It's not.

Some shops do that; they put a number on it so it makes it easier for people to understand (or making it in a way that they retain business as the skater doesn't really know what he is getting)

You don't need a Blackstone machine - they make a standalone dresser that will work on any. And there it is... LOL

Well, that's just laziness on their part and are calling it something else so that they don't have to explain to you what they are doing to your skates.

Well, it's as simple as colors...can you see them sharpen? Do they have a red or black machine, or if they have a dresser, is it a red one or black one?

yes there is, and if you go on Blackstone's site, it will tell you what dealers do offer it. Let me ask you this - have they been telling you it is Flat-Bottom V what they are doing to your skates?

They aren't doing FBV...you're getting the Blademaster "version." You're getting X6.

in the grand scheme of things, yes. The 50 isn't digging into the ice as much as the 75 is.

could go either way...100/50 or 100/75; there isn't an exact match.

glad you listened, nobody listens to me... anyway - keep going up... glad you listened, nobody listens to me... anyway - keep going up...

First number corresponds to the flat width, second number corresponds to the edge height.

Just go up in order...

To be honest, someone at 314 lb skating on the DEEPEST FBV...and I ask this in the most non-insulting way...you aren't a good skater, are you? Because it sounds like you are on a training wheels hollow (going with deep hollow for stability) Remember, if you weigh a lot, you don't need that much of a hollow. Make the shift to a shallower hollow...every time you get your skates sharpened. Once you feel like you can't make a turn without blowing out, scale back to the previous hollow. But work on your skating and get off that 100/75!

02. I don't think the rarer options are available in the minispinners. prob get 100/50-75, 90/75. Poll your teammates on ROH

Depends on how much you are sharpening Up to you really. I have 1/2 but never have used it No, you can leave it in the box.

So is she.

.50, which is 50. Same diference.

...or just use electrical tape. Change it weekly if you want. I've had the same magnetic angle for 8 yrs. When I pull the tape off, the original paint is still there, unscored.

Fixed that for you

We don't need any more backseat mods...
