Heel Lifts in Ice Skates

Some ice skaters have the sensation that their heels are lifting out of their skates and the general feeling that it does not fit properly. A heel that is pistoning in the skate can cause undo pressure on the forefoot. This will also improper energy transfer on the ice skate.

One of the simplest correction of a heel lifting in the ice skate is to add a cork heel lift. The most common heel lift used is the Atlas Biomechanics 3mm (1/8") cork heel lift. The 6mm (1/4") cork heel lift could also be used for more severe cases.

Usually, the 3 mm ( 1/8 inch ) cork heel lift is placed under the ski boot's insole. They also can be stacked for a higher correction. This will cause the best alignment. This will allow the heel lift to sit firmly at the bottom of the ski boot for optimum control and comfort.
