do you have any tips to prevent them from rusting?
always dry ur blades when you get if the ice! I recommend using a microfibres towel.
Also don’t put guards back on your blades. Use soakers when the are being stored❤
@@What_a_coincidence thank you so much for replying! :)
I love these blades!
Since the early 1900s, toepick designs have changed very little. There are different toepick styles like straight cut, cross cut, and diagonal cut, all of which are over 100 years old. For instance, cross-cut toepicks appear in early skate patents, such as one from 1915 by George Browne. Despite their age, these designs are often marketed by manufacturers as offering different benefits to skaters. Cross-cut picks are claimed to provide superior grip, straight-cut picks are said to dig deep into the ice to increase jump height, and other styles are promoted for quick picking, stability, or momentum. However, when these toepicks were invented, figure skating was very different, and most of the jumps we know today hadn't been invented yet, or were performed in single rotation. For example, in 1936, William Blochinger described his cross-cut (or zig-zag) toepicks as being useful for both braking and jumping without unnecessarily digging into the ice. His design aimed to reduce resistance- (not to improve the grip), protect skaters' clothing, prevent falls, and be self-cleaning, with priorities other than jumping. Basically, the benefits attributed to different toepick styles today, such as increasing jump height or improved momentum, are largely creative marketing claims with no scientific backing and differ significantly from their original intended purposes. I am studying the history of ice skating, and I am also a coach and judge.
I Love you forever and ever You're the best Abroad ❤❤ To Watch you always make my Days Happier 😊Congrats 🎉🎉Thanks for everything ❤❤
Illia has John Wilson Gold Seal blades, not MKs.
Hi! I currently have blades that work but for the future I was wondering - I still do freeskate (working on doubles) but also do a lot of synchro. Are these blades fine for jumping in? Coming out of an ultima legacy 8.
❤❤
hoping to train with Benoit this summer, super excited!
Beautiful, gorgeous those two, absolutely the best those two kind persons.
Fascinating to hear them, to compliment enjoying their extraordinary beauty on the ice
that would be fun to see as exibition in the park like they do 😁
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Good answer kids! May you both have as much success or more as Tessa and Scott had. 🙏🕺🏻💃🏻⛸️🏆!
Bravissimi! Vi seguo e mi emoziono sempre! Diffondo i vostri video perché l Italia vi ama!! Siete un esempio di tenacia,dedizione, impegno! Verrete premiati sempre di piu perché il vostro è un talento naturale destinato a crescere!!❤❤ GRAZIE per l'emozione che trasmettete!!
Are you bother and sister
Yes, Oona and Gage Brown are sister and brother.
Are there gonna be new colors coming up?
Fantastic duo !!!!
..because we have the power to change people's minds based on us loving the moves and believing in those moves..if you have the confidence to own it, then in time you will be loved..that's just the way it is
Being free with no rules..that is where a real champion will be born
Подскажите пожалуйста! Они для дупеля подойдут?
У меня такие лезвия😊 Да для дупля подойдут, я прыгаю все до тройного тулупа, отличные лезвия. С ними легко переходить с ребра на ребро
@@kariwksа до этих лезвий, какая кривизна у тебя была? Хочу сменить Ultima аспирки на Мк лайт, или легаси 8. У легаси 8 кривизна, аспиры - та же кривизна, а у мк 7
@@kariwksа у них перекрешивающиеся зубцы?
literally impossible to spin in these😭
How? Just curious what do you feel makes spinning impossible?
@@sarahbocinsky oh thats because its a blade that is designed for the beginners, the blade is not curvy enough so it makes it harder to find the sweet spot as in the rocker. and since its not curvy enough you dont get as much speed and rotation as you want to get. i mean, in the end you do get used to it but it doesnt satisfy you and the spins are not consistent. you either get on your toe pick or it just makes your spin stop and you find yourself on the ground haha.
actually it's very possible, it's just technique getting in the way (or it being poor/minimal)
@@sydney1547 hmm, are u using these blades if yes then how many rotations do u get
@@selinyazoglu used to use them, but easily got 10+
Glad to see that Tessa and Scott were still inspiring the really new skaters even at the end of their career and beyond. I LOVE V/M but I never know if other dance teams feel the same way.
I love them 🥰🌹💐💚💛
1:30 V/M won Junior Worlds also in 2006 and it took them three years. You’re in good company.
I think your greatest achievement is putting a very high level of artistry and musicality into skating. All the awards follow from that. You two are amazing! 🔥🔥
I would like to live in Avignon!
Hey, thank you Oona and Gage for what you are doing for your art. I was never into skating, never disliked it either, but I was just neutral nothing special about it. And just yesterday your performance of "Nothing else matters" popped up on my UA-cam homepage and wow. You were so good I mean your perfect sync and your style I love it. And the shots were so great, to be like with you on the ice, that it made me start to be into it. So I already watched several videos because this is so cool. I think there is a lot to do beyond the sport and more the art. Like this video on UA-cam. Maybe doing some acting like a movie of 3 mins or more, actors, props, decors, maybe in special places...? and stuff like that. So much could be done! So again thank you and God bless you both!
there is an all year round ice rink in blanchardstown
In interviews they have this brother/sister vibe going on. It's nice.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Wow, I bought my Gold Star in 1976, blades are still good but not my old bones.
Hello sending a hug and all my love to you my spiritual older brother, thank you for making my 16th so sweet, I still can't believe you met my late grandmother.
Scott Hamilton I go to your ice rink
next episode
Ce sont mes idoles ! Je les adore ! Ils parlent parfaitement anglais !!
so adorable and humble...love them xxxx
Truth in so many ways!
French perfection - two gorgeous, sensitive and tender beings - it is almost impossible not to love them - their dances are full of love, passion, sensuality and elegance. Their every step on the ice is in harmony with the music - I adore them - God has given them that exceptional talent, because they put their hearts and souls into the dance ...
this guy made Kaori Sakamoto an olympic medalist! he's so gifted!
Gotta love their honesty and their diligence!!! Two of the most beautiful, talented and gorgeous ice dancers ever!!!
Nice people! Love their skating routines!
Greetings from Idaho!! Scott, you are amazing!! Not just in the skating but as a person! God is using you to touch many lives. You touched my spirit tonight! God bless you Scott and your family! 😊🙏❤️
We need a permanent ice rink in ireland for heavens sake.
Such a wonderful ice dance pair, and they can speak English too! I have seen some of their routines which remind me a lot of Torvill & Dean's routines such as Shepherd's Song and Song of India. So happy they won the Gold Medal in Beijing 2022. Thanks for posting.
Thank you Scott😊 I needed your testimony today🥰
Are they're couple? In relationship
no ! they are childhood friends :)
I'm astonished you're not passionate for each other; your performances say otherwise.
Most talented couple on ice , genuine in presenting the very unique performance . Love you, will follow you with best wishes. Thank you for being the unique couple!
Love the way guillimne express himself he's so cute
My go-to freestyle blades!💕
