Anotations

Scope note:

Ice skates for competitive speed skating designed with short boots having no ankle support attached to a long, straight blade with an essentially flat bottom. Made to be thin and light, the top part of these blades are often hollow. Speed skates may have asymmetric blade placement on the right or left boot, or have provisions for customized blade placement.
