Overview

The True SpeedShift DLC Steel Runners are up to 20% stronger and reduce friction by up to 40% as compared to uncoated stainless steel. Simply put, these DLC runners are the perfect choice for the player who is seeking extended blade longevity and elite-level performance.

What separates these runners from traditional stainless or even polished steel is the high polish, diamond-like carbon coating finish. DLC increases surface strength to guard against nicks, chips, and scratches while also improving edge retention so players can skate longer between sharpenings. This special coating is enhanced by the high polish finish, which not only offers greater corrosion resistance but also improves glide, which means players use less energy to skate longer and faster.

True also designed the SpeedShift DLC Runner with a dual profile, meaning they have a 9' radius on the front and a 10' radius on the back. This radius combination helps to maximize blade contact with the ice in different skating situations, thus improving acceleration, stride power, balance in the corners, and overall maneuverability. 

IW can have your skate blades delivered profiled, sharpened, and game-ready with Elite Blade Performance technology! Choose custom profiles like Double, Triple, Quad, SCS, and Polaris to boost speed, stability, and agility. We offer various sharpening options and an Express Mail-In service. Select your profile and sharpening hollow when adding a blade to your cart.

Sizing Chart

HOW TO FIND YOUR SKATE BLADE SIZE
Take your current hockey skates and identify the three-digit number, which can be found on the heel side of your blade holder or on the blades themselves. Locate your three-digit number in the sizing charts below to find your True SpeedShift Runner size. If for any reason you cannot locate the number, see our How to Size a Hockey Skate Blade and Holder article for a more in-depth approach to skate blade sizing and skate blade compatibility.
