Sparx Hockey today unveiled its newest product - the Sparx Sharpener 3 and Sparx Sharpener 3 Pro. This evolution of the Sparx Sharpener creates the first-ever integrated skate sharpening experience.
The Sparx Sharpener 3 and Sparx Sharpener 3 Pro feature the revolutionary Sparx BEAM, which stands for Blade Edge Accuracy Measurement device. This laser alignment and edge measurement tool measures skate blade edges to 1/10,000th of an inch - which equates to slicing the thickness of a piece of paper 40 times!
Combined with the all new Sparx Hockey App, the Sparx Sharpener 3 and Sparx Sharpener 3 Pro usher in a whole new paradigm in skate Sharpening.
To learn more about this exciting advancement in sharpening technology, check out the below video from Sparx Hockey CEO and Founder Russ Layton.
I noticed the BEAM can be purchased separately from the unit. How does the BEAM communicate with the Sparx 3?
Aside from the unit’s ability to connect with the app, the sharpener itself appears to remain consistent. Is the BEAM the primary upgrade, or does it also enhance functionality on the Sparx 3?
Could you clarify the distinctions between the Sparx 3 and Sparx 2? I understand the Sparx 3 has an integrated air filter, Bluetooth, and an LCD display. Are there other notable features? I’m weighing the decision to upgrade or simply acquire the BEAM.
Love my second Gen sparx but this new product looks To be cutting edge no pun intended! Thanks for always keeping us sharp !
