All four on the heel and 6 out of 8 on the ball. I hoped it was a temporary mount, for now, in case I need to make adjustments…How many screws are in there? Is it a permanent or temporary mount?
This is a permanent mount, but mine were like this too. I was worried at first, but after a couple sessions on the ice, the gap was gone. My blades are still secure, so I guess it might be normal?All four on the heel and 6 out of 8 on the ball. I hoped it was a temporary mount, for now, in case I need to make adjustments…
Thanks! That makes me feel better about this.This is a permanent mount, but mine were like this too. I was worried at first, but after a couple sessions on the ice, the gap was gone. My blades are still secure, so I guess it might be normal?
I am referring to the gap between the sole plate of the blade and the sole. Maybe I’ve just never noticed the gaps in my previous skates, or they went away like @emilinkaa reports.Do you mean the blade is much shorter than the sole, or that there is a gap between the sole plate of the blade and the sole?
Interesting. It’s definitely common with a temp mount. Haven’t had this personally with a permanent mount, but others obviously have, so perhaps it’s not too much of a worry. The gap doesn’t look too large, so hopefully it does settle down!All four on the heel and 6 out of 8 on the ball. I hoped it was a temporary mount, for now, in case I need to make adjustments…
