How did you tie up your skates

Recommended Posts

Here's a picture comparing a backlaced and a non-backlaced skate, side by side. Graf makes the best laces IMHO, I just don't like it how my LHS doesn't carry white waxed laces, only yellow, and no longer than 84"  :angry:

well i cant see any difference... :ph34r:

How do you back lace ?

i dont know it :(

how about making a small video? :D

Look at the very top eyelet and you'll see how the laces at the top went from the outside-in as opposed to the inside-out. It's hard to see by looking at the laces on the rest of the skate, but just look at the top eyelet and you'll easily see it.

Go take an old shoe, and try this.

Instead of coming up underneath right along the tongue and pushing the lace through the eyelet towards the outside of the shoe/skate, do it oppositely. Take the lace towards the outside of the boot, and feed it through the eyelet so it is pushing towards the tongue of the shoe/skate.
