    From experience I'd disagree with your statement. I've been in my current skates for just under 2 years now. I rotate 2 sets of LS3 edge runners, skate 5 times a week, and remove my runners after every skate. The trigger mechanisms are just fine, although my holders look like they've been through WWIII. But this is the Sparx thread so let's keep discussing their sharpener.

    I've been using the app since late December. Some nice changes have been made and like that I can track shift times, speed, and heart rate shift to shift as well as totals for the entire skate.

    Drill holes.

    Except as a consumer when you ask for specifics on a so called "custom skate" you should get what you asked for. If for some reason they cannot be made to your exact specifications then I would expect to be notified of that prior to the skate being made to either accept the changes or cancel my order.

    Once you have the grinding wheel aligned why would you think that you need to readjust it?

    Not advocating for one machine over the other. Haven't tried the Sparx fire so I can't compare it to FBV, but I have skated on Z-Channel and felt it had identical glide to that of FBV, but less bite than FBV.

    ProSharp US has them listed as a Christmas special for $1490. Looks like you have to shell out another $150 for a carrying bag.

    Skates have historically been on a 2-year cycle, so sometime in 2018.

    Everyone goes through a rough stretch every now and then. Just ride it out and stick with it...

    True nor VH make holders. Holder is made by Step.

    What you have accomplished since you first started is truly amazing. It's nice that you have recorded your progress over the course of time.

    Would make sense that they consider the feasibility of a commercial grade machine. Once you have saturated the home sharpener market the sales of your units will drop. Of course they may be satisfied with just marketing their consumables, but a commercial grade machine might be a good sell to rinks. Especially complexes that have multiple sheets and attract tournaments. I know for a fact that a rink pro shop near me has several machines just to handle situations when 12 teams are playing at the same time.

    Hope you had a black car previously. Keeping it clean is a full time job!

    Just go LS4...

    Sorry to hear that Chadd.

    Not possible...

    I skated in them for 2 hours at SummerJam and had no issue coming from Supremes. Pitch was a non factor.

    While I'll admit upfront that I know nothing about 3D scanning, just looking at above process I would have some reservations about the scan's accuracy. And PAID reviews are WORTHLESS...

    There must be something significant in regards to FBV and BFD otherwise there would be no FIRE with SPARX.
  22. mojo122
    I don't want to hijack the SPARX thread, but BFD is less than precise compared to FBV. BFD is a scale where a particular dressing can feel within a range (for example, bite can feel like anything from a 1/2" to 5/8") and FBV has multiple spinners equivalent to specific hollows (for example 100/50 = 1/2"). If the SPARX fire ring is closer to actual ROH, then I'd say it's a better system than BFD IMO.

    Skate with the custom insole and see how that goes. Even if it takes up some volume it doesn't necessarily mean that it will cause you problems. The yellow foam provides no support at all so I wouldn't skate on it long term. If the custom causes you issues over time then look into something supportive that is low profile, such as the carbon SuperFeet or SpeedPlate.

    I've only seen black outlined in white on the 1N glove.

    I have 3 sets of LS3 in my rotation and haven't had any issues. I also remove mine after every skate to dry them completely and am currently skating 4 times/week.
