A pint of blood. 130ish shipped. Westside skate in NY. Graf only does the yoith skates once a year in August so once the sell you get to hunt them down. In August I will be buying the next size. These wont last as long hes growing already.

Yeah I found a sharpener I think we will be sticking with. So hopefully this problem is over. I took his old ones in amd he explained why they were being done wrong and how he would do them.


EJ I grabbed him the graf yellow laces in his size when I grabbed them. When he got home from the math enrichment program my wife has him in he gets all jacked when he sees them runs over, but immediately says "wheres my green laces" I cant complain its the only dusty thing he likes to do.

Took him out last night he was happy actually having some toe on his skates. Skated well and was much more confident in doing transitions at speed.
