How do I get logged back into this website? I'm still logged in on my phone, but I cannot get logged back in on my computer for some reason. It's been giving error messages for more than a week now!

And not to be one-upped, you can now get Little Caesar's pants for nearly $500 shipped.

In Topic: Skate Sharpener

22 May 2024 - 08:21 AM

I have the Sparx second gen that I bought new in 2021 for roughly $800 for the machine, plus a couple hundred more for some grinding rings and essential accessories (blade level checker).  I love, love, love it.  Yes, it was a big investment, but reliable and quality skate sharpening options are limited here in Atlanta, as we only have one true LHS, and otherwise, you're putting yourself at the mercy of the random teen at the rink who probably doesn't know what they're doing and doesn't care either.

 

After owning for a few years now, it is well worth the money for multiple reasons: (1) the convenience of not having to drive somewhere; (2) consistent and predictable results; (3) the ability to ensure it's done to my personal preferences by doing it myself; (4) the ability to do "touch ups" after a couple of skates, rather than wait for a full-blown sharpening; (5) long-term cost savings, now that both of my teen boys also skate multiple times a week.

 

If you decide to go in the Sparx direction, shoot me a PM in advance.
