StayBent Short Track Blade Bender
Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout
The revolutionary StayBent Short Track Speed Skate Blade Bender is now available. With multiple patents , the new StayBent Short Track Speed Skate Bender is the biggest improvement in blade bending in more than a decade.
The StayBent Short Track Blade Bender is made in the Netherlands from a solid block of aluminum and features bronze bearings, heat-treated steel anvils, and an adjustable ergonomic handle. The unique frame design allows the technician to use finger grip strength while applying pressure to the blade to enable a much more accurate feel during the bending process. Because of the one-piece frame design, there is a substantial increase in torsional rigidity, and no possibility of frame structure degrading with use the way benders made with multipart frames do. The anvils are shaped to ensure that there is no possibility of damage to the blade tubes. Further, the anvil mounting system allows for tool-less installation of different shaped anvils to support new blade tube profiles, making this bender future-proof.
Unlike other benders on the market, this one won't damage your blades, and won't fall apart after a year of heavy use. In fact, the initial prototype of this bender was used to bend more than 500 pairs of blades and it still looked brand new.
This bender has been under development for more than two years. The StayBent team has worked hard to ensure that this is the last short-track speed skate blade bender you will ever need to buy.
BLADES
- Sharpen blades regularly for optimal performance. We recommend professional sharpening services.
- Inspect blades for any signs of damage or wear before each use.
- Customise blade alignment based on personal skating style for enhanced stability.
GENERAL CARE
- Wipe blades dry after each session to prevent rusting.
- Store skates in a cool, dry place to maintain their condition.
- Replace worn-out components promptly to ensure continued safety and performance.
LONG TRACK VS. SHORT TRACK
- Long track: opt for slightly longer blades to maximise gliding efficiency.
- Short track: shorter blades provide agility and quick manoeuvring on the tight turns of the track.
EXPERT TIP
- Contact us for personalised advice on sizing and maintenance.
- Invest in skate guards to protect blades during off-ice transport.
