Neues Material von Paul Marchese

// September 4th, 2009 // Material

Auf pureskatingnews.com ist ein Bericht über neue Schienen mit Gestellt von Marchese zu lesen. Diese sind wohl in Zusammenarbeit mit CadoMotus endstanden. Bin gespannt ob sie sich durchsetzten werden. Einem Test wäre ich nicht abgeneigt.

Unveiling the Marchese RECORD LT blade

Marchese Racing lifts the lid on its longtrack project with the RECORD LT blade…

CadoMotus & Marchese together with design engineer Kees Douma have been working hard developing blades for the approaching Olympic year, and today marks the release of the new blade… together with the ONE ST boot and ZERO ST blade, the RECORD LT blade is the result of more than 2 years collaboration on the Marchese Racing project.

Robot laser welding ensures a lifetime blade-to-runner fixation

Built on a Reynolds 953 Mar-Aging ultra strong steel tube, unmistakable by its ‘Open Tube’ finish

The blade, unmistakable by its unique ‘Open Tube’ finish, features:

• Reynolds 953 ultrastrong Mar-Aging steel tubing, maintaining the bend longer
• High-precision robot laser welding that ensures a lifetime blade-to-runner fixation
• PM-grade bimetal runner for the best glide properties and sharpest blade possible
• 7075-grade aluminium clap system fitted with 688 cartridge bearings: lightweight, strong and durable
• Oversized linear springs to increase performance lifetime

The Reynolds 953 ultra-strong tubing featured on RECORD LT blades maintains bend for longer, and combines with the PM-grade bimetal runner to create a blade up to 3x stronger than Viking or Maple, with the same flex range.

The concept, invented by Kees Douma, has been developed into the RECORD LT blade as part of the Marchese Racing project – with research & development undertaken by Douma, CadoMotus Skating, and Paul Marchese.

Advanced simplicity. Innovative design, the highest quality materials and advanced manufacturing techniques – the RECORD LT blade is available this winter to Olympic athletes, and will be in stores September 2010.
