Oh, got it! I see people using the quad skates and I feel like my nacle will snap without the cuff holding it in place 🤣
I don't know how the speed skaters manage without it

My first quad skates were derby/speed skates! They’re super low cut so your ankles can do a full range of motion ~ at one point I could extend my leg out and get my ankle bone nearly parallel to the ground.
My body didn’t like it. It was like, “you’re 40; at least TRY to be graceful once in awhile.”
