SP-Teri Figure Skates

What makes SP-Teri figure skates a great fitting boot? Simple: the SP-Teri, last designed by Joseph Spiteri in 1963, allows the skater’s foot to lay flat in the boot for maximum comfort and control. Since 1963, the SP-Teri figure skate has been modified only three times to keep step with the evolution of the human foot.

For control, SP-Teri has always realized that skaters need a skating boot that fits snugly but not tightly. Instead of a pointed toe which can cramp the foot, the SP-Teri figure skate is designed with a rounded toe box. It allows the foot to get close to the end of the boots without squeezing the second, third and fourth toes. The arch of SP-Teri boots has been redesigned to accommodate the lower arches of today’s skaters, which is especially important for younger skaters whose feet are still developing.

SP-Teri boot’s heel pitch allows figure skaters to balance at the center of the blade. A boot with a high heel shifts the skater’s weight to the toe picks, and a low heel throws the weight back. Center balance on the blade gives the skater ideal body position for shifting weight.

The heel in the SP-Teri figure skate is designed narrow to hold the foot more securely. And the back curve holds the heel in a snug position for jumping control.
