Vyper,
I'm 50 plus and still playing. Quality skate sharpening and skate fitting are very important. I'll pretty much buy any equipment at the going price in a shop that does fitting and sharpening well.
Typically you find teenaged rink rats working shops and they have zero experience.
Perani's is a huge equipment suppier in S.E. Michigan and we also have good shops in Windsor.
