Which is better? Edea E-Guards VS. Regular Hard Guards (journeybacktotheice)

Which skate guard is better? Edea E-guard or regular hard guards? In today’s video I will review both the Edea E-guards and the traditional Guard Dog hard guards for figure skates. I have been using both of these for the past few years and I wanted to share which I think is the better skate guard option.
If you have watched my videos you know that I have a pair of the ombre white and champagne Edea E-guards that I have been using everyday for the past 3-4 years. I also have a pair of the color changing Guard Dog hard guards for my coaching skates. Both have different pros and cons but overall each does exactly what they are supposed to do. One thing to mention is that the Edea guards are sold in a few different size options. Each option fits a range of blade lengths. More information about that can be found on the Edea website. I will leave links for each of these down below. Let me know what type of skate guards you have!

Please note hard guards are not the same as soakers. You will need both a pair of hard guards and a pair of soakers to properly take care of your skates

i totally agree! I've been having trouble with my blade rusting because the rust has all been captured in my old hard guards. It was unfortunate that I didn't realize that was the problem for a while though.. 😂

[@AyaaAcademia]

I've used both as well (trad hard guard and the E-guards). I think the lack of metal pieces that could rust is definitely a plus for the E-guards. The small crevices of my old hard guard sometimes retain water and one of the screws has developed rust. Could be my negligence (got it when I just started) but I like the hassle free nature of the E-guard. Also, we have these free outdoor rinks and usually I would put my guards on the board and the rubber E-guard is much more durable in case anyone knocks them over + less noise. That being said, they are rather pricey. I got mine at a discounted rate because of a loyalty card (20 euros instead of 45)

Informative, thank you for the video.

I use rockerz skate guards since they are very customizable and cool looking but I completely agree with you and what you are saying. Do you have any opinions on rockerz skate gaurds

[@journeybacktotheice]

I honestly was going to purchase a pair before I got the edea ones! The only reason I didn't is because of the metal spring in the middle. I'm not a big fan of the noise it makes

Can you use e guards on Jackson skates?

[@cammy854]

I have e guards for my jackson entre with the ultima legacy 7 blade and they work just fine. Just make sure you know the length of your blade for sizing - my blade is 8" 3/4 and size medium is perfect.

[@Camille-ez4rt]

Yes you can😊
