Bruised both big toes when skating on sports court
Hi all, I've been skating for a little over 6 months, around 4 months ago I started skating in a pair of bont hybrids and they were far better then my previous starter skates.
Recently my venue has changed from polished concrete to a sports court surface and ever since this change I have been bruising my big toe under the toenail. It got bad enough to the point I lost one of the nails all together. I have attempted various lacing techniques and levels of tightness on the shoes suggested by team mates but haven't had any success so far.
I am happy to invest in an upgraded pair of skates but I'm fearful of spending money and having the same issue so I'm just reaching out to this community to see if anyone has any suggestions or advice for me. Anything you think of is welcome!
