Citation book · season max speed
Booked & processed
One ticket per skater, written for his single fastest moment of the season. The plate is his sweater number. Edge publishes ten names per board, so that's what gets booked.
Repeat offenders · bursts over 22 mph
Prior record
Top speed is one moment. These are the skaters who break 22 mph again and again. Every mark is one burst over the line this season.
How the camera works
The fine print
Top speed
Edge's max skating speed: the fastest a skater has been tracked at any point this season. The ticket shows where and when it happened, when Edge reports it.
Bursts
A burst is a stretch where a skater gets over a speed threshold. The tally counts bursts over 22 mph; the side note counts the 20 to 22 mph ones.
Ten per board
Edge only publishes top-10 boards, so there's no full league list. Forwards and defense are separate boards, which is why some names show up twice.
