Attempted copies to replicate this iconic model continue to fail. The heat treatment process is part of what makes the blade so responsive on the ice, compounded with lower stanchion height for increased stability and control. If deciding between this or a Gold Seal, please take into account your skating tendencies; particulary with knee bend and how quickly you prefer to hit your toe picks.
If you want to hit your picks quicker, this blade is your best option. If you want to hit them later, head over to the Gold Seal page to learn more!
This blade design is specifically engineered for those who are a bit stiffer and explosive in their skating technique with a very forgiving sweet spot when executing spins.
Lower Stanchion Height
Reduces distance between blade and boot for heightened control, stability and precision.
Aggressive Toe Pick Design
Toe pick built to support explosive jump take-offs and accelerate entry into complex spins.
Tapered Drag Pick
Minimizes friction and disruption during spins and death spirals, enhancing rotational smoothness.
Rocker 8FT
Size Range 8"-12"
4.1mm Parallel-Sided Blade
A wider profile enhances blade rigidity and stability, offering a confident platform for advanced edge work.
Subtle Secondary Rocker
A subtle rocker has less curvature under the ball of the foot, offering a more forgiving balance point for spins. While it provides more blade contact, it may slightly reduce spin speed.
If you're aiming to improve spin speed, consider the Gold Seal.
Straight-Cut Toepick
Straight cut picks on the Pattern 99 allow for deeper penetration into the ice and a bit of pre-rotation on your jumps unlike cross cut picks which are dig into the ice less and and provide greater traction.
