Skate Faster also sells the best hockey enhancement products available such as Fastrax.

Let us show you how to conserve energy, lower muscle fatigue, and improve your power in the latter part of the game. This is accomplished with skate balancing and Fastrax.

Fastrax is a revolutionary new product designed to improve the skates glide on the ice surface by incorporating millions of microscopic particles of Teflon into the solution. Fastrax can be applied to your skate blade anytime producing a much better glide (think of the surface of a non-stick frying pans). It is however best applied by your skate sharpener when the skate blade is hot (after a sharpening) allowing the Teflon particles to permiate and bond with the metal providing a longer lasting effect. Skate Faster supports the Fastrax product and highly recommends it to skate sharpeners and players to use regularly.

Skate Faster is your definitive source for everything skate related.

Pro Shops can become Skate Faster Centers by having their sharpeners trained to be certified Skate Faster Equipment Modification Technicians by trained professional Skate Faster staff.

Each Center has access to the private Skate Faster Center Web System allowing them to quickly create and lookup a player profile giving them the information they need to know about a players skate specifications in order to provide the perfect skate sharpening or contouring service.
