Services
Here at Skate Service Specialists, sharpening is at the core of the business. Since there is not a one size fits all solution for how
our clients like their skates sharpened, sharpening is customized based on the personal preferences of the skater. These preferences may include weight, skating level, experience, or personal preference. Careful attention is given to producing level edges with minimal steel removed, preserving the shape and consistency of the rocker radius and the life of the blade.
Traditional Blade Figure Sharpening - $25 per pair
*Lightweight Blade Figure Sharpening - $30 per pair
Hockey Blade Sharpening -$20 per pair
(*Lightweight blades include Ultima Matrix, Wilson Revolution and Eclipse Titanium)
Common hollows (90% of sharpenings) are...
1/2" (shallow hollow - more speed and glide, less edge bite)
*7/16" (medium hollow - good speed and good edge bite) (*most common hollow)
3/8" (deep hollow - edges dig deep in the ice for superior grip but at the cost of reduced speed)
Other hollows are available upon request
Edge finishes (provided at no extra cost)
- Light sharpening (edge dulling for ease in adjustment and stopping)
- Skidded axel sharpening (front left outside edge dulled)
A variety of other services are also available, including stretching and boot and blade repair
You can also ship your skates to be sharpened or serviced with fast turnaround from anywhere in the country.
