Skate Sharpening and Profiling in Herriman, UT

Hockey Skate Sharpening, Profiling & Custom Radius Work

At SchwendiSharpens, we take your edges seriously. Profiling is the fine-tuned science of shaping your skate blades to match your skating style — improving balance, speed, and control on every stride. Whether you’re a power forward, agile defenseman, or all-ice playmaker, your profile determines how your blades contact the ice. A properly profiled skate can make you feel more stable in your stance, faster out of transitions, and smoother in every turn.

Why Profiling Matters

Most skates come with a factory-set radius that serves as only a starting point. Profiling customizes that shape — redistributing the blade’s contact points so you glide more efficiently and stop more confidently.

​

Benefits include:

  • Improved stability and edge control

  • Smoother transitions and crossovers

  • Faster acceleration and glide

  • More consistent energy transfer between strides

  • Reduced fatigue over long ice sessions

Profile Options Available

We currently offer a range of single, split, and multi-radius profiles to suit every skating style.

Single Radius Profiles

9′ Radius – Quick turns, agile play, responsive acceleration

10′ Radius – Smooth glide, great all-around control

Spit Radius Profiles

9.5′ / 10.5′ – Balanced mix of agility and glide

10′ / 13′ – Power skaters and defensemen who demand stability

SSM Natural Curve Profiles

Developed in collaboration with the Swedish Hockey Institute, the Natural Curve (NC) system mirrors the natural biomechanics of a skater’s stride. Each curve — like the NC Quick 10 — blends forward balance and rear stability for unmatched feel and performance.

Quad Profiles

The Quad series comes from ProSharp’s renowned research into motion-specific profiling. These four-zone profiles distribute your blade contact strategically to support every phase of skating—acceleration, speed, control, and stability. Each Quad profile is designed to mimic the natural progression of a skating stride, ensuring consistent performance across every movement—from your first push to your final edge stop.

Local Precision, Trusted by Our Community

SchwendiSharpens is proud to serve hockey players and figure skaters in Herriman, South Jordan, West Jordan, Kearns, Bluffdale, Draper, Lehi, American Fork, and across Salt Lake & Utah Counties. Precision isn’t just a promise — it’s our process. Every skate that comes across our machines is measured and sharpened with the same attention we’d give our own gear. Whether you’re a figure skater perfecting your landings or a hockey player chasing every edge, the right hollow and balance can completely transform your performance on the ice. Because small details make big differences on the ice.

​Our Sharpening Process

We don’t guess. We measure.

 

Before every sharpening, we:

  • Inspect the blade surface for wear, rust, or damage

  • Measure the existing hollow depth and alignment

  • Check for blade evenness and height across both skates

  • For figure skates, we also assess the No Skate Zone (NSZ) for wear and ensure proper toe-pick clearance

​
