Blade Mounting and Alignment

At The Boot and Blade, blade mounting isn’t just a service — it’s a craft. Every pair of skates that comes through our workshop is treated with the same care and precision trusted by Olympians, Disney on Ice performers, and local club skaters alike. 

Because when your blades are mounted correctly, everything on the ice feels different: smoother edges, safer landings, and confidence with every stride.

Why it matters

Even the best boots won’t perform if the blades aren’t mounted precisely. Misalignment can cause discomfort, slow down progress, or even increase injury risk. A professional mount ensures your blades are in the right place for your foot anatomy, skating style, and long-term goals.

What we offer

• New Mounts – Professional installation and alignment for new boots and blades.

• Re-Mounting & Adjustments – If your blades don’t feel right, we can reposition or correct them.

• Fine Tuning – Subtle shifts for improved balance, control, and comfort.

Every mount is carried out by a qualified skate tech, using precision tools and techniques refined over years of working with skaters at every level.

Backed by our Love Skate Guarantee

We stand behind every fitting and adjustment. If your skates don’t feel right after a mount, we’ll work with you until they do — because the perfect fit isn’t optional, it’s everything.

Appointments & Pricing

Blade mounting is available by appointment at our Cambridge workshop. Appointments typically take 30–60 minutes, depending on your skates and requirements.
