Single radius profiles are designed with one radius for all around performance. They are designed to enhance either Speed, Acceleration, Mobility, or Stability. Single radius profiles can be pitched to the skates preference.
Double radius profiles are designed with two different radii to provide better acceleration with very good stability. Double radius profiles can be pitched to the skaters preference. True skates come stock with either the 9'-10' on the TF models and the 9.5'-10.5' on all skates after the first generation Catalysts.
Notable players that have been known to skate on a double radius template are Austin Matthews (9’-10’).

Triple radius profiles are designed with three different radii's to enhance acceleration, provides quicker turns, and provides proper stability to help escape opponents. Prosharp recommends Zuperior profiles for players who want extra speed. Ideal for wingers that would like quick acceleration with perfect stability. Excellent choice for small area players.
Notable players that have been known to skate on Zuperior profiles are Mitch Marner, Brad Marchand, Anders Lee, and Matthew Barzal.
Zuperior triple radius templates have forward pitch built in by moving the blades pivot point to the rear. The Zuperior 3XS moves the pivot point 12 mm, Zuperior XXS moves the pivot point 15 mm, Zuperior XS moves the pivot point 17 mm, Zuperior S, M, L, and V move the pivot point 20 mm.
Glide surface and Hudson profiles are old school templates with a flat spot. Flat spot and pivot point of these profiles can be adjusted to provide pitch to the skater.
The pitch of profiles can be customized to neutral or the skaters preference.

Quad profiles are designed with four different radii's which are strategically placed on the same blade profile to provide perfect blade contact with the ice in ALL situations. Each section of the blade has a radius that is optimized for its specific use. The front of the blade has a smaller radius to promote quick steps during acceleration. The next section is optimized for mobility. The middle of the blade has a slightly longer radius for speed and glide. The back of the blade has a larger radius for stability.
Prosharp recommends a quad profile for players who need to cover a lot of ice. It is the ideal profile for centers and defense. You will feel balanced on your skates when transitioning from gliding to striding. This profile maximizes full stride length.
Notable players who have been known to skate on a Prosharp Quad profile are Elias Pettersson, Quinn Hughes, and John Taveras.
One of the most popular Quad profiles is the Prosharp Quad 0, also known as Bauer’s Power Profile.
Quad templates have a built in forward pitch by moving the blades pivot point to the rear. Quad 3XS moves the pivot point 12 mm, Quad XXS moves the pivot point 15 mm, Quad XS moves the pivot point 17 mm, and Quad Zero, Quad 0.5, Quad I, and Quad II move the pivot point 20 mm. The pitch of profiles can be customized from neutral to the skaters preference.

The Prosharp ELLIPSE were released during October 2020. The new profiles revolutionize profiling by transferring the shape of an ellipse to the blade. This is a paradigm shift where we're going from radius profiling, which was introduced in the late 80's, to ellipse profiling. The focus is on providing the skater with the most DYNAMIC and SEAMLESS skating experience as possible. Combine maximum POWER with hyperlight AGILITY! The key feature is the seamlessness of the profiles. This gives the skater the feeling that they always have the optimal ice contact for each on-ice action.
Currently only Ellipse profiles are available in senior profiles and junior sizes.
Ellipse profiles have pitch built in by moving the blades pivot point to the rear. Senior profiles (0, 1, and 2) move the pivot point of 20 mm. Ellipse XS moves the pivot point 17 mm. Ellipse XXS moves the pivot point 15 mm. Ellipse 3XS moves the pivot point 12 mm. The pitch of profiles can be customized to neutral or to the skaters preference.
While Prosharp is not releasing the detailed specifications for Ellipse profiles the descriptions below should serve as a guide. In general, the Ellipse Zero shape will be closest to a circle of all the profiles and will have less ice contact than the Ellipse II. The Ellipse Zero will have more agility than the Ellipse II. As a recommendation if you skate on a Quad 0 then you should most likely start out by trying the Ellipse Zero. If you’re currently on a Quad 0, would like to move to the Ellipse and have more stability (ice contact) than try the Ellipse I. However, these are just recommended starting points.

Ellipse Zero - Elliptic value closest to zero (a circle) – also meaning it’s the shortest profile of them all. Currently making it the most agile in the series, while packing the dynamic punch that all Ellipse profiles do. We've taken inspiration from the Quad Zero on this one, making it best suited for skate sizes 7-8 (only a recommendation). (Skate sizes 263-272, 20 mm pitch) Available
Ellipse I - The in-betweener. Best suited for skate sizes 9-10 (only a recommendation) (Skate sizes 280-288, 20 mm pitch) Available
Ellipse II - Elliptic level furthest away from zero. Meaning it’s longer, making it more powerful, but still agile. Best suited for skate sizes 11-12 (only a recommendation) (Skate sizes 296-306, 20 mm pitch)

Many professionals feel that skate profiles should be re-profiled every 15 sharpenings. Bauer/Prosharp recommends having your skates profiled 3 times per year. Once at the start of the season, mid season, and before the playoffs. There is no universal answer to how long a skate profile will last. The results will vary based on usage, method of sharpening, quality of the blades, and other wear and tear.
We recommend you re-profile your blades minimally every year.
We typically recommend either having a new set of the taller steel or buying a set of taller steel to replace the shorter steel made by the skate manufacturers. It is possible to profile the shorter blades but there is potential to reduce the the lifespan of those blades.
All profiles include a skate sharpen.
Skates and/or blades can be dropped off at any Elevate Sporting location, turn around time may vary depending on what location your skates are left at.
