Hey there. Thank you so much for the question. The simple answer is I essentially use the Step Steel stock profiling. TRUE uses Step Steel in their skates, and I just like to have them sharpened from there. I am not able to find what exact profiling this is. Goalie skates tend to come with about a 27 profile, so I am assuming this is around what it is. But the reason I do this is because I like to feel flatter in my skates when I move my weight to the balls of my feet. I don't like to feel locked into my toes, or forced too far forward onto my toes by the skate boot or my profiling. I also feel like my pushes are better with more steel available to push with.
IMHO, this durability issue is why people, especially non pros, should just get the 2 piece model. Most wouldn't be on the ice as much and would have their skates breakdown after the warranty period.
Hey Hayden, I hope your offseason is going well! Did TRUE ever end up repairing the blade holders?
Hi Hayden, kinda unrelated but i was wondering do you get your one piece skates profiled? If so, what profile do you use and why?
