Hey guys, i just bought myself a new pair of skates and everytime i walk in it (on carpet), the left foot would make a cracking noise. Probably from the thing that holds the blade is making the noise.
should i be concerned about this? or its fine the way it is?

the blades are a bit loose, take em back to where you got em and ask them to tighten it up. you dont want to be skating with a loose blade.

mm i actually took a closer look at it, and its the piece that connects to the boot is making the noise. I dont see/feel any physical movement of that part or even the blade, it just cracks when i take a step
