John Wilson Gold Seal Blade
The Gold Seal is John Wilson's spinning blade, with an aggressive spin rocker and high stanchions on an 8 ft rocker. John Wilson recommends it for skaters who want faster spins, and its partner in the performance and elite tiers of our quiz is the Pattern 99. The carbon Gold Seal Revolution is the lighter version, in sizes 8 to 11 inches.
