Ice Hockey Helmet www.secondhandskates.co.uk
With safety being top priority on head injuries and concussions in the professional and amateur hockey leagues, the helmet will be your most important investment. This is probably the one piece of equipment you should get "new the first time around ", so that you know it properly fits you. As an adult player, my personal preference and advice to all is that you should get a cage . Kids can also use a cage but a visor is usually better or kids as they are still learning to play. You might think that a cage would diminish the view, but it didn't when I played. Your helmet will have straps with push-button fasteners to latch the cage to the helmet. There will also be a chin strap. Be aware that you can get replacements for these! Its good to own two helmets, once you become established just encase one gets broken while playing a puck to the helmet can cause some impressive damage that you wouldnt imagine! Also consider the colour as it would be good to try keep to your teams colours. Since you'll want the helmet to fit well, try these out in a store (at least to get the size) if you do decide to buy a used one! www.secondhandskates.co.uk
Ice Skate Grinding / Sharpening secondhanskates.co.uk
At secondhandskates.co.uk, we place our pride into getting you & your family the right quality hockey equipment. This doesn’t mean the most expensive equipment, either – we’re talking about the PROPER usable equipment.Not many in house pro shops in the UK really take the time to explain the basics of skate sharpening and the pain's that come along with it. So we hope this will give you an idea of what exactly goes on when your skates get sharpened.We want you to be as educated you all as much as possible in all things hockey, and we hope this brings you a better experience on the ice!Skate Sharpening -- What Is going on? A skate is sharpened by grinding a semicircle into each skate blade. The semicircle is called a “hollow.”The hollow creates the edges both inside and out. The “hollow” is created by a diamond tipped dresser on the ice rink or skate shops skate sharpening machine. The hollow can be ground in a variety of depths anywhere from 2” to ¼”. Each depth will have a different feel when you are on the ice. The most common grinds are: Goalies: 3/4” – 1″ (shallower), Figure Skaters: 1/2”- 3/4″ and Players: 1/2 – 5/8 (deeper).
”The smaller the number, the deeper the hollow will be; the larger the number, the shallower the hollow will be.Conventional Skate Sharpening A deeper hollow will give you more “grip” on the ice, thus your skate blade will “feel” sharper.Advantages: Edges will “bite” more in turns, giving more control to hold the edge(s).Disadvantages: Could cause you to lose speed due to the fact the blade is digging into the ice surface more.A shallower hollow will still have “grip” – but less than that of a deeper hollow. Thus having the feeling of not being as sharp.Advantages: a smoother gliding feeling due to less drag. Easier stops and starts.Disadvantages: Less “bite” in turns. Edges may feel like they are sliding out from under you. Choosing a grind will depend on your personal preference. www.secondhandskates.co.uk
