your getting the most out of your skates than
 consider having your skate blades aligned.

Being a specialty skates store, we have developed and pioneered
many unique systems for enhancing the performance of our clients
skates One of the many things we have done is developed and
refined the concept of "aligning skate blades" However, even after
more than twenty years and many thousands of 'blade alignments'
we are still often asked "what the heck is a blade alignment?" The
simplest definition of a skate blade alignment is; the positioning of a
skate blade on a boot in such a manner as to be relative to the foot
and the biomechanics of the skaters body that is going to be wearing
the skate; or in other words positioning the skate blade on the boot
to ensure that the skaters center of gravity falls directly over the
blade
Conceptually aligning blades on skates is the same as aligning
the wheels on a car When it's done correctly, the wheels (skate
blades) track 'straight' and 'true'
Skate blade alignment is by no means a new conceopt In fact figure
skaters have been aligning their blades for more than 75 years
Because of our extensive history with figure skating we simply used
what we had been doing with figure skaters for so many years, and
applied it to all skaters, including hockey and ringette players
Positioning the blade to allow IT support for the biomechanical
differences in your feet and body takes your skate fitting to the next
level The correct alignment will allow for maximum edge control,
which will support you in maintaining a more efficient stride, better
turning ability, and will enhance your overall skating performance
Because your skates are a production line item, the most that can
be expected from the skate manufacture is that the blade will be
mounted in the middle of the outer soul of the skates That however
does not accommodate the majority of skaters who pronate or
supinate Being certain that your center of gravity does not fall to
either the inside or outside of the blade means that you will have
better control of both the inside and outside edge of your skate
blades The classic picture of the young skater trying to skate while
using only inside edges is something that is easily avoided by
repositioning the blade on the boot Subtle changes to blade
positioning on all levels of skaters can translate into significant gains
in performance on the ice
Just some of the indications that you may need your skate blades
aligned may include; difficulty turning one direction , struggling to
hold eith an outside or inside edge, weak crossovers, chronic knee
strain, groin pulls, sore lower back The manufacturing process is
not perfect , so re-mounting a a skate blade mounted on a boot from
the manufacturer can make a huge difference in skating performance
 Blade alignment ideally needs to be done with the skater, in the
store, in that way we can fine tume the alignment However, skates
that have been worn for a period of time, will show signs of a poor
blade alignment, so we can in fact align blades without the skater
It's just not as ideal Pro Skate has worked with every level of
hockey player and figure skater, including Olympic gold medalists
Blade alignment is an integral part of the skate fitting process and
will help you attain maximum performance results from your skates
