Precision Profiling
For a full breakdown and explanation of profiling options please click the link --> HERE! <--
More than anything else, the quality and shape of your blade profile – the curve of your blade from toe to heel — will determine your agility, speed, your power, your performance.
What is performance profiling?
Performance profiling is about strategically combining several curves on one blade to enhance skating performance. A performance profile might, for example, add a smaller radius curve at the front of the blade, to increase agility and acceleration, while maintaining a larger curve at the back for speed and stability.
With a performance profile, players don’t need to choose between agility and stability, or between speed and explosiveness. By adding different curves in a combined sequence, performance profiles allow players to have it all — more agility, more speed, more stability, and more acceleration.
Precision:
Top players are sensitive to the most subtle variations in blade profile shape. Even differences as tiny as the width of a human hair – between blades in a pair, and between multiple sets of blades – can affect player feel and performance.
Precision begins with the profile templates which carry the shape you will copy onto the blades. ELITE profile templates are not just laser cut, but CNC-machined to tolerances of 2/1000th of an inch to guarantee consistent results.
ELITE’s blade mounting system means that the blades are profiled on their own, not on skates. This means that there is always a consistent reference point for the blades, every time they are profiled. It also allows two or four blades to be profiled at a time. All the blades will end up perfectly identical.
Efficient:
By handling two or four blades at the same time, the E-P3 makes the job of profiling blades much faster and easier.
On average it takes about 10-12 minutes to profile blades.
Versatile:
The E- P3 offers by far the widest range of profile choices on the market. ELITE offers a huge selection of proven, factory-calibrated profile templates and also welcomes custom orders from pro teams.
Precision Sharpening
What makes the Elite System different is its revolutionary sharpening technology. Elite’s fully computerized, automated sharpener controls the sharpening process with extreme precision.
- Steel wheels ensure a consistent radius of hollow;
- Center-mounting clamps provide a perfectly centered groove down the middle of the blade for perfect edges;
- Computerized algorithms guarantee a uniform removal of steel along the entire length of the blade to preserve the profile perfectly every time.
As well, the Elite system is fast and efficient, so we are able to sharpen skates faster than ever before. We offer hollows from ¼” to 1 ¼. Come see our experts and let us help you with your sharpening needs.
