- ** CUSTOM SKATE PROFILING & SHARPENING PT. 5 - SELECTING A HOLLOW **
If you watched Part 4, you now know what a ROH (RADIUS OF HOLLOW) is. But, how do you know what ROH will work best for you? Today we’re hittin’ that harder than Scotty Stevens! Ready. Set. Start the Show!
Anyone can own a skate sharpener. But, it takes years of experience to understand how blades work and how players use them as they skate... I have that experience! Twenty one years of Skate Sharpening Experience and Certified Master Power Skating Instructor, I analyze how players skate and dial them into a Radius of Hollow (ROH), Skate Profile and Balance Point that will help them be more stable and accelerate past the competition! Players you are playing against right now have the Canadian Edge advantage! Don’t get left in their dust! DM us or email us at: admin@canadianedgehockey.com today!
In Part 6, of the Canadian Edge Custom Skate Sharpening & Profiling Series we will learn more about the CAG ONE EVOLUTION SPEED ONE Skate Sharpening Machine! Stay tuned!
“Skate on the Edge!”

id say on hard ice yo need shallow hollow because hard ice gives more grip as it doesn't crumble away as soft ice where you need a deeper hollow to get more grip, also what hollow you might choose depends on your profile and how much of the blade is contacting the ice , the more surface contact , the shallow the hollow , the less surface contact (smaller Radius) the deeper the hollow
I had Coach Ryan profile my grandsons skates for the first time. He felt a difference right away, most notably in his turns, and stopping. Being 9 and not knowing exactly what was done, his comment was that they felt like they stuck better. Normally we just sharpen the skates at the pro shop, rinse and repeat. So I figure if he noticed enough difference to ask me about it and point it out, I'm sold.
Thanks coach.
This video is a great! Alot of info I've never thought of been playing 20 years
Thanks Tom!
Just had Coach Ryan profile and sharpen skates again. Just since the last profile we already had one skate starting to shift more to the back. That's a result of basically a different person sharpening each time, so we're fixing that. I'm investing in second set of blades so I can always have ryan sharpen them and swap them out. He's been sharpening skates longer than most of the people doing them now have been alive. If you don't think it makes a difference, try it once, you won't regret it.
Im 220 lbs and use the marsblade gen 2. I’ve been experimenting with different hollows. Went as shallow to 3/4. I found that I had difficulty with edges and turns. Also the skates need to be sharpened every few skates. Moved to 9/16 and feel faster and have better grip. Will try 1/2 next
Sounds like you on the right path. Work on those edges! The better your edge work the shallower you can go!
Your radius will determine your hollow more than body weight. If you skate on a 9' radius then a 7/16" or 1/2" might be great. If you skate on a 13' radius then those hollows will not be the best since you have more blade in contact with the ice (more blade contact = shallower hollow). My 10 year old is 70 lbs, but skates on a 5/8" hollow and is fast. His radius is also 13'. If I put him at 7/16" he looks a lot slower and fatigues faster. Just my 2 cents.
You mean profile ( blade shape and contact point).
Radius refers to degree of sharpen ( hollow)
@@troyvan6952 Incorrect. Radius refers to the shape of the blade.
.@@shanekunde7302 seems all the research I've done refers radius to sharpen... including people who sharpen skates for NHL players.
I must be missing something.
Didn't think there was such a thing as a 9 radius.
There's a 9 profile however.
@@troyvan6952 Yes - that is a 9' radius or profile.
@@shanekunde7302 talk to a pro, they'll explain it to you
