Powerslide Tau Inline Skates

Powerslide Tau were created to be a pinnacle of technological progress in freestyle slalom skates. After a huge success of Hardcore Evo skates, the German brand has set itself a goal to create a boot worthy of their new ground-breaking advancement – the Trinity frame mounting system.

Tau has been given the absolute best tech available to Powerslide. These are first freestyle skates to use compressed carbon shell, which makes them lighter and more durable than traditional carbon-based boots. Furthermore, these are first skates made with this technology (as speedskating saw limited use of compressed carbon earlier) which can be heat-moulded. The inner padding is made out of new generation SPC foams coming in different densities and adapts to the shape of the foot naturally – however, you can still accelerate this process by “baking” the skates in the oven.

Even though Tau were created with freestyle slalom in mind, just like their older sibling, Hardcore Evo, boots are versatile enough to be used in many different skating styles. There’s a boot only version available and with so many Trinity compatible frames to choose from, your imagination can run wild. It is a perfect boot to pair with urban skating frames and wizard/flowskating style ones; put a speedskating frame underneath and what you get is a great long-distance skate. Even off-road frames are not out of the equation. Tau are truly “next-gens” among freestyle skates.
