Four Quadrants of Balance Blades

Balance Blades are designed around how beginner skaters actually use their blades — focusing on the middle sections for stability while adding smart safety features at the front and rear.

 

How Each Section Helps Your Child:

Front Section (Advanced Moves)
• Hidden indentations provide grip when your child needs to stand up or push off
• Doesn't interfere with normal gliding
• Acts like a built-in skate aid

Front-Middle Section (Where Beginners Skate)
• Wider, flatter blade (13' profile) for maximum ice contact
• Superior stability during those first wobbly strides
• Helps maintain balance naturally

Rear-Middle Section (Primary Balance Zone)
• Flatter profile keeps more blade on the ice
• Reduces slips as kids learn to control their weight
• The foundation for confident skating

Rear Section (Automatic Fall Prevention)
• Hidden indentations automatically engage when backward slipping starts
• Stops the rotation that causes rear falls
• Works instantly — no action needed from your child


The Smart Design:

Balance Blades use the front and rear of the blade (normally unused by beginners) to add safety features, while keeping the crucial middle sections wide and flat for natural stability.

Result: Your child gets automatic fall prevention, better balance, and more confidence — all built into the blade design.
