What does the 'T' in T'Blade stand for?
The logo of the Red Flame and its t’blade name means in full “Thermal Blade”.
The heat of the blade is one of the main advantages of the t’blade system.
Due to the very low mass of metal (blade thickness is 1 mm) the contact area may heat up faster and to a greater degree than traditional blades during skating. Due to the low mass of metal the blade heats faster and becomes hotter (+40%) than a traditional blade which improves the gliding on the ice.
In conclusion, a higher heat of the blade provides better maneuverability, easier acceleration and reduces speed loss.

But a very good video. This is a very extensive and complete review on the T-blade subject. First review of such length and detail on UA-cam that I am aware of! Top notch work!💪👌
+Björn Beyers Thanks man! We did put some work and time into making this video so we hope we can really help some people with it.
+XEO Lifestyle - Discover Freestyle Ice Skating I am very sure it will. I remember when I first wanted to get T-blades I had many questions and this video covers all the questions a first time T-blader would have 😊
I would add, that the 9mm, 11mm, or 13mm or above is not based on the degree of sharpness, a new 15mm runner is sharp. The number is in relation to the depth of the hollow. The lower the number, the deeper the hollow.
+JediFarce Thanks man! I appreciate all extra info!
Can you make a vid on how to order because I don’t understand the options
Ive been looking for them everywhere
Very nice video, well done guys ! I have been looking for informations on t-blades for a few days without finding anything interesting and now with your video I almost have all the answers ! The only thing that I still don't know is if I can change the holders by myself on my Graf Ultra G7 (46 EU). Normally they allow me to change holders by myself easily to put the t-blades one. But... I don't find any tutorial or advice for it. Is it risky ?
i got a problem .. so i have a t-blade skate, but i want to change the boot itself, and i can not find boots to buy online, only in one store in the UK. Well, those are Bauer Vapor X200 boots, and were removed from a regular hockey blade. can i replace my old tblade boots with the vapor? are the holes in the same position? according to my old ccm regular skates, no. but it would be much cheaper to buy just the boots. #savemoney thx for the help folks!
hey i want to buy t blades, but I've already looked at the website and I have size 42 and my holder is 263 mm, but there is only size 264 mm, when I go down there is only 256mm. Would go to the holder of 264mm to put on it?
nice video !!! If sombody of xeo lifestyles community wants to buy cheap t blades by these one : t-blade t66
how to pick our size on tblades?...somehow im very confirtable with a size 6 on bauer supreme hockey skates. what size should i pick if i want to play on graf's tblade?
How do I know what size f holder I need for the size of my iceskate? I have size 45 EU. Does my holder need to be 274mm then?
Which t blades shauld I buy?

You could buy new holders online.

Can you also play ice hockey with t blades?
Of course you can, maybe they might break a little bit fast due to puck impact.
XEO Lifestyle - Freestyle Ice Skating thank you
XEO Lifestyle - Freestyle Ice Skating thx for the response 👍👌 But im going to buy me ice hockey skates and use the t blades for freetime ice skating
How come some t blades have 4 screws and some have 5 screws on the holders?
You forgot to mention why thy are called T-blades.... 😂😂😂. The whole "thermal" aspect.😜
+Björn Beyers True, for Ice Freestylers it might not be that important as they are not really into speed but more into the edge control. Nevertheless, it is written in the video description and the blog post what the 'T' of T'Blade stands for. Btw, it seems that you have watched the video very carefully! Thumbs up for you!
