"We need to go viral with jumps and backflips!!!" Is actually the entirely wrong approach to get more people to watch figure skating (@ISU). What we DID need to get people interested in the sport was more gay figure skating anime in the form of the Yuri on Ice movie! So actually we can blame mappa and the cancelation of ice adolescence for the empty seats at competitions and the imminent death of figure skating! Screw you mappa!

Skates that I think the modern AU characters would used based on vibes alone

and a little bit of canon

Tech: Riedell Aria 3030

Grew up using Edeas but once Lux convinced him to try Riedells he never went back. Very picky, keeps his boots polished and gets very upset when he accidentally gashes the leather. Replaced them every season, on the dot. His blades have his nickname etched in them because it’s never used on competition. Refuses to let anyone but Crosshair sharpen the blades and has the slightest of pronation on his dominant left foot. Started with Pattern 99s but they were too wide for him and he looked like a newborn foal trying to skate.

Crosshair: Edea Pianos and MK Pro revolutions

Baby boy needs that narrow foot and extra ankle support. Tells people to deal with him mixing brands. Doesn’t jump, like ever, but if he needed to he is a toothpick and would not manage to get off the ground if he tried anything with non revolution blades. Still almost floats away though. Hardest thing he does is keep up with Tech. Ironically, doesn’t sharpen his blades like ever despite being the resident sharpener (then complains when he can’t do anything).

Fives- Jackson premier fusion 

Thinks it’s absolutely hilarious that his boots have a stiffness rating of 69. Hasn’t replaced his boots no matter how much Lux and Tech tell him to. These bad boys are held together by duct tape and a prayer. It’s no wonder he hasn’t landed a double axel yet. Stubborn as hell. Secretly wishes they had pretty gemstones like Edea. Has no idea what blades he has and that may be part of the problem, but at least they’re blue. 

Lux- Aria 3030s and Pattern 99s

Same model as Tech. Refuses to be in the same vicinity as Edea, calls them overpriced pieces of leather but admits the gemstones are kind of cool. Swiss to the core (Riedells are a Swiss brand). Has his old pair mounted like a trophy because it’s the pair he landed his first quad jump in. Has to replace boots every 9 months because he can’t stand the slightest crease in the tongue and says it affects how he lands (Fives says ‘skill issue’). It’s a good thing he’s sponsored.  Also has his name engraved on them because most international competitors do.

Tup- Jackson Debuts and Riedell Eclipse blades

Absolutely DESPISES high cut boots. Technically these are dance boots but he couldn't care less. Has special skate covers to prevent smudges because he’s a diva. Begged for the Riedell selene blades because of how pretty they are, and stubbornly insists he will still be able to do everything. All about the aesthetic

Omega- Edea ice flys, legacy 8 blades

Saw the amount of gemstones and decided there wasn’t enough. Now there are RAINBOW gemstones. Keeps all her old skates because they are masterpieces. Outgrows them like no one’s business and is praying for the day she can upgrade to pianos, then she will have MORE room for gemstones. Legacy 8 blades because she is babey and needs more muscle before she can get anything heavier. Once she’s at an 8 foot rocker she will be unstoppable.

Let us observe how a figurous skatoris expresses distaste for his fellow mammalian.
