What is included when you buy the PROSHARP BAUER ADVANTEDGE
Below we have attahced an picture what is included when you buy the PROSHARP BAUER ADVANTEDGE machine.
Which Grinding Wheels do you need?
1. Consider Your Skating Style
* Hockey Players: Typically prefer a deeper hollow, which provides more bite and grip on the ice. Look for grinding wheels that create a radius of hollow (ROH) between 1/2" and 5/8".
* Figure Skaters: Usually require a shallower hollow for more glide and smoother transitions. Wheels designed for a 7/16" to 9/16" ROH are common.
* Speed Skaters: Often use a flat or nearly flat grind to maximize glide. Choose a wheel that provides minimal hollow, such as 1" or more.
2. Blade Material
* Standard Steel Blades: Most grinding wheels are compatible, but ensure the wheel is suited for regular steel.
* High-Performance Steel (e.g., Blacksteel, Carbon Steel): Some premium blades may require specific wheels designed to handle harder materials without excessive wear.
3. Desired Edge Profile
* Standard Radius of Hollow (ROH): This is the most common profile, suitable for most players. Choose wheels that specify ROH in inches or millimeters.
* Flat Bottom V (FBV): Offers a unique profile that combines glide and bite. Ensure your wheel is designed for FBV if this is your preference.
* Custom Profiles: If you have a custom profile in mind, check for wheels that can create the desired edge shape.
4. Durability and Lifespan
* Look for grinding wheels made from durable materials that offer a long lifespan, especially if you frequently sharpen your skates.
* On average, a wheel will sharpen about 75 pairs of skates. Your PROSHARP skate sharpener will notify you when it’s time for a new wheel!
5. Compatibility
* Ensure the grinding wheel is specifically designed for use with the PROSHARP BAUER ADVANTEDGE. Not all wheels are universally compatible, so it's important to check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
6. Consult with Experts
* If you’re unsure, consult with a pro shop or contact MonkeySports customer support for guidance on selecting the right grinding wheel based on your skill level, skating style, and the type of ice you usually play on.
By considering these factors, you can select the ideal grinding wheel for your PROSHARP BAUER ADVANTEDGE, ensuring your skates are sharpened to perfection every time. Below you will find the types of wheels that is offered with the PROSHARP BAUER ADVANTEDGE to find the perfect fit for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Sharpening
1. What is skate blade sharpening?
Skate blade sharpening involves creating a hollow groove on the bottom of the blade, resulting in two sharp edges for better ice grip.
2. How often should I sharpen my hockey or figure skates?
For optimal performance, it's recommended to sharpen your hockey or figure skates after every 2-3 hours of ice time.
3. How many sharpening cycles should I use for my skate blades?
The standard recommendation is 3 sharpening cycles for skate blades. However, you can adjust the number of cycles based on your specific sharpening needs and preferences.
Cycle
1. What is a sharpening cycle in skate blade maintenance?
A sharpening cycle refers to the process where the grinding wheel travels down and back along the skate blade to sharpen it.
2. How many sharpening cycles should I run when changing skate blade hollows?
We recommend running 3–5 sharpening cycles when switching to a different hollow on your skate blades.
3. How many sharpening cycles are needed for new skate steel?
Start with 3 cycles using a FLAT grinding wheel to level the blade. Then, follow up with 10 cycles using your preferred hollow grinding wheel.
4. How do I know if I’ve completed enough sharpening cycles?
You’ll know you’ve run enough cycles when a visible burr appears on both edges along the entire length of the steel.
Hollow and Grinding Wheels
1. What is a skate blade hollow?
A skate blade hollow is the concave groove, or archway, in the center of the blade that creates two sharp edges for better ice contact.
2. What hollow options do you offer for skate sharpening?
PROSHARP BAUER ADVANTEDGE Grinding Wheels come in 10 different hollow sizes, plus a FLAT grinding wheel option. Hollow sizes range from 1/4” (7mm) for deep hollows with more bite to 1 3/8” (34mm) for shallow hollows with more glide.
3. What is skate sharpener calibration?
Calibration ensures that a skate sharpener provides even edges on both the inside and outside of the skate blade, resulting in consistent performance.
4. How long does a PROSHARP BAUER ADVANTEDGE Grinding Wheel last?
These grinding wheels are designed to sharpen up to 75 pairs of skates, with 3 cycles per blade. The sharpener will alert you when the grinding wheel's life is low at 10% and again at 0% when it’s time to replace it.
5. How do I choose the right skate sharpening grinding wheel?
For balanced bite and glide, we recommend starting with a hollow between 5/8” (16mm) and 3/4” (19mm). This range covers the most popular skate sharpening preferences.
6. What’s the difference between a hollow grinding wheel and a flat grinding wheel?
Hollow grinding wheels are used for sharpening skates, creating the concave groove that forms the blade’s edges. A FLAT grinding wheel, on the other hand, is used to remove blade imperfections and reset the blade before applying a new hollow.
7. What is blade trauma in skate sharpening?
Blade trauma refers to imperfections or damage on the skate blade edges, which can affect performance on the ice.
Blade Maintenance
1. What is a burr on skate blades?
A burr is the excess material from ground steel that forms on the outside edges of your skate blades during sharpening. It needs to be removed before skating to ensure optimal performance.
2. What is level sharpening for skate blades?
Level sharpening refers to achieving even edges on both the inside and outside of your skate blades, ensuring balanced performance on the ice.
3. What is a Blade Angle Tester, and how is it used?
A Blade Angle Tester is a tool designed to check that your skate blades have level edges, ensuring consistent sharpening results.
4. What is a hone or sharpening stone?
A hone or sharpening stone is a tool used to remove burrs from the edges of your skate blades after sharpening, ensuring smooth and precise blade edges.
5. How do I properly hone my skate blades?
To hone your skate blades, press the hone firmly and flush against the blade, angle it at 3-5 degrees, and run it once or twice down the runner to effectively remove any burrs.
6. Should I use a different hone for coated steel versus non-coated steel?
Yes, for coated steel, use the porcelain side of the X-5 or X-3 Combi Hone along with the Gummi Hone. For non-coated steel, you can use the X-5 Combi Hone, X-3 Combi Hone, Gummi Hone, Basic Stone, or Tear Drop Hone.
Goalie skates
1. What’s the difference between sharpening player skates and goalie skates?
Yes, there are key differences in sharpening player skates versus goalie skates. The entry and exit points, as well as the blade height, vary between the two. Note: The skate sharpener cannot automatically detect skate types, so you’ll need to manually select the correct mode before sharpening.
2. Can I sharpen goalie skates with cowlings?
Yes, you can sharpen goalie skates with cowlings, even down to Junior size 3.
