Review of my Shoes! 2019-02-05

RAINSTAR ZIP-UP BOOTS

First off, Totally Fashionable.Lots of accessories, buckles, laces, boot-pulls, and zippers :). These seem to be made of Rodger's Poron. They absorb SHOCK, and breath while staying warm. They should be a good 3 season boot. I had to cut the top three buckles off, due to fit issues, but that just makes getting dressed faster. Once you adjust the laces you can just zip and go.

Once the winter weather clears up a bit, I will be wearing thse with some Fetchy Pleated Skirts from HOT TOPIC. The boots themselves are from RAINSTAR on Amazon.com.

Also, thse boots totally helped me survice the Negative 35 degree Farenheit and snow.

SHOES FOR CREWS, FALCON II

I converted thse to slip-ons just by mashing down the heal suport. The heal support is too firm and high, made for weaklings and cuts into the Achillies.  They do have the same nice WIDE fit as FALCON I's; however, they do not breath as well.  The price is on point, for less than $50.00, but the FALCON I's are infinately better.

Sansha Blitz

These are about my 8th pair of Sansha Blitzes. I usually get Red & Black. I just like those colours. They always have Red & Black and All Black, and occasionally Purple and Black. I got all my pairs from Discount Dance. Which I think is one of the top two Dance Sellers, I just wish they had the types of pointes I wear. 

They are technically a dance-sneaker, but I like to be able to articulate my feet while I walk. So I keep a dance pair, and an outdoor pair.

Warning thse are a well ventilated padded MESH. So... outdoors your feet will get wet.

These have been around since about 2001, so Totally a tried and true style. They generally cost $35.00USD to $55.00USD.

WORN OUT SANSHA BLITZES

As you can see above, I have worn out the heal of mine. Can't wait for a better job, something in the repair industry.

Ellies

Now seriously do not make the mistake the people around me did and think these are "Office shoes".  Strictly dance.

Ellies Heal Measurement

Bombs Away, now 5.75 Inches is all my small feet can handle in a heal. I got these locally.

Rhythmic Gymnastics - Preparations while the Gym is Closed 2019-02-02

First off the ARDUOUS task of taping the hoop. I will include a photo of the Hoop when I am done. For now, suffice it to say by back and wrist hurt. I also do not have a scale, so I''m a little leary of adding a second layer of transparent tape. My Hoop is a Venturelli, and the Tape is Pastorelli Galaxy in "Light Sapphire." Its a beautiful tape but when I first began I didn't want to wreck my Hoop taping it wrong and I needed to develop hand and wrist strength with the 294 gram Hoop. I know the legal limit is 400 grams. So, I'm putting on that layer of colored tape.  Photo of Hoop taped up with one layer of colored tape.

I lost, or it was stolen, my wand for Ribbon at the Gym. *sigh* I'm not sure which cause my Jassy set of bags has no spot to carry the wand. I had to order a new Chacott Holographic wand. Expensive stuff this sport is, but it makes me happy. I'm using my dance skills, getting more fit, and improving my apparatus handleing. Certain things I still cannot do cause of my weight but slowly its coming off.

I taped up my wand (or as I call it baton) case with the same colored-tape as my hoop. So people know its MINE. Right now I only have a Chacott 4 color Ribbon. I'm looking to get a solid colored Ribbon to use at the Gym.

My floor is covered in Salt from the Winter blast of Snow. So I have not been able to practice much except clubs over my mattress. Ball, well, The floor is too salty to risk it, the rubber would be ruined. I could do a little rope, but I am presently taking a break from rope.

As always comments, and questions welcome.
