I haven't actually worked with him yet but just talking to him on the phone proved how knowledgeable he is and how friendly he is! I can't wait to get started!

As a pro hockey player of 11 years, I have a particular preference about my skates and it’s very important to me that they are well taken care of. Many people don’t understand that the most important part of hockey is your skate’s ability to interact with the ice. Dave really understood this and did an exceptional job with the profile and sharpening of my skates. I was very pleased with the outcome, Dave really knows what he’s doing. If you play hockey at any level, you can definitely benefit from Dave’s skills. More...

I'm a first time skate owner, so is the sharpening/profiling that Dave did worth it? I honestly don't know. But the education that Dave gave me was worth the profiling fee alone. He took the time to measure my foot, and also noted my high arch, suggesting insoles. We are fortunate to have a service like Skaters Edge here in Northern Colorado. Thanks a lot, Dave! More...

Dave is the man, I’ve been to many many skate shops who have sharpened my skates from California, Arizona and Colorado where I’m from and skate most of the time.
I’ve played hockey for like 20 years total taking about 15 off and had no idea what hollow or profile I skated on until I did some research like 5 years ago unfortunately living on the western slope we didn’t have many choices for skate sharpening and no one did any profiling so I was always on stock profiles. I moved to the eastern slope and luckily I had options for skate sharpening and that was going to a local hockey shop here in Fort Collins which I did and I can’t tell you how many times they messed up my runners I was extremely mad that no one knew how to do a good job on sharpening, I even drove to Denver area to the major hockey stores and once again a big FAIL, I happend to find Dave, And Dave is a master, one of the most intelligent master skate genius I’ve ever met not only did he profile my skates and give me the right hollow he actually takes the time to make sure your happy and will make adjustments as needed with your feedback, I ended up buying the STEP runners on his recommendation and glade I did. I did some skating on them with the new profile which was a little harder since I was use to a 9 foot radius going to a 10 foot was tricking but getting use to it, Then I had him change my hollow to A FBV (which no one out here even offers it) And change my toe pitch and being an older skater helps me not be so sore the next day. Nevertheless I’ll never take my skates to another person as long as Dave is around.
I highly appreciate all the time and knowledge he has spent talking to me about the skate sharpening biz
Don’t give it a second thought.

I've been playing hockey for 47 years and never heard of skate profiling. I bought new skates and had Dave profile them and I'm blown away with how balanced I feel. I'm a believer!!!! Thanks Dave.

Amazing difference! I highly recommend getting your skates profiled with Dave at Skaters Edge! Just listening to his passion and the science behind what he does is what really convinced me to try it. Now I can't believe I waited this long! More...

The best edges in the business. I was skating circles around the other players because they bought a sharpener from the store and tried to do it themselves. The owner was very knowledgeable about skates. He also helped me lose 30lbs with his dietary training and fitness coaching. He did all this while repairing my 2003 Honda Accord. It is truly a one stop shop for everything you need! More...

Skaters Edge is a great place to go for your skates. I highly recommend it. Dave’s knowledge of the skate blade is above all. His excellent customer and enthusiasm gets you the best blade set up for your skating style. He helped me immensely with my new skate set up. And that has increased my enjoyment for playing hockey. He says; “The skate blade is the most important part of your equipment, it connects you to the ice.” He is completely correct. Thank you Dave. More...
