Scottish Maple Leaf 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2006 Can anyone help here?I have a little boy who is 2 1/2 years old. He has been skating since he could walk. Just now he has a size 5 foot. He currently wears a little pair of white moulded Lange skates that secure with a buckle. They are normal bladed skates with an insole. Whilst in Canada last year I got him a pair of CCM skates in the smallest size available (I think they are an 8/9). However he is now getting too big for his Lange skates but the CCM ones are still too big for him.I've searched about but as usual nothing available in the UK. The only thing I can see on line is the Bauer Champ skates but I've never seen them on sale.Can anyone suggest anything or does an LHS workers/owners have anything that I could buy from you.As usual, any help appreciated.

They however had very stiff ankles and he adapted well. Getting them to fit makes a big difference. Stiff ankles makes a huge difference when they start.
