, but I would guess they do.
