Review on A&R Sports BladeGards Ice Skate Guard - Universal Custom Fit by Richard Cartner

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not "plug and play "

instructions were not clear. They suggest looking for a number on the blade that tells you how big the guard cut is. I couldn't find the number on the old skates. I was able to approximate the size by eye and mark with a marker and used a hacksaw and miter box to get nice straight edges. I also needed very thin needle nose pliers to set the springs in place. I don't want to overdramatize this; The whole thing took 5 minutes and the rings fit well and appear to work well. Just don't bring an unopened pack to the rink thinking you're going to put it right on your skates.

Pros
  • price
Cons
  • high price
