Pennington 8005-AA/S (Falcon Flex) Short Track Blades

Recently rebranded to the Falcon Flex Short Track Blades, the 8005-AA/S model is in Pennington's top bracket for short track blades. As the name indicates, the Falcon Flex maintains flexibility to allow for a smoother feel with relaxed skating, but unlike lower models, the included cups and the tube itself stress tests for durability beyond them. 

Pennington recommends this model for skaters that both appreciate the feel of a slightly more flexible tube similar to intermediate models, but are reaching blistering speeds (mid-8 second lap times) on the ice and need a blade to match.
