Superior endurance. Greater power. Enhanced agility. Better control. These are just a few of the improvements skaters from recreational leagues to the pros are reporting with this new blade sharpening technique.
FLAT BOTTOM V PROS AND CONS
Flat bottom V Pro’s
Flat bottom V Pro’s
- Better gliding ability
- Better turning (more bite)
- Less fatigue
- “For pushing and gliding and being on top of the ice, there’s a huge difference” Cory Stillman, Florida Panthers
- “The concept for the V scientifically makes a lot of sense” Dr. Kelly Lockwood, president and lead scientist at The Skating Lab at Brock University
- From many reviews and posts on forums parents of minor hockey players notice an improvement in skating
- Reports from some minor hockey forums state the when you lose an edge you lose it all at once, which could mean missing the rest of the game until you can get the skate sharpened
- If it is easier to lose an edge with this grind it could result in injuries
- If the edge comes off easily then this would require frequent sharpening to keep the edge
Skate Profiling
- Skate “Profiling” involves changing the shape of the skate blade to help a player maximize their skating potential. Profiling is also referred to as rockering, radiusing, contouring, and body-balance contouring. During the process we can change 3 major attributes of the blade; 1) the radius of the profile (ROP), 2) the rocker point, and 3) the radius of the hollow (ROH).
- Skate blades can be profiled to improve speed, turning and stability. Skate profiling allowing for the optimal amount of blade contact with the ice for the skater, directly affecting stability, agility and being able to carry speed.
