Overview

The flagship product of Sparx Hockey. The third generation Sparx Sharpener and its unprecedented new high-tech features raises your sharpening game to a whole new level - all for less than the cost of today's top end skates. The Sparx Sharpener 3 delivers unmatched precision, accuracy and performance to players of all levels.

BLUETOOTH CONNECTIVITY

The all-new Sparx Sharpener 3 and Sparx Sharpener 3 PRO feature Bluetooth connectivity - the first of its kind in the skate sharpening world. Connect the Sparx Sharpener 3 to the revolutionary SPARX BEAM and to the SPARX APP and unlock a whole new world of controls and features.

MULTI-FUNCTION LCD DISPLAY

A simplified user interface allows the Sparx Sharpener to be intuitive - adjust number of sharpening cycles, monitor the life of your Grinding Ring, receive safety alerts, and sharpen - all from the easy-to-use control pad. The custom electronics continuously controls and monitors all sharpening functions to ensure an accurate and safe sharpening.

SELF-CENTERING SKATE CLAMP

Our patented skate clamp design perfectly aligns the skate to the grinding ring, eliminating the challenges posed by varying blade types and thicknesses. Simply depress the clamp lever, insert the skate into the skate clamp and you’re ready to go. No need to line up the skate blade with the grinding ring – the self-centering skate clamp takes the guesswork out of achieving a perfect sharpening every time.

PRECISE & POWERFUL CARRIAGE

The Carriage moves the Grinding Ring across the skate blade with consistent pressure, translation speed, and RPM. This unparalleled consistency ensures a smooth surface finish every time and the consistent pressure and speed preserves the blade’s profile/rocker for the life of the blade, unlike traditional sharpeners that alter profiles after just a few sharpenings.

ON-BOARD FILTRATION SYSTEM

Dust accumulation is inevitable when sharpening skates, but we have you covered. The Sparx Sharpener features an integrated filter system and powerful fan that collects and filters out dust particles, allowing your sharpener – and surroundings – to remain clean. The advanced electronics automatically notifies you when its time to change your filter.

SKATE COMPATIBILITY

  • Hockey Skates
  • Goalie Skates
  • Figure Skates* (Note: will NOT fit tapered figure skate blades)

*Requires an additional adapter, which is sold separately.

Please Note:

YOU MUST BUY A GRINDING RING to go along with your Sparx Sharpener in order for it to work!

Please Note: Grinding Ring Sold Separately. USB power plug for Sparx BEAM not included.

Size Guide
Sparx Grinding Ring Sizing Guide


Understanding Radius of Hollow

Radius of Hollow is simply how deep the groove is that is cut into the skate blade from sharpening. The deeper the cut, the more grip the blade will have on the ice. The shallower the cut, the more glide the blade will have on the ice. A smaller Radius Ring (5/16”, 3/8”, 7/16”) will cut deeper into the blade creating more bite, while a larger Radius Ring (1-1/8”, 1”, 7/8”) will not cut as deep, creating more glide.



Choosing the Right Radius of Hollow

Choosing the right hollow is a matter of personal preference, whether you want more bite or more glide. The most common Radius of Hollow is a 1/2”, which is what you will find in most retail settings. We recommend 1/2” for most youth players (less body weight) and then increasing the radius (9/16”, 5/8”) as the player gets larger.
