Dull really sharp hockey skates?

Question

hey guys, i recently bought a new pair of hockey skates and when i bought them the guy sharpened them for me at the store... today when i skated with them for the first time they were WICKED sharp and kinda hard to skate in, any tips on how to dull them down a little bit?

Answer 1

i like drag mine on the floor a little bit in the locker room right after i get them sharpened.. like while im sitting there before the game

Answer 2

nothing you can do except skate on them. i would say to run them on the opening of the bench like a goalie does before a game but its not smart if you dont know how to do it.

i personally like a really deep hollow because it helps me grip to the ice better when turning.

Answer 3

Rub the blades on the plastic border by the bench; should dull them a bit.

Answer 4

I like a real deep hollow and I love a sharp edge- but people like you are more common. Go to the bench, open the door, and gently rub the bottom of the blade on the plastic  a few times. Try it again, and keep doing that until you have it a little sharper then where you like it and let it wear down from there during skating.  That way it lasts a little longer.

Answer 5

yeah i like my skates dull 2 because i`m a goalie but anyway rub the blade on the plastic part of the boards where the doors r, or u could rubthem on a road but i wouldnt even do that

Answer 6

skate a lot in them.

or maybe bring them to another store
