Why Choose Bont Park Roller Skates?

Bont Park Roller Skates are not your ordinary skates. They're specially crafted to withstand the challenges of park skating and provide you with an unmatched experience. Here's why they stand out:

1. Durability and Support

Bont Park Skates are built tough. Their sturdy construction and reinforced materials ensure they can handle the wear and tear of park skating. The fiberglass base make them super lightweight, while the 23mm in-built heel amplifies power transfer compared to skates with taller heels. With excellent ankle support, you'll feel more confident as you navigate ramps and perform tricks. 

2. Precision Fit

A proper fit is crucial for optimal performance. Bont Skates offer a precise fit that minimizes any discomfort or slipping, giving you better control over your movements. The boot can be heat-molded in less than 10 minutes, allowing you to achieve a personalized fit if necessary. This means you can focus on perfecting your skills without worrying about your skates.  

3. High-Quality Wheels and Bearings

Bont offers wheels tailored for park skating. Pick the Flow Park 89a for beginners or go for the Flow Street 99a or Full Flight 101a for more speed. The latter two are better for advanced skaters due to their hardness. All wheels feature unique edge designs for smooth sliding and grinding, reducing wheel bite. Combined with Bont's high-quality bearings, they ensure a smooth ride.

4. Smooth Slide Blocks

If you're a fan of stalling and sliding, consider adding slide blocks to your Bont package. These blocks fill the gap between your wheels, enabling easy stalls and slides on coping, ledges, and rails. They also safeguard your plate, prolonging your skate's lifespan as you conquer the skatepark.

5. Grind Trucks

To enhance your skate park tricks, consider adding grind trucks to your Bont package. Simple to install without any modifications to your Bont plate required, these trucks let you start grinding on coping, ledges, and rails like a pro.

Tips and Tricks for Park Skating Mastery

Now that you have your Bont Park Roller Skates ready, let's dive into some tips to help you master park skating:
