Jeebus, tell me you aren't going to have as many t'blade posts as you did Graf ones.

lolll before using t'blade since 1 year ago i used prolite3 and really i think there no big different....

yes i skate faster this year form the last year but i tihnk it just because i do improve my skating....

I THINK....they do improve your skating because they way ligther then any other holder so you lost some height and help move your feet with less energy

but i also think there a part of it..that IT IN YOUR HEAD!!!! they maybe improve by 20% maybe less..the rest is more in your head

so,in my opinions, when you choose to buy t 'blade it because:

1:look

2:light holder

3:always same cut(got problem with your sharpening skate)

4:make a COOL sound(in my opinion)

5:improve your skating

it for these 5 reason i switch to t'blade!

hope this help and you understand since i know have a bad english!!!

[thejackal 46]

That sound...

The other day a guy was skating on tblades at my school rink. My friend wanted to kill him because of that awful squeak. :lol:

lollll but maybe he was a new user of t blade

because i remerber the 2-3 first time i put t blade on my skate it make that COOL(lolz) sound but after a time (to get used to the new blade) it stop by 50% this sound!

I never understood any of that cobraa.

And yes t'blades will make you ALOT faster. Also if you tuck in the back of your socks into your skates there is less tug on your socks. That will also make you faster. Sock tape sometimes makes me faster too, because then your shin pads stay in place and you can concentrate on your skating.

oh well stampeder i think less then 20% on this forum do understood me but oh well!!!!!! lolz

i'M still posting and reading to get news

...that why i'm not posting a lot because nobody understand what i whant to mean ...so i only reply to thread that i know not a lot of people would know or have tryed this product(i.e...t'blades/Momentum/Air core)

Black laces make you faster too, unless you're wearing Bauer or Graf, then it's gotta be yellow ones. :P

[Stampeder 2]

Exactly, they cut through the air to make you more areodynamic.

[Cavs019 710]

Truely you guys are all helpful. Obviously dexy has a complex where he thinks certain products will improve his game over others, but ill be honest with this one, depending on the radius, hollow, etc. you will either skate the same as you did before, or improve slightly as a result of better glide or other variables.

well obviously black laces contain less dye than yellow laces, thus reducing the weight of each skate. obviously, black laces also help hide the puck, when a goalie looks at you, he'll see 2 black spots bye your feet and another black spot on your stick, he obviously won't be able to tell the difference and you'll have a 60% chance of fooling the goalie about where the puck is. this equates to a 23.89% increase in your chance of scoring.

as for t-blades, if you can get used to them, and they suite your style, they'll obviously improve your skating and speed but we don't know what suites you. i know when i switched to litespeeds from the "drive shaft", i skated better so tblades could do the same for you

[Jbone 0]

I dont really find alot more speed but I find that I get more power in a stride and its easier to skate with.

[horseshack 0]

I do not own T-blades, but a friend of mine lent his Grafs with T-blades, used them and wow! yeah i do skate faster with T-blades, no dout about it.

I just carry around a large fart-pipe style muffler with me when I am on the ice. I figure that if they can add 50hp to all those cool Civics around town then they gotta be able to do something for my skating power. Give me a couple of Greddy and HKS stickers and I am the fastest guy on the ice!

Yes T-Blades will make you much faster but only when compared to using no blades at all.

All of the T-blades and pimpy skates/equipment in the world will not make a noticeable difference (compared to average equip.) in a game situation. The most important factor for speed is you and your conditioning. I guarantee that someone who can skate circles around me could still do the same in substandard equipment. Also, if you want to go fast, get your skates rockered to 11' or even 12', you would lose some agility, but this would help your speed more than a neon perfed composite jock with focus flex.

man...you probably won't be having kids if you wear that

Do you find that you can dig better into the ice with T blades than Tuuk Steel?

[Cavs019 710]

ughhhh, it all depends on your hollow. steel is STEEL!!!!!!!!!!

[Speed Demon 0]

ughhhh, it all depends on your hollow. steel is STEEL!!!!!!!!!!

Wrong. There are different grades of steel. Why do you think that the edge on the T blade lasts longer than the tuuk edge?

[Cavs019 710]

I know there are different grades of steel bud. If you want to dig in more, get a deeper hollow, its that simple.

[Eazy_b97 1]

May last longer, but it shouldn't effect the cut your getting into the ice. There has been a few topics on T'blade and the pro's and cons of them have you looked back and checked through those for your answer? No product will make you better unless it's completely ground breaking. This is not ground breaking.
