Every detail in this blade’s construction was engineered to help you perform at your absolute best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Makes the Platinum Flex Blade Exceptional\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreating the fastest short track blade in the world took a series of deliberate steps and no shortcuts:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePremium Steel Selection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMost blade manufacturers use steel that arrives in rolled coils. That steel has a natural curve and memory, even after grinding. For the Platinum, we went further by paying extra to source flat sheets of steel, eliminating unwanted curvature from the start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrecision Grinding Process\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe start with 1.3mm thick steel and grind 0.1mm off each side. This might sound small, but it’s a critical detail. Unlike others who grind multiple blades at once using fast, cost-cutting methods, we slow grind just two blades at a time using high-end German grinding stones. This prevents warping caused by heat and ensures flatness with incredible accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImproved Bonding and Slot Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe steel sits in a slot with space for glue. Too much space allows for warping. After testing a range of adhesives, we found one with superior bonding strength, allowing us to reduce the slot width by 0.1mm. Less gap means less movement and more precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarp-Free Curing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the glue sets, we hold the blade in a custom jig at no fewer than nine points, depending on its length. It stays in place for 14 hours to guarantee the bend is locked in correctly. These jigs are expensive and custom-made, but they’re crucial to ensuring every blade maintains its intended shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFriction-Reducing Side Polish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe apply a high-gloss ‘brilliance polish’ to the sides of each blade to reduce friction when the blade touches the ice on deep leans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuned Tube Stiffness\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe collaborated with multiple top national teams to test and refine the tube’s flex. If it’s too stiff, it can cause skaters to crash. If it’s too soft, it loses power. Using CAD-CAM design and real-world testing, we achieved the optimal balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Result\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery part of the Platinum Flex blade has been built with one goal: to create the best-performing short track blade in the world. No cost was spared, and no corners were cut. We’re proud of the result, and we think you’ll feel the difference on the
