What do Skate Sharpening services include?

Skate sharpening services from Airtasker include the tasks required to restore your ice skates’ capacity for propelling you through the ice. We can make it easier for you to keep your mobility, balance and ability to do sharp, quick turns when ice skating.

You can get back to your professional or leisure skating with just a post. Skate sharpening specialists can make a close inspection of the blades, sharpen the inner and outer edges, sharpen the toe picks, then polish the blades. We can connect you to local qualified skate sharpening specialists to sharpen your skate blades, and fast. 

Inspecting the blades

Before sharpening the blades, your skate sharpening specialist will check them for dull areas. This can be done with equipment like magnifying glasses, or other equipment. They may even use the simple “fingernail test”.

Your specialist runs a fingernail perpendicular to parts of the inner and outer blades. Areas, where the blades stick to the fingernail, are sharp sections; if their fingernail runs smoothly without a hitch, these are the dull areas and need sharpening. There can be other inspection methods that your sharpening specialist may employ.

Sharpening the ice skate blades

Your specialist will sharpen the inner and outer blades to the radius that you want. Note that skate sharpening involves grinding down on the metal and removing small amounts of material, so constant sharpening shortens the lifespan of your skates. Have the skates sharpened when you lose your balance or notice that your skates are making less “snow” when scraping your blades sideways on the ice.

Sharpening the toe picks

After your hired skate sharpening specialist has sharpened the blades on your skate, they proceed to sharpen the toe picks. Your specialist can ensure that these are sharpened or ground down to the same degree as the skate blade to make the toe pick level with the blade.

They can ensure that the “no-skating zone” between the bottom toe pick and the forward balance point of the blades maintains the same angle and distance before sharpening. These will be done for both ice skates. 

Polishing the blades

For the final step, your sharpening specialist does the finishing touches on your skate sharpening job by polishing the blades. They do this with a honing stone or similar tool to rub out burrs on the sides of the blades themselves. Your specialist removes these burrs as they are tiny bits of material that can obstruct the cutting surface of your skate blades; these can cause you to lose your balance or even trip on the ice.
