3.  Next hold the Sweet Stick on a slight angle, and place the "V" of the ceramic on the toe of the blade and "lightly drag" the Sweet Stick down the length of the blade from toe to heel.

  1. That's it! one (maybe two) strokes on each skate should do it.

Remember, you don't need a lot of pressure on the Sweet Stick, the ceramic does all the work. After a few try's you'll have it dialed in and know exactly how much pressure you need to get back that bite.

Need an little extra bite in the heel?
Take a second pass from the bottom 2/3 of the blade back to the heel.
