Figure Skate Sharpening Guide - How, Why and When to sharpen your figure skates

[@nancymarron-asti8463]

This was SOOOOO informative!! I have been waiting 30 years for this video lol.

[@CoachJulia]

You are SOOOOO welcome. 😄 I am glad you found it interesting.

[@TinyEpics]

This is a really interesting video. I really think the quality of the sharpening is more important than the actual ROH. I say this because I just brought my Edea skates to a pro shop in Frankfurt where they even sharpen for Olympic skaters. With this ultra precise cut, I find that I don’t need a very deep ROH at all. In fact, I like how it is right in the middle and gives me good grip but also a really decent amount of glide. I suggested he go up to a “deeper” cut and he recommended against it. I am at a 5/8” ROH and extremely happy with it. It’s interesting how personal it is for each skater! I just love having the extra speed and would worry that a 1/2” would already be too sticky and slow me down. I am a skater who skates with quite deep edges by the way. Only doing single jumps at the moment and pretty nice one foot spins.

[@StillAliveAndKicking_]

Informative video. It’s worth mentioning that heavier skaters can use a shallower hollow, and hard ice needs a deeper one. Synthetic ice needs a deeper hollow too.

[@CoachJulia]

Glad you think it was informative! And those are great tips, thanks!

[@deesterdee6650]

Glad you are back making more videos! This was very educational. The guy who sharpens blades at my rink said he typically does 7/16ths for my type of skate blade. I had no idea what it meant and just trusted him, but now I know!

[@CoachJulia]

I am happy to be back too! 😄 I am glad you found it educational. I used to always have to ask my coach because I could never remember what number to tell the sharpening guy. Education is always a good thing.

[@hexalspace]

Awesome explanation/visual of the circle radius and how it relates to the edge, thanks!

[@CoachJulia]

Glad you liked it!

[@YourLocalIceMan]

This is like the first solid video I have seen on sharpening figure skates. Most vids are on hockey skates. Good info here and I can not say this guy is doing anything wrong. Great equipment and total respect that he is humble about it too. Non of the figure skate coaches at my rink can answer any questions about figure skate sharpening. Its always the same 1/2 inch. What you said makes total sense. Our ice is on the colder side too so I think I deeper cut you be more helpful.

[@CoachJulia]

Hey, I am glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful! I was surprised when I began considering starting a channel at the lack of info out there for figure skaters. There is sooooo much info out there for Hockey skaters!!!

[@psychoshamrock]

ah, my good old 1/2 inch. I did this when I did figures and I got used to it from when I was a child (late 70s, I'm a dinosaur!) That swizz swizz swizzz sound when you spin is like skating meditation ASMR lol.

[@CoachJulia]

I love skating on a quiet rink so that I can hear all the sounds my blades make. 😊

[@Camille78497]

Thank you so much for posting this video! I thought different blades have different edges…now I know it depends on how the blades are sharpened! Very helpful.

[@CoachJulia]

So glad you found it helpful!

[@kerenlavi3087]

I watched several explanations on this issue, and yours is definatley the most clarified

[@CoachJulia]

I am so glad to hear that you found my explanation helpful.

[@hermiea6854]

This is the best video I've ever watched on radius of hollow. I now have a better understanding regading hallows. I had my blades sharpened three times in the past until I found the right hollow. Next time, I know exactly what I would tell the tech for my hollow preference. I subscribed to your channel so I won't miss any information that you would share with your audience. Thank you.

[@CoachJulia]

Thank you so much. I really appreciate that. I am glad you found it informative!

[@excalibur1812]

Awesome video. I haven't skated since 1988 and with Texas in a deep freeze, I recently broke out my skates. Discouraged to see the blades with some tiny rust spots. I thought I did thoroughly dry them, but I guess it wasn't good enough the last time I skated Very informative video and thanks to Brett, also for the explanation. I'm a professional musician, not a skater.

[@Stas3g]

Awesome video, thank you, Julia. And now the "easy part" - to find the same good master :D

[@CoachJulia]

😬 that’s the trick right? You have to find someone who can do a good job with it.

[@jfluter]

@@CoachJulia Yep. Where I am at, I have to go several hours away to get my blades sharpened. It sucks. My rink does offer skate sharpening, but they have no idea on how to really sharpen skates, so it's not worth the risk.

[@machomie]

Excellent video on sharpening. Thank you!

[@CoachJulia]

Glad you liked it!

[@Ss-yp3do]

love your channel. learning so much by watching watching your channel. My daughter started figured skate and I'm the one need to learn, we had it done last week but didn't know anything about the swallow. thank you so much!

[@CoachJulia]

So glad you find my videos helpful.

[@lauribricker9439]

Thanks so much for the 411 on blade sharpening! If my freestyle skates start to feel like patch (compulsory or school figure) skates, it's time to get the blades sharpened!

[@CoachJulia]

Patch! Love it. It’s been a long time sine I’ve been at a rink that offered patch sessions.

[@dian277]

I had mine sharpened about 6hrs (of skating) ago and it felt duller than before, I wasn't sure how they did it cause I didn't see it. I dropped them off today to get it redone by someone more experienced, now I can ask them questions to make sure it's done right. Thank you for the information!

[@CoachJulia]

You are welcome! Make sure you always know what hollow to ask for and then first thing you want to do is try a one-foot glide on each skate to make sure you can glide straight. If you pull to one side or the other they may have over sharpened one edge.

[@dian277]

@@CoachJulia This would be the 3rd time I have my blades sharpened. I will ask them what radius they used and try one-foot glide, hopefully it turns out right. Thank you! This also explained why I kept turning when I was learning one-foot glide, which was after the 1st sharpening.

[@chiutwan]

ThriveDiaries: I was having a hard time gliding or even just standing on my left foot. Since I’m an adult beginner, I thought it was me. Never thought the blade might be a factor. Question: how do you know when the cause is the skater’s technique and when it’s the blade if there is not a coach around?

[@martinripley5981]

Awesome presentation Julia and Brett... Your video series is top notch Julia! ... Keep 'em coming!

[@CoachJulia]

Thank you! Glad to have your continued encouragement!

[@bobrosswighair4473]

Ik I’m a few months late, but I have a question. My brother used to take ice skating lessons, but he used hockey skates and I’m using figure skates. He told me that after sharpening your blades, you shouldn’t go right to skating. You should sharpen skates a few days prior to actually going out to skate. Is this true? I’d believe him, but he only took 2 skating lessons then he quit because he wasn’t having fun, so idk how accurate everything he says is. Sorry if this is a dumb question, I’m a new skater. Also, thank your for this video! It gave me a lot of insight and needed information.

[@CoachJulia]

Hey, I am glad you have found my video helpful. I don’t know where your brother got that idea, but there is definitely nothing wrong with sharpening your skates and then skating on them right away. I have done it many times.

[@maytmdmrw]

Yaaaaay you’re back! Hope your ankle is getting better. Thank you for video, very interesting ⛸⭐️😊😊

[@CoachJulia]

Yay! Thanks for the good wishes, I am healing slowly, but I am determined to get back out on the ice as soon as I am safely able. 😊 Glad you found the video interesting.

[@jfluter]

I use snowplow stops and t-stops at the boards to help dull my blades just a bit after a sharpening. Also, the adjustment to sharpened skates shouldn't take that long (like maybe a single FS session) if you get them sharpened regularly.

[@CoachJulia]

Stops are a great way to dull your blades a bit after sharpening!

[@nerolia_gaming8030]

I bet a master at my ice rink is nowhere close to Brett in his skills :( I never felt any dramatic change after sharpening and also I'm quite bad at skating and holding myself on the ice. Seems like my edges are done wrong. I even stopped going skating at winters 3 years ago coz it was not that pure fun. Maybe this year I'll revive my skating by bringing it to another level thanks to both of you, Julia and Brett! You should definitely do more videos on technical aspects of figure skating!

[@CoachJulia]

Thanks so much for the positive feedback! I will pass your comments along to Brett as well!

[@robertshetsen8691]

[@Victoria-ws9bu]

Hi!! This is rlly useful. I just got my first pair of skates and I never had lessons. I only skated like with friends to hang out but would like to learn to be better. How much does it cost to get your skates sharpened. Also the cost for lessons for a person like me (I have some experience but nothing to pro) and skate guards. What kinda are better? Plastic ones? Thank uuu!!

[@CoachJulia]

It’s hard to give a good answer since cost on things varies from rink to rink and coach to coach. At my rink, sharpening skates is $15, private lessons at my rink range from $35 to $54 for a half hour lesson. For skate guards, you definitely want a plastic pair, these are a good all-size pair... amzn.to/3hfVPNb

[@ayumimhm]

i go skating tomorrow and i forgot to book the rentals. I had a pair of ice skates from 2 years ago and they still fit me - so i figured i can use them? the blade does look a bit rusted but only on the sides i’m just hoping they will work and be ok lol

[@anyakholkina]

Thank you for this very informative video. I have a quick question, I just bought my first pair of skates, I'm still a beginner. I have noticed a small nick on the inside of one blade, at the bottom where the sharp edge should be. Can this be corrected with sharpening or should I return the skates? I could only see in the video that the bottom of the blades get sharpened, but not the sides. Thank you!

[@CoachJulia]

It is the bottom of the blade that gets hollowed out, most nicks get sharpened out that way. if you are very careful, you may be able to use a hand stone to polish out the nick, but without seeing it, I can’t say for sure.

[@robertshetsen8691]

Thank you maybe il get to cut deeper later but very educational video keep it up

[@ronishastroud8891]

I was always told that i will be able to feel it when u need to sharpen it. Like if it feel like i am skating on butter knifes. Then i will need to go to my local shop.

[@CoachJulia]

That is usually the case. you got some good advise.

[@barbarab202]

How many of those snowplow stops might one need to get the stickiness after a sharpening off? I find I usually need about ten skating hours after a sharpening for the blades to feel nice again, which seems so long.

[@Aspen_Husky]

I got some edea overtures with a legacy 7 blade and just discovered our winter rink opening tommorow doesnt sharpen and we have no skate shop as im on an island. I dont want to have to pay £40+ to ship my skates when they need sharpening but im planning to skate around 8 hours a week. Sigh gotta love island life

[@CoachJulia]

Oh my gosh, that is a tough situation to be in. I do know that there are some sharpeners designed for home use, I wonder if that might be a solution. I know people here in california who have them and they offering sharpening services to a lot of people.

[@Lf2e]

[@CoachJulia]

Hi! yes, you definitely need to sharpen new skates before you use them.

[@bronstet]

Yes you do. New skates never come pre-sharpened.

[@559043]

pretty skates ... is anything ever done to the toe picks?

[@CoachJulia]

Generally the toe pick is left alone. They do ware down a bit over time, but that can't really be helped.

[@teresaramos1719]

Awesome info. Soo grateful for you !!

[@CoachJulia]

Glad it was helpful!

[@micaylagoyne7673]

What do you do if the pro shop messed up your sharpening? Do you just go get it re-sharpened? And about how long can a blade last before it needs to be replaced (not based on number of sharpenings, but time)?

[@CoachJulia]

if your sharpening was messed up, say, one edge is hugger than the other, a good technician can fix that with an new sharpening. if they put a dent before your toe pick then that can’t really be repaired. So it depends on the situation. I can’t really give you a length of time, as every skater skates different. I used to skate 4 hours a day 5 days a week, which means my sharpenings needed to be pretty frequent. If you only skate once a week then they will last much longer.

[@postasiuk]

Could you specify what is a dent before the toe pick? I’m worried this happened to my skates now. They’re more shaved closer to the toe pick on the rocker.

[@noorallawati5390]

I am a bit scared cause we don't have a proshop. My soft skates got their first sharpening at the rink. Coach sharpens hers there as well. Now i am waiting for my JW ace coronation blades and i don't want theme ruined =(

I have always been curious if figure skaters ever need to get their toe picks sharpened, or if that is just a sign that your blades need to be replaced.

[@CoachJulia]

No, just the blades. The toe picks will slowly dull over time, but there really isn't anything that can be done about it.

[@aninavis.4733]

I'm new to ice skating and i received two days ago a ice skates,but I don't know should i sharpend it by myself,because the place where they do that is too far.And how if somebody knew.I realy don't know what to do.

[@CoachJulia]

It is not a good idea to sharpen them yourself unless you have training in the skate sharpening process and all the right equipment. A poorly done sharpening can ruin a pair of blades. If there is any way to get them to a sharpening shop and have them done professionally, that is better.

I don’t live near a figure skate store (Pro Shop) so I went to Sport Chek to get my figure skates sharpened. I told them specifically that I wanted a 5/8” hollow and they even wrote it down, but when I looked at the skates after, I didn’t see a hollow at all. Do you think they could’ve mistaken it or done something else instead? How deep does a hollow look on the blade for a 5/8” cut? And can you recommend me any stores that I could get my figure skates sharpened next time that would guarantee best results?

[@CoachJulia]

My only suggestion for this is to try taking them to a shoe repair shop and see if they are able to stitch them back together.

[@thepurplegiraffecafe]

How close do you sharpen to the pick? trying to figure out how much space to leave lol

[@CoachJulia]

You only want to sharpen to a point where you can still avoid damaging the toe pick in the process. If you are sharpening on a machine that has a spinning wheel, like the one in this video, you just want to get that wheel as close to the toe pick as possible, without hitting it. If you are doing it by hand, with a hand stone, you can get all the way up to the Toe Pick.

I just got fitted with a new boot after years away from skating. I had a used blade put on it (pro said it looked like it was in petty good shape). I feel a wobble on just my left skate particularly on an outside edge or when picking up a little speed with crossovers. Do you know what could cause a feeling of wobble moving cross the ice. It’s not my body, just my foot! They took down the sharpness of the left blade a bit but that didn’t solve it.

[@CoachJulia]

hmm. It’s hard to say what could be causing that, all I can say is that I feel like I have had a similar experience when my edges weren’t sharpened level. so one edge ended up lower than the other and it caused me to feel unsteady on one edge. perhaps take a level to the blade and check?

Beware! Just because a rink has a “pro shop”, it doesn’t necessarily mean they know how to sharpen FIGURE skates. They may even tell you they can, then proceed to give you a hockey skate sharpening. My sister took 5 pairs of high quality skates to a rink in her new neighborhood, since she couldn’t find someone who was a skate expert. Ignored the clues that their skate shop was 95% hockey related. Sure enough, all the skates had awful, no hollow finishes, and almost ruined. Wasted about $100. Finally found an expert where I live in NJ who repaired the damage. Make sure you get recommendations from figure pros!
