When you are wearing a Russian pointe shoe, they spring up onto pointe, theres not much "going through demi pointe"... I would say, strong ankles are needed, when you spring up onto pointe, without breaking an ankle... Russian pointes come in all different sizes, widths, vamps, crowns, and you can get some that are harder, or softer, depending on your feet and comfort. Just so you know, everyone is different, and you cant choose which brand of pointes you want, because they may not be the best for your feet...
I have had sansha's legende's, and they were retarded for me.. then I tried some of BLOCH's European Balance's, and they worked great! I still have them, and they really bring out my arches, but some people hate BLOCH's. It depends, what you feel comfortable in, and what suits your feet..
Addition to answer by Russian Pointe, Inc.:
Actually, Russian Pointes are made for ALL feet! We have over 2000 options in your shoe size alone, to be able to find the perfect size, width, vamp and shank for your foot shape and strength. If you are wanting a shoe that has an easier roll through demi, I suggest our flexible shank options, which feature a cutout design at the ball of the foot, specifically to enhance demi-pointe and roll-through.

What pointe shoes?
Pointe shoes (aka toe shoes) are shoes that we ballerinas wear to enhance our performance. Contrary to popular opinion, Pointe shoes are not made out of wood, but of paper mache. The shoes give the illusion that we are on our toes, while in reality the shoes are supporting our weight and our toes are being cushioned by padding.Pointe shoes are not comfortable, though, and many blisters, bunions, and foot injuries come from dancing "en Pointe." To be able to dance on Pointe you must have had several years of dance and very strong ankles."If you are asking what Pointe shoes are then they are ballet shoes elevated to look like ballerinas where dancing on clouds.
