How deeply do you get your skates sharpened? It’s important to know how your skates are sharpened so that you can experiment with your radius of hollow based on your playing style, body weight and ice conditions. Some cuts offer superior grip while others offer increased glide. Choosing a radius for your sharpening is a compromise between the two. Below are some common cuts listed from most grip/bite to most glide. There are others, but these cover most skaters:

GRIP/BITE || (3/8”) , (7/16”) , (1/2”) , (9/16”) , (5/8”) , (11/16”) , (3/4”) || GLIDE

In addition to radius of hollow (ROH) there are other shapes of cuts as well. One of the most popular alternatives is called Flat Bottom V (FBV). FBV is supposed to offer better glide while maintaining grip. I talk about FBV sharpening here: https://youtu.be/S3EXfZVF_gU
