Lets discuss the various Short Track Blade Brands on the market to see if there is an speed advantage of one brand and model over the other?

Seems like Maple & Evo are on most world class skaters?

Which do you use and has anyone done any lap time test comparisons?

Thanks
Julia

Hello everyone,

I just started skating on the new Maple G-force blades and after a few trainings on the blades I find that there is more stability and it is easier to keep the pressure in the corners.
I am 80kg and it's the first blade that feels like it can hold my weight. Definately a keeper for me :)
Apart from the other guys also a 50kg girl in my team is on them but for lighter people they are made more flexible and she also loves them.
Info on top speed later in the season :)
