That's because hockey skates are mainly for speed, and toe picks slow you down, and figure skates have toe picks which gives you more control.
Why is there a difference between goalie and regular skates?
The basic position and quick short movements required are not easy to achieve in player skates. Also, the goalie skates are designed to prevent the puck from passing through them and to protect the insides of the goalie's foot when the goalie stops the puck down low. And Since I'm a goalie i should know this, not only is are goalie skates use from passing through them and to protect the insides of the goalie's foot when the goalie stops the puck down low. IT also allows goalies to push around their crease easier with a point toe and heel on the blade of the skate.

What is the difference between hockey skates and figure skates?
Figure skate blades are thicker, and the balance point is at the back, with more blade extending past the heel compared to hockey skates. They also have toe picks, to help with jumps and other maneuvers for figure skating. Figure skates are also "rockered" differently, meaning the blade curves differently, so turning is different in figure skates compared to hockey skates, as the balance is different. Figure skate blades are thicker, too, so they can be faster, as you have more blade contact to push off of. Hockey skates have no toe picks, as with toe picks, if you accidentally drag your foot or put it too far forward on the ice, you can fall. Also, hockey skates are balanced more neutrally, in the middle of the skate, which helps with recovering balance during the fast maneuvering and contact in the game. Hockey skates have thinner blades, so compared to figure skates, you're going to apply less power to the ice, but they glide a little bit easier than figure skates. Also, compared to figure skates, hockey skates have much tougher construction, as they have to be able to take pucks/sticks, etc.
What is the differents between ice skating ans figure skating?
Ice skating anyone can really do, but figure skating you have to have the right skates and you n eed to know how to use the toe pick.
Why are ice skates different than the other kinds of skates?
Ice skates are different because they have blades on them and they are designed differently than per Se roller skates. Roller skates have more padding and have wheels on them, while figure skates have blades on them. If one wanted to compare a figure skate to a hockey skate, for example, a hockey skate does not have toe-picks while a figure skate does. Hope this helps :)
