just spent days trying to find details about goalie profiles. great video.. very timely.

[@dudemcmann6936]

I'm glad videos like this are around to remind me every 10 years or so what a profile is. Ha!

[@robanthes1308]

I got the goalie sam with 1/2 grind, dull the out edge. Best sharpen i have had in years! I have always used the front of the blade in BF for like toe flick pushes, goalie same made that much easier to catch the edge super fast vs standard steel.

[@ericracette9716]

Can I get more info on the senior goalie ellipse profile seems very interesting from what i can see online.

[@dag6091]

So if I have a custom profile, or the Bauer Pro skate, and give my skate to my local rink or mediocre Peranis that don't have a Bauer pro shop, won't they completely destroy the custom radius?

[@InGoalMedia]

In theory, they should not but a skate sharpener in the wrong hands....that's why a lot of goalies are going with multiple sets of blades so they can ship them to a place they trust. Of course we recognize that's an investment that not everyone can make.

[@rides20]

In theory, a pro sharp or even a sparx sharpener *should * leave the profile intact. A standard sharpener with a ham fist behind it will likely destroy your profile.

When will the hockey shop website update stock on gear

How is the Ellipse profile compared to the SAM ?
