The Powerslide Swell skates have undergone some significant improvements. Forget everything you know and welcome the re-imagination of the Swell model with the Nite 125 Skates.
3D Adapt Padding
Comfort levels have greatly improved because of a patented 3D Adapt padding. The foot is supported, comfortable, and relaxed due to the integrated air vents, flex cuts, and reinforced lining. Heat moulding is no longer needed as the inner adapts to the shape of the foot almost immediately. The inner is also resistant to breaking down, meaning the boots have longevity like no other previous Swell skate. 3D Adapt Padding is the future for Powerslide.
The Boot
A broader shell presents vastly reduced sizing issues. With an apparent shape change to the toe box, the foot sits comfortably in the skate. An optional footbed is included in the package for additional support if needed (we recommend doing this as the changes to the boot means there is more room to play with inside the skate).
The Frame
There's little to add about Powerslide’s TRINITY X mounting system that's not already known. But, if you missed it, the revolutionary three-point mounting system lowers the centre of gravity, improves power transfer, reduces road vibrations, provides balance and stability and gives more control over wheel edges. Ideal in many scenarios.
The frame length on the 125 Night skates is 255mm in all skate sizes.
The Wheels and Bearings
Undercover RAW wheels use an ultra high rebound urethane. The quality of the wheel provides excellent energy transfer, grip, control and performance. There are not many wheels that can compete.
Finished with Abec 9 bearings for a smooth and fast roll, the skate is topped off nicely for a premium skate with an exceptional ride.
Sizing
With the improvement of fitment, it should be best to buy the Powerslide Swell NITE 125 in your regular shoe size.
