  • Title: [Comparative study of the performance of leather and plastic skate boots].
    Author: Roy B, Grenier R.
    Journal: Can J Appl Sport Sci; 1982 Mar; 7(1):45-8. PubMed ID: 7094193.
    Abstract:
    The authors have tried to demonstrate the influence of leather skate boots and plastic boots on the performance of Atome hockey players. Speed tests and joint flexibility tests by means of rotentgenograms showed that besides the speed tests where the leather boot appeared to perform a little better than the plastic boot, no significant difference could be found between both types of boots. It seems to be more a matter of individual choice and adaptation.
