Features

Patented and proven: Balance Blades is the only beginner skate backed by physics. If you knew how rigorous the patent process is, you'd understand just how exceptional this product is. Trusting Balance Blades is a no-brainer when it comes to giving your child the safest and smartest start on the ice.

Prevent Rear Falls

Automatic Rear Fall Prevention System

Balance Blades are engineered with hidden rear indentations that automatically engage to prevent forward slips – the key reason beginners fall backward.

How it Works: When a forward slide begins, these indentations instantly grip the ice without your child needing to do anything. This creates a force that stops the backward fall, helping them stay upright.

Safety Through Physics: This smart design uses the laws of motion to redirect their momentum forward, giving them a chance to recover and build confidence on the ice.

    Skate Aid

      Assistive Front Blade: Your Child's Skate Aid

      Balance Blades have smart front indentations your child can use to help stand up, push off, and move forward or change direction. It's like a built-in skate aid!

      How it Works: When the child deliberately presses these front indentations into the ice, gripping the ice and allows them better balance and control for those first moves.

      Control Through Physics: By intentionally pressing down, they use physics to gain stability and make precise movements.

        Wider Flatter Middle

        Wider, Flatter Middle Blade: Built for Balance

        Balance Blades feature a wider, flatter middle, like goalie skates, for more ice contact and better balance.   

        How it Works: This design reduces the curve, spreading your child's weight evenly to prevent tipping. More blade on the ice means more stability.   

        Physics for Stability: By using the laws of motion, the flatter blade helps keep them moving straight and balanced, reducing unexpected wobbles and falls, so they can focus on learning.


        4 Sizes in 1 Adjustable Skate

            4-in-1 Adjustable Skate: Grows with Your Child

            Balance Blades adjust across four sizes, fitting your child for up to four seasons.

            How it Works: A simple push-button lets you easily expand the skate shell to the next size.

            Skates That Grow: Available in two size ranges (8 youth to 11 youth) and (12 youth to 2 junior) to ensure a comfortable fit as they progress. This saves you money and keeps them skating in the same trusted skates longer.

            Transitional Sharpening

            Transitional Sharpening: Skill Progression Built-In

            Balance Blades smoothly transition from beginner-friendly to regular blades as your child learns.

            How it Works: Over time, regular sharpening gradually reduces the front and rear indentations.

            From Training to Traditional: This progressive sharpening mirrors removing training wheels, allowing a natural development of skating skills.

            Safe, Smart Skating for Every Stage

            These features do more than just keep your child safe; they adapt as they learn, building their confidence and skills on the ice, step by step.
