When I got my skates the fitter said I had pronation so positioned the blade to the very inside of the sole (to the point where they actually protrude past the edge of the sole), and said that would fix the problem. I've always had problems getting onto the outside edge in the backspin so my coach suggested moving the blades towards the inside of the sole but I explained that this had already been done.
So, I'm interested to know if positioning the blade at the inside edge does actually help pronation, and what can be done to help get onto the outside edge in a backspin.
