Hi All,
I recently started figure skating around January,
I got a pair of Jacksons online about a month, they fit great they work great and last week I decided to get them sharpened. I used them the day after and didn't have any trouble and probably chalked up any unusual feelings to the fact they were sharpened freshly. I went skating today however and they just felt off the entire time, my blades had no bite or grip on the ice whatsoever, I could snowploug and when trying basic moves like a lemon I felt slightly out of control. Is it possible these blades were badly sharpened? The place i got them sharpened it is well know and has a good reputation but its also all done by one busy guy and they usually sharpen hockey skates not figure skates.
The blades can scratch of a bit of my nail so definitely sharpened but like I said, no grip / bite on the ice whatsoever and can't really feel my edges much anymore? Should I suck it up and see if this resolves itself or should I get the sharpened again somewhere else?
