THE COMPETITIVE EDGE PROCESS
Competitve Edge Skate Detailing is a member of Maximum Edge, who developed the skate blade sharpening, patented squaring and finishing process. There is seven steps that make up this process:
- Machine Calibration
- Blade Preparation I
- Machine Sharpening
- Blade Preparation II
- Finishing Pass
- Blade Calibration
- Blade Finishing Process
By using this process we can assure you will receive the same consistant results from us time and time again.
BENEFITS
- No brake-in period after sharpening
Elimination of sharp burs creates a safer edge reducing the number of incidental and accidental cuts. Blades that have not been finished have small burrs and foreign material redeposited by machine sharpening. The burrs and foreign material break off the first time that the skates are used leaving sharp edged pockets which can result in skate release, poor performance and a jagged blade with greater potential for cuts to both skater and eguipment.- Blade edges stay sharp longer, so skaters do not have to change skating styles to compensate for the blade edges as they break down, resulting in less fatigue and injury.
- Improved center of gravity
- Better control, turns, flow and acceleration
- Major reduction in skate release
- Less Friction = Less Fatigue
- No chatter on stops
- Increased confidence level in blade edges
