Product details
If we were to describe what Powerslide Stargaze are in as short as possible manner, we would just say that they are a simplified version of hugely popular Phuzion Universe line of skates. They are lightweight, durable skates with great price to quality ratio and have been designed to serve as a good introduction in to the world of inline skating. If you associate kids’ skates with flexible softboots that barely roll, know that Stargaze are the exact opposite of that.
Hard shell with no side flex
Hard shell concept - serves not only to offer superior protection for the foot but first and foremost, providing a great support for the ankle. These skates do not bend in cuff area to the sides and thanks to that, children can learn how to skate with proper technique, without putting unwanted strain on their bone structure.
- Proper angle between wheels and ground - makes their wear more even and slower.
- The shell is adjustable – there are three skate size ranges to choose from, each coming with four adjustment options, meaning that boot can „grow” with your children’s feet.
Anatomically shaped liners
Inner boot is made out of anatomically shaped EVA foams contributing to high level of comfort. Liner itself is adjustable along with the shell and riveted to it at the back to prevent any heel lift.
Flex cuts in the shell - to make it more efficient) and equipped with a velcro strap to secure heel in place. The boot is laced and has top plastic buckle is used to close the cuff above the ankle.
Unibody design of Powerslide Stargaze inline skates
Composite frames are popular solution in skates for children and Stargaze use these too. Powerslide has opted for unibody solution, meaning that frame and bottom of the shell is a single part. This makes skates noticeably lighter as well as giving easier control and better roll thanks to low centre of gravity.
Furthermore, the frame length is different for each of three size ranges, so you can be sure that balance between stability and agility of the skate is correct. Children won’t have problems with turning due to frame being too long, or with front to back stability because of too short one, in relation to foot size.
Classic 4x wheel setup
The skate comes with a classic four wheeled setup, which is a perfect choice for young beginners. The four wheeled skates may not be as fast and lightweight as three wheeled equivalents, but have lower centre of gravity and are more stable, making them easier to control.
- Four wheels contribute to better grip, too - The smallest boot, intended for youngest users, comes with 70 mm wheels to safely introduce kids in to skating. Two larger size ranges have 72 mm and 76 mm wheels respectively, allowing for higher skating speeds. No matter the wheel size, their hardness is 85A, providing a smooth and fast roll.
- The skate comes with brake attached – it can be taken off.
Powerslide Stargaze inline skates are well-made and come highly recommended, especially given their attractive price point. Kids will have plenty of fun on these and most importantly – you can be sure about their safety!
About manufacturer
Powerslide is one of industry’s leaders even though it is relatively young company – it has been founded in year 1994. The Germany based brand has entered the market at height of inline skating’s popularity, at the time when market was flooded with low quality skates which could be described as toys rather than sport equipment. From the very beginning, Powerslide had one goal: to break the perception of inline skating being a leisure activity for kids and to promote it as a sport for everyone. That’s not a surprise considering that company’s owner, Matthias Knoll, is a skater himself. As speedskating contender, he breathes this sport and his love for it has been fuelling Powerslide for over 25 years.
If we were to describe Powerslide in three words, these would be: quality, variety and innovation. From the very beginning of company’s existence, Germans have challenged industry’s giants and competed with them in field of quality. Nowadays they are in lead of the pack when it comes to technology: heatmoldable liners and boots, compressed carbon shells, revolutionary Trinity mounting – these things are relatively fresh and competition is yet to respond. Looking back, Powerslide was the first company to introduce carbon freestyle skate with integrated padding. They were the first company to introduce carbon based aggressive skate. 125mm wheels were introduced to speedskating thanks to them. The introduction of Kizer Advance frame and then Level 2 made a big impact and lead to rapid evolution of aggressive flat frames. Germans were the first company to make triskates a significant part of their offering, starting a new trend. Nowadays, Powerslide are the only company that makes real off-road skates (not to be confused with off-road rollerskis).
This pursuit of change and improvement is unique – no other company in this industry is having a boss willing to take even the craziest of ideas and concepts to production stage. Powerslide also have, without a shadow of doubt, the richest catalogue of products among all skating companies; covering even the most niche equipment made for freestyle slalom, downhill and inline alpine. They have full range of accessories and parts: helmets, protection pads, wheels, bearings, frames and so on. The company is also making rollerskates, providing recreational, roller derby and skatepark models and equipment. It can be safely said that if Powerslide is not making something skating related, chances of other companies having it in their offer are slim to none.
Powerslide have an impressive brand portfolio: MyFit liners, Wicked bearings, Reign hockey skates, USD aggressive skates, Kizer frames, Undercover wheels, Matter wheels, Gawds boots, wheels and softgoods, Prime wheels, Juice rollerskates wheels, Chaya rollerskates, Ennui protection and many others.
What makes Powerslide special are company’s people and supporters who create a community around it. Germans support and cooperate with skaters all around the globe. International Powerslide Team is composed of names every inline skating fan should be familiar with and believe us - there are far too many to list them here.
