Nordic XC Trainer Nordic Skates

SHELL
The shell was designed with strength and support in mind. It is made out of a special composite compound that is super stiff thanks to the 25% fiberglass, which was mixed into the material. It features a 165mm long mounting distance which enables the skater to adjust the frame frames to the side in order to find the perfect skating position.

PADDING
This skate comes with a unique 3 layer padding, harder foam on the outside, softer foam on the inside and an additional 3-D latex foam in the ankle area for a perfect ankle and heel look to increase support during every stride. Under the lining we added a soft sponge foam for extra comfort and support. On the outside the padding is kept in shape with a special heat mouldable chemical sheet.

LACING
This model features micro mesh material and high grade PU upper material. Powerslide has used a regular lacing with plastic loops for this skate. The additional 45° powerstrap keeps the heel in place. Superior stitching quality and nice finish in details along with a rear carrying strap round up this great skate.

FRAME
The frame is made out of a two-piece construction, two separate aluminum 3-D stamped sidewalls, connected together with a strong and solid mounting block. The standard mounting of this frame is 165mm, fitting various fitness skates on the market.

TIRES & BEARINGS
The 6 ¼” air tires are made by Kenda – a well known manufacturer for tires. They come with a strong 5-spoke rim. The hole around the valve is covered with rim tape which is well known in bicycle tires. The tires are inflateable up to maximum 6.3 bar / 90 psi.

150mm Super High Rebound PU wheels can be ordered separately. For those skaters who like to skate mainly on asphalted roads and like to have more speed

BRAKE
The Powerslide calf brake offers a lot of possibilities to adjust to the individual’s preferences and skating skills to provide the skater with a secure feeling and optimal braking function. The skater has the possibility to adjust the brakepad in all directions and even the angle. The height adjustment function is perfect to find the preferred personal braking position, with more straight leg or more angled legs. The pad can be easily replaced if worn down. The skate comes with only one brake system only.
