Figure Skates, Ice skating Dresses at Skates for Less :: Blades :: Paramount Blades
Paramount Announces Next Generation Figure Skate Blades Paramount Skates is pleased to be marketing a new series of figure skating blades that define the state of the art in figure skate design. Utilizing advanced materials and manufacturing techniques, they are lighter, stiffer, stronger, and hold an edge better than conventional blades. On top of that, they are made of non-rusting materials, are available in colors, and are strikingly beautiful! The new blades use a frame that is computer machined from a solid piece of high strength aluminum alloy. Use of this material results in a blade that weighs up to 50 % lighter than a conventional blade. Its unique diamond-shaped cross section provides strength that significantly exceeds conventional blades, as well as superior stiffness, so that the skater's energy goes into their skating, not the blade. Use of Aluminum for the frame also allows it to be anodized in a number of attractive colors. Currently available are light blue, light pink, light purple, black &white, with more on the way. Custom coloring is available at an extra cost. Attached to the frame is a runner made of a high strength and exceptionally durable stainless steel alloy. In addition to resisting rust and other corrosion, this alloy offers superior edge retention. Skaters get 80 hours on the 420SS and 120 hours on the 440SS between sharpenings. Because both the frame and the blade runner are fabricated using high-precision computer-controlled machining equipment, the skater can be assured that every Paramount blade will be exactly like every other Paramount blade of that model. Skaters who have tried the new blades typically remark on their lightness and quickness, how quiet they are, and how fast they are. On the freestyle models, skaters frequently comment on how well the pick "sticks" on toe jumps, and how secure these takeoffs feel.
