How to clean Edea ice skates? ›

CLEANING AND POLISHING YOUR BOOTS

Simply use warm water and some gentle soap to wipe your boots and make them sparkle. Skating will cause scratches to your boots. But don't worry simply use Edea Polish to touch up your boots.

For skates, the most important maintenance steps you can take are drying your skates after each use, covering your blades during transportation, sharpening your blades when they get dull, replacing damaged blades, and maintaining your blade holders.

EDEA boots are formable to your foot, but not like other brands. You DO NOT put them in the oven. You must heat them up in the spot that needs molding with a HEAT GUN (1500 -1800 watts).

Clean Your Skates

To do this, use a clean microfibre cloth and some warm soapy water to gently wipe over all surfaces of your skate boot and blades. If your boot has laces, you may wish to put these in the washing machine with your usual laundry load to get them back to their optimal condition.

Ultra Lightweight

The nearly-weightless feel of the Edea skate gives wearers the ability to skate faster and jump higher than ever before.

If you're skating hard every day, depending on your amount of sharpening, blades will usually last one to two or three years. Quality ice skates may last several years longer, depending on the skater's investment of time and maintenance.

-If you live in a particularly humid climate, you may still exerpience some spotty rusting, even with soakers. If this is the case, wipe down your blades with WD-40 or olive oil before storing your blades and this will help prevent the rust from starting.

Ensuring skates are dry after each practice, game, or skate session is important. Keep a clean, soft, dry cloth in your gym bag or hockey bag specifically to wipe down your skate blades after you get off the ice and before you toss them in a bag to take them home.

Don't press down! You should be able to feel any rough spots or areas that catch your finger or fingernail. If you notice that, it's time to get your skates sharpened! Feel the Grip: For this method, use the pad of your fingertip or thumb and gently brush back and forth down the hollow of the skate across the edges.

Do skates get dull over time? ›

The more frequently you use your skates and hours of ice time ice, the more often they will need to be sharpened. It's good practice to sharpen your skates when it starts to feel as if you're not gripping the ice as much as you should.

You can't overboot in Edea because ankle motion is different.

Piano has integrated the anti-shock system and a more compact structure. It's on the feet of the most powerful skaters. Ice Fly has the 'Dual sole' to dampen the vibrations of the ice and a more flexible structure. It's on the feet of those who want to bend more.

Simply clean the boots with soap and water. When the boot are dry apply the polish using the special brush or simply dip a sponge in the polish squeezing off the excess and gently dab the scuffed area. No brushing or polishing required.

Cleaning the inside of your skates won't do much for the longevity of the boots, but you'll be glad to get in the habit of it – and your nose will thank you, too. There are a few ways people clean their boots, but we recommend using water with a little bit of vinegar. Scrub with a towel and then air dry.
