TITLE: Pure Evil Blisters
My Tip:

You might like to know, after years of skating my feet have become possessed with evil demons. These can sometimes be called blisters.

First of all a nice pair of liners helps, currently my reign shimas are falling to pieces and the padding has disappeared. This causes that friction you may have learnt about in science class. I have found whenever I skate a new pair of liners the blisters keep at bay. Got some Jugs on the way now though, yesss.

Secondly, wearing a couple pairs of socks can help ease the friction between the foot and skate but still I feel the burn.

Finally I discover the cure! If you just go to your local millets or outdoor store you can find a pair of double layer walking socks, I found them cheaper on Ebay though. Some of these even have a no blister guarantee and you can get your money back if you do get a blister!

Anyway it made me happy so I thought I'd share.

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN

MY REIGN NEOPRENE LINERS FOR MY SHIMA 7'S ARE GIVING ME LOADS OF BLISTERS AROUND MY HEELS AND THE SIDES OF MY FEET YET THEY FIT ME VERY WELL

If you do get a blister, pop it and rub germolene on it once every hour and it'll heal a lot quicker.

 

I find that putting duc tape on a blister before a session helps a lot too, because the liner rubs against the tape instead of the skin.
