The Synchro blade was designed with the rule book in mind. We took a hard look at what it takes to score points. Instead of cutting the heel off a freeskate blade, we designed a new one, focusing on edge quality and the specifics of that tight synchro spacing. The result was a unique profile that combines the features for free skating, synchro skating, edgework, and footwork.
