Figure Skating Blades
« on: February 15, 2011, 08:46:52 AM »
Just a spot to hang onto any Figure blades that are available for sale.

Note: these are blades designed for doing Figures, not for other purposes like freeskating or ice dancing.

From the Recreational Figure Skating FAQ's / Frogsonice:

eBay listing of brand-new Coronation Aces for only $175 + $15 shipping.  It's a good buy if the sizes are right.

There are new Figure blades available, still in their original boxes, in a store near Montreal Quebec.
Mk Silver Test, some Gold Test and Wilson Comet Test. They also have new scribes in their original boxes also.

I bought a scribe for 60$ can. With a  10$ bag to go with it.

the e-mail is info@artistedupatin.com and they speak English.
