What does It Feels Like on the Ice?
The Coronation Ace offers a smooth feel under the foot. Skaters often describe it as:
- Stable on edges — its 4 mm parallel sides provide a wider base, making it easier to learn deeper edges with a very secure, stable feel.
- Reliable for jumps — the increased secondary rocker combined with the 7 ft primary radius creates a springier lift‑off without feeling wobbly. The larger drag pick also helps landings feel safer by digging into the ice more effectively, creating a more stable angle.
- Easy to centre in spins — the more pronounced secondary rocker helps skaters find a consistent sweet spot and maintain controlled rotation.
- Responsive but not intimidating — ideal for skaters transitioning to more advanced blades.
- Cross‑cut toe pick – provides excellent grip for toe jumps without being overly sharp or “grabby,” helping skaters progress safely and confidently.
