I found this guy three years ago, my daughter's goalie skates have a combo radius and a pitch and she loves it, she tried it three years ago. Come to find out I knew a lot of people that was using him, I just never asked and I guess some like to keep it to themselves. I went to a Flat bottom V, and I am old school played in late 80's and all throughout the 90s into early 00s, so all this stuff was new to me 7 years ago when I when I got back into playing regularly, didn't believe the stuff made a difference. Wow it did

Highly recommend the flat bottom V with a 5/8ths cut if you are an old school
When no on your edges it is like butter knives no resistance can glide across the ice with two strides, but when you go to turn nice and sharp

Yes he knows his stuff big time, he is old school and a little standoffish but trust me, trust him
You should try getting your blades done with a radius - it takes a bit to get used to BUT the amount of increased maneuverability is amazing.
