When you get new steel on your skates,

do you like to rocker/get the steel down a little or do you like them w/o no modification ?

I use Tuuks almost exclusively before I got my Missions so I never had to bother, I used to prefer the 9 ft radius.

"rockering" is such a loosely-used term.

I think you mean you get your tips trimmed.

I'm currently on a 9' radius w/neutral bias and it has been working pretty good for me. I'm planning on getting my skates reprofiled later on to restore/maintain the shape and balance point.

Is this the same as bringing the toe and heel radiuses up a bit, and shortening the run length of the middle "working" radius?

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

Yeah, if you're just contouring the blade and not changing the actual radius.
