Home > Parabolic figure skating blades

Parabolic figure skating blades were first introduced by HD Sports in order to employ new scientific developments in the creation of figure skating blades, which are mounted on the bottoms of skates.

The middle section of parabolic blades is thinner than that of normal blades, while both ends are typically wider than those of regular blades. This translates into less steel and a lighter blade overall.

Their design is meant to improve skaters' blade stability, footwork, and edges. They are available for both figure skaters (aka ice skaters) and ice dancers.

There are other types of blade modifications, as well, such as side honed figure skating blades and tapered figure skating blades.

Parabolic microphoneA parabolic microphone uses a parabolic reflector to collect and focus sound waves onto a microphone receiver, in much the same way that a parabolic antenna (e. satellite dish) does with radio waves. Typical uses of this microphone, which has unusually fo	Parabolic reflectorA parabolic reflector (also known as a parabolic dish or a parabolic mirror is a reflective device formed in the shape of a paraboloid of revolution. Parabolic reflectors can either collect or distribute energy such as light, sound, or radio waves.

Conversion from Cartesian to parabolic coordinates is effected by means of the following equations: : : : : : If φ 0 then a cross-section is obta	Parabolic troughA parabolic trough is a type of solar thermal collector. It is constructed as a long parabolic mirror with a Dewar tube running its length at the focal point. Sunlight is reflected by the mirror and concentrated on the Dewar tube.
