SKATE SHARPENING

Find your cut. Then book it in.

Use the guide for a sensible starting point, compare every current SPARX ring, then carry your chosen cut straight into the sharpening booking.

OUR SHARPENING SETUP

SPARX Sharpener 3

Repeatable skate sharpening for player and goalie skates, with your chosen hollow carried into the booking.

GRIP ↔ GLIDE FINDER

Find your starting hollow

This is a starting recommendation, not a promise that one cut is “best”. SPARX itself bases its GripGlide quiz on age, height, weight, position, skating style and skill level.

Current hollow

How does your current cut feel?

Hollow type

Recommended starting point

1/2″RADIUS

A common all-round starting point.

More bite7/16″

More glide9/16″

Recommendation logic is deliberately conservative: 1/2″ is the common retail starting point; SPARX recommends 1/2″ for many younger/lighter skaters, 5/8″ can suit larger/heavier skaters, and goalies are commonly in the 3/8″–1/2″ range.

CURRENT SPARX OPTIONS

Grip to glide

Every Radius Ring currently listed by SPARX EU is shown below, plus all four FIRE rings. Tap any hockey hollow to use it in your booking.

More gripMore glide

FIRE — flat-bottom hollow

FIRE keeps a similar edge/bite feel to its named radius while increasing glide. SPARX currently offers 3/8″, 1/2″, 5/8″ and 3/4″ FIRE.

FLAT is a preparation/repair ring for removing an old hollow or blade damage before setting a new hollow — it is not the finished skating cut. BANDY is for bandy skate blades, not a normal hockey sharpening choice.

FIRE examples: 1/2″ FIRE has bite similar to 1/2″ Radius but glide closer to 11/16″ Radius; 5/8″ FIRE has bite similar to 5/8″ with glide closer to 13/16″.

MENTAL HEALTH HOCKEY

More than a player. More than a game.

“The toughest battles aren’t always on the ice. Talk. Reach out. You matter.”

The Mental Health Hockey collection gets its own proper section rather than being hidden inside clothing. Hoodies, tops and youth versions can all sit together with the message behind the range.

Stick flex help

Weight, height, strength, experience, shot style and stick length all used to find a sensible starting flex.

Find your flex →

STICK FLEX FINDER

Find the flex you can actually load.

This uses manufacturer guidance as the starting point rather than guessing from age alone. Weight sets the flex band; strength, experience and shot style fine-tune it. Height and age help flag the likely shaft family and stock-length issues.

LIVE FLEX VISUAL

80flex

Hybrid kick style

Visual bend: balanced

Softer / more bendStiffer / less bend

Visual only: under the same simulated load, a lower-flex shaft bends more and a higher-flex shaft bends less. The calculator result still uses the full player details below.

Manufacturer baseline.
Bauer recommends a little under half bodyweight in pounds; Warrior says start near half.

Length matters.
CCM says cutting roughly 5 cm can add about 5 flex to the finished feel.

Feel still wins.
A player should be able to load the shaft without fighting it.

Player details

Change any answer and the result updates live. The calculator shows an ideal target feel, then converts it to the nearest real retail flex rather than inventing a number you cannot buy.

Age group

Used mainly for shaft-size/length guidance, not as a hard flex cap.

Height (cm)

Weight (kg)

Experience

Strength for size

Main shot feel

Planned shaft length change

For cuts, the calculator compensates the printed flex so the finished stick lands closer to the target feel.

Position

Saved for a future “Find my stick” filter; it does not force the flex up or down by itself.

Stick hand

Left = left hand is lower/closer to the blade. Right = right hand is lower/closer to the blade.

Current stick flex (optional)

Leave blank for a new player.

How does the current stick feel?

Most useful when the current stick is a similar playing length.

Please enter a realistic height and weight.

Closest real flex to try first

80flex

Ideal target feel: about 78 flex • also try 75

Likely SeniorBalanced feelHybrid kick styleStock lengthHand: not sure

At 75 kg (165 lb), the manufacturer starting band is roughly 74–83. Your ideal target feel is around 78. Because sticks are sold in real manufacturer flex steps, 80 is the closest current common option, with 75 also worth trying.

No cutting adjustment is being applied. Check that the finished stick reaches roughly chin-to-nose height on skates and that the shaft can be loaded comfortably.

This is a starting recommendation, not a guarantee. Kick point, shaft dimensions, final stick length, technique and personal preference can all change the best choice.

Calculator logic uses current manufacturer guidance. The “ideal target” can be between retail flex numbers; the recommended shop flex is always snapped to a real current flex used by CCM/Warrior-style retail ranges.

FIND MY STICK

Your stocked stick matches

Ranked against your calculated flex, shaft family and hand.

Your master inventory confirms the model, age group, price and quantity of these four physical player sticks, but it does not yet record the exact flex, hand or curve of each individual stick. So this finder will rank the correct model family without pretending an unrecorded variant is definitely on the shelf.
