Hockey Wrap Around Blade Protector Insight

Chase with IW Hockey is joined by Lee from Hockey Wraparound, who gives us a deeper look at the Wrap Around Blade Protector, which allows you to use your expensive composite hockey stick off the ice to train anywhere, anytime. Its plastic polymer construction provides an ice-like feel while safely protecting the blade of your stick, whereas without it your blade will quickly delaminate and break down extremely fast. Even on the roughest surfaces, the WrapAround can endure stick-handling, passing, and even shooting - slap shots included.

I’m sold. Was unsure about this product until I watched. Looks like after taping up, you wouldn’t notice the plastic. Looks like it will shoot and handle normally

I've used it personally on the outdoor rink and it's saved my blades! I didn't have any issues with passing, shooting or stick handling either! Brandon at IW Hockey

These are the best product I have found for outdoor training. I have tried a lot of different products, from the Mylek MK7, to 2 piece sticks, to different blade protectors and these are the best. I put the blade protector on and fully tape it, and once the tape wears enough on the bottom I will cut the loose tape off so it doesn’t start to peel from the sides of the wraparound. I do find that my blades do wear in certain areas due to sand/dirt getting into the protected area so keep an eye on that. I also train with either a green biscuit or Xeno Puck and really don’t notice the wrap around. Out of all the wrap arounds I’ve gone through I’ve only managed to have one break on me and I’m not sure how it happened but it was a brand new wrap around.

They have definitely put in the legwork to make the best possible blade protector around. Which one do you like more, the Green Biscuit or the Xeno puck? Chase at IW Hockey

Weird question but do you guys know any soles for skates that can increase height on the ice? And also will it improve how you feel on the ice or will it just feel odd?

I'd recommend one of the SuperFeet insoles that has a hard plastic heel cup and arch support. It won't be much but it's enough that I feel the reduction of internal volume! Chase at IW Hockey
