With Dan's expert sharpening techniques, your blades will perform at their best, allowing you to focus on perfecting your skills.

Success in skating depends on mastering and consistently replicating specific movements. Skaters invest heavily in ice time, lessons, and equipment. If they constantly adjust their technique due to poor sharpening, their efforts and resources are wasted, and will simply not be successful.

Did you know a blade can be ruined in just one sharpening?

Here’s a picture comparing new blades to one that’s been damaged:
