The Pro Shop / ROH on old Coronation Ace for Figures
« Last post by dlbritton on April 14, 2024, 10:00:03 PM »My Coronation Ace blades finally passed their useable life for freestyle. The technician said the sweet spot has shifted back due to multiple sharpening altho the profile is still correct. After the last sharpening I tripped over the toe picks a few times because they are closer to the ice. I ordered new Coronation Ace blades, I am still competing at Adult High Beginner so no higher blade really called for.
I was thinking of using my old blades with my old somewhat broken down Riedell Motion boots and having a dedicated Figures boot/blade combo.
What is a good ROH for Figures alone, or possibly Figures and Ice Dance if that is feasible? I currently use a 7/16 ROH for freestyle and have heard a shallower ROH is better for Figures. I will also talk to the tech about grinding down the toe pick some so I don't catch it.
Thanks for any advice
