Kinda confused on this post. Its not in properly. It needs to be seated better. If you warm the holder with a hair dryer and slam it on rubber it will go in but then you need to tighten it more. -

If you really want it not Sparx vs the Pros you may want to adjust some of your ad's. They are kind of off putting. -

Well I have no issue I will take orders. JR is right. The parent is US only. So it can be sold in Canada for now. If they manage to figure a way of getting the patent done in Canada it will be back to Jim at Tyden still use Jim for custom blades with names and numbers kids love it.

Bauer steel doea not sharpen the same at all. I am not going to try and explain what Tyden doea as i am not a metal person. But his steel is 100 times better to sharpen and holds an edge longer. I will let you metal experts sort out the numbers but quality wise Step breaks less and is easier to sharpen as a customer and sharpener to me that is all that matters.

No chance bauer uses Sandvik and if they do they must water it down somewhere. Itsharpens nothing like Step or Tyden.

Just curious if anyone at Sparz has ever sharpened a skate and if so what is their experience in doing so? Or did they just build the machine to try and fill a niche gap? -

Sorry been swamped with training at the skating lab. And VH sales and sharpening. Well from what I can see and keep knowing the way Rob dies the fits they look about 2 mm to long.... however sometimes when measurements come through they are a smidge off. If he had used a toe plug for size of feet differences (because some are large) then they may have a slight bit extra to fit the holder requested. But to be honest I didn't see the drawings the measurements the old skates the present skates so it's really hard to say! -

Really heat the top 4 eyelids and put a puck in there to hold the area open. You will find it much easier to put on and off. Also go to good content laces and only do up snuggly. And try one eyelid down should be able to get all the flexion you need. -

I have put in 12 orders in the last 10 days you may want to get it in quick Pro guys from Euro's to NHL are ordering in record numbers. Fitted another HHOF player on Saturday that's 3 now. Lots of NCAA and so on in them as well. They really are taking off! Won't be long though and Bauer and CCM will bring out something to compare. Prety sure VH has a couple tricks coming that will help keep them ahead...in the fit area! -
