Consultations (appointment only)
High-level skaters must book an appointment for consultations with Marlon or John. If you know what boot and blade you need to purchase or try on, book an appointment for a fitting.
Boot Fitting (walk-ins are first-come first-serve based on staff availability; appointment only for high level skaters)
There is a non-refundable fitting fee deposit of $35 on our figure skating boots and hockey skates on the day of your fitting appointment. Higher-level skaters must book an appointment a week in advance for a fitting with Marlon or John. There are no walk-ins for boot fittings for higher-level skaters.
Skate Sharpening (drop-off service, pick-up is a minimum 24 hours after drop-off, no walk-ins)
We provide skate sharpening for figure and hockey skates. You do not need an appointment to drop-off your skates for skate sharpening. Skates must be dropped off at the Pro Shop during Pro Shop open hours only, and can be picked up at a later day. If you drop-off your skates on Friday evening through Saturday, your skates will be ready on Monday.
Appointments for sharpening can be made a week in advance. If you have an appointment, the customer can drop their skates off on the date and time of their appointment and wait for their skates to be sharpened to take home that same day.
Blade Mounting (appointment only, no walk-ins)
We provide blade mounting services, and rivet and screw replacements for figure and hockey skates. The skater must be present to mark-up the skate and or try the skate on. This service requires an appointment during our available skate hours.
Boot Reconditioning (appointment only, no walk-ins)
Stretching boots or boots punched, remounting, plugging and waterproofing services are also available. This service requires an appointment, may require two days before pick-up, and may require you to return during available skate hours.
For all services, skates must be dropped off and paid for in the Pro Shop during Pro Shop hours only and must be picked up at a later date from the drop off date.
