Just like your routines, our blades have to be millimeter perfect. A meticulous 55-step process is then undertaken to ensure a robust, flexible, competitive blade that’s made to go the distance. And finally, our master craftsmen apply their expertise for the ultimate finish. BLADE SELECTOR FREESTYLE & PAIRS GALAXY BIGGER JUMPS GOOD FLIGHT PROFESSIONAL BETTER SPINS BEST BIGGER PHANTOM JUMPS BETTER GOLD STAR SPINS DANCE & SYNCHRO MK DANCE DYNASTY FLIGHT FIRST CLASS FOR BEGINNERS. The MK Flight was released in 2015 to meet the specific needs of the entry level skater. As skaters’ needs developed and changed over the years, the team at MK set out to create a blade that satisfied the elementary market. Unlike our beginner blades of the past, the Flight’s profile has been flattened to perfectly suit boot/blade combination sets. The Flight is also the lightest blade of its kind in the world! All of which gives beginners the ‘edge’ as they set off on their journey to push boundaries. Made of 1075 Carbon steel, no blade has this quality for the price. SKILL LEVEL RECREATIONAL AND SINGLE JUMPS 1 GALAXY NO LIMITS TO YOUR PROGRESSION. The latest offering in the MK product range, the new MK Galaxy features an unmatched chrome finish and cross-cut teeth. While skaters leave their boot/blade combination sets for the first time, the Galaxy is an option which provides optimum bite for those learning their toe jumps. It has been expertly designed to accommodate all basic skills required of the beginner freestyle and synchronized skater. SKILL LEVEL SINGLE JUMPS 1 PROFESSIONAL DOES THE JOB AND MORE. The MK Professional is widely acclaimed for its balance, performance and style. A parallel sided blade, the Professional is the premier choice of coaches around the world for their experienced freestyle students who are working on their axel up to the double lutz jump. The elongated 7 ft rocker profile has minimal blade contact with the ice while performing spins, allowing you to create less friction for a faster and longer spin. PROFESSIONAL - REVOLUTION SKILL LEVEL OPTIONS SINGLE AND DOUBLE JUMPS REVOLUTION AND PARABOLIC 1 2 PHANTOM HAUNTS THE COMPETITION. The performance advantages of the MK Phantom cannot be overstated for the advanced freestyle skater. A legendary option, the Phantom is side honed, tapered and specifically designed for triple and quadruple jumps. Taking information from world-class skaters, the MK engineers were advised to build this blade with a smaller 7 ft radius section to allow for deeper edges and easier turns. Designed for the explosive jumper, the crosshatched teeth enable jumpers to secure the ice deeply and an enlarged top toe pick is sure to aid in toe spotting. At Sochi 2014, this blade was worn by multiple medallists and is certainly no stranger to the podium. PHANTOM - REVOLUTION SKILL LEVEL OPTIONS TRIPLE AND QUAD JUMPS REVOLUTION AND PARABOLIC 3 4 MADE IN ENGLAND Designed and crafted in the UK. Exported to the 4 corners of the earth for global domination. GOLD STAR THE UNDISPUTED KING OF SPIN. The choice of numerous World and Olympic Champions, this superb blade epitomizes MK’s craftsmanship. The MK Gold Star is side honed and tapered which provides more defined edges and increased angle for tighter turns. Due to the complexity of its secondary radius, the Gold Star has more of a heel lift than most freestyle blades which also aids in spin technique. If you’re an advanced freestyle skater performing triple or quadruple jumps who’s seeking a blade which will enhance spins, the Gold Star is our recommendation. GOLD STAR - REVOLUTION SKILL LEVEL OPTIONS TRIPLE AND QUAD JUMPS REVOLUTION AND PARABOLIC 3 4 The unique curvature of a Parabolic blade enables it to bite deeper into the ice. This means smoother, sharper and more energetic spins, turns and edge work no matter what level you’re skating at. And, as your weight is centered due to precision geometry, you have increased levels of control and confidence to maximize your true potential. TRADITIONAL BLADE PARABOLIC BLADE DANCE CHAMPION TWIZZLE MACHINE. When it comes to dance blades, look no further than the podiums to make an educated decision. At Sochi 2014, every ice dance medalist used the MK Dance for its slimline design, allowing the dancer to move from one edge to the other much quicker. Essentially, the unique configuration of this blade allows skaters the advantage of employing less body lean to change their edges. It is because of this that the Dance is also worn by the world’s elite synchronized skating teams. This is the choice of champions. SKILL LEVEL OPTIONS DANCE AND REVOLUTION AND PARABOLIC SYNCHRONIZED SKATING DYNASTY SYNC TO NEW HEIGHTS. The new MK Dynasty is the only truly dedicated synchronized skating blade on the planet. Designed in conjunction with 25x U.S. Champion Haydenettes, this blade enhances performance to keep pace with the ever-growing demands of the sport. The MK Dynasty features: Increased stanchion height - because boot clearance equals deeper edges. Hybrid heel length - that finds middle ground between dancer foot placement and freestyle dynamics. Legendary pick configuration - for a confident anchor when you place the toe. Elegantly redesigned stanchions -enhance the pointed toe aesthetic.
