Right. That's half of the generic answer to the tradeoff of rocker in
skates. I was hoping for some *specific* information: what is the
utility of turning ability for a goalie? What are the possible
scenarios under which they would need to be turning while playing

Do you have an answer to my original question: how much rocker is
actually present in goalie skates?

Thanks.
