Under the expertise of Dr. Benno M. Nigg, researchers at the world-renowned Human Performance Laboratory at the University of Calgary were engaged to investigate the differences in the performance characteristics of the Flare Skate Blade versus traditional skate blades, specifically: frictional properties, performance in agility tests (acceleration, maximum speed, and glide turns), subjective assessment, and changes in muscle activation patterns.
Flare Skate Blades reduced friction by 20.6% versus standard skate blades
Average performance was increased in every agility test (acceleration, maximum speed, and glide turns), and individual improvement was as high as 5.6%
After 5 weeks of testing, all subjects preferred the Flare Skate Blade to their original blades, and all said they would buy the Flare Skate Blade over traditional skate blades
"Players are more balanced in tighter spaces, they can cut and turn at a higher rate of speed, and their glide from not having their edges dig in is a significant advantage" - Scott Atkinson | Head Coach, University of Calgary Dinos Hockey (2001 - 2009)
