How To Lace Figure Skates
如何系花样滑冰鞋的鞋带
Lacing figure skates correctly will make the ice skating experience more enjoyable. Correct lacing of figure skates is very important and must be done a certain way.
Here's How:
1. Loosen up the skates.
By pulling the laces out a bit, the foot can be put inside easily.
将鞋带稍稍抽松,以方便脚穿进鞋子。
2. Stuff the feet inside the boots.
Make sure the socks are straight and the foot is placed inside the boot all the way. Put the toe of the foot in first and then push the heel all the way down.
注意穿入时让袜子保持平整,并确认脚是否与冰鞋的每一处贴合。脚趾先穿入再将脚跟推入。
3. Tighten up the laces in the first half of the boot.
Work up from the toe to the ankle. Don't pull the laces too tight in this area. Just make sure that each pull is somewhat secure.
从足尖处将鞋带系至脚踝处。此时不要将鞋带系得太紧。只要确保每拉一次都达到一定的固定作用既可。
4. Tighten the laces the most where the foot and the ankle bends.
This is the most important part of lacing figure skates. Give the laces a good tug at this point and pull hard.
这是整个过程中最重要的一部分。用力拉紧脚和脚踝弯屈处的鞋带。
5. Next lace around the hooks.
Make a criss-cross pattern with the laces and pull with both hands around each hook. Some skaters like to put the laces over and under the hooks; others like to put the laces under and then over. Either option is correct. Again, don't pull the laces too hard. Leave some room for the ankle to bend.
用双手拉鞋带交叉绕过鞋钩。有些滑冰者喜欢将鞋带从上向下绕过每个鞋钩;有些则喜欢从下向上绕。这两种都是正确的。同样,不要将鞋带系得太紧。以让脚踝有弯屈的空间。
6. Finish with a secure bow.
It is recommended to double knot the bow. Some figure skaters leave the top hooks empty while breaking in new boots.
建议系完后打两次结。一些花样滑冰运动员将新鞋最顶端的鞋钩留空。
7. Tuck the bow's loops inside the tops of the boots.
This will prevent the blade from catching the bow's loops.
将结圈塞入鞋子顶部,防止被冰刀勾到。
