Bont was also the first company to use adjustable ice blades and remains the world's largest producer of speed skates and custom speed skates. Bont Skates is famous for pioneering every major boot advancement adopted by other skate manufacturers in the industry today. Bont was the first footwear manufacturer to use materials like fiberglass in , Kevlar in and Carbon Fiber in , and the first to use heat moldable resins and thermoplastics.
Bont Skates invented heat moldable boots and was the first ice skate company to make skates where the blade and frame could be adjusted on the boot. Bont was the first skate company to use lace covers, velcro, and aluminum strengtheners in the boots. We push the limits of technology in ice speed skates, short track skates, roller skates, inline speed skates, and roller derby skates to help you perform at your best. We source our carbon exclusively from the world's 1 carbon manufacturer, Toray of Japan.
The carbon base of Bont inline skate boots is made by hand by sandwiching different types of carbon. The fibers are hand laid in the matrix according to the strain they will have to bear. The carbon is embedded with epoxy thermosetting resin. Unlike most brands of inline skates, Bont exclusively uses closed cell memory foam in our skate production.
Most brands of inline skates use open-cell foam which is cheaper and absorbs water. Closed-cell foam does not absorb your sweat or water that you may skate through. This keeps your inline skates free of moisture. Formulating a resin for inline skates and inline speed skates that is super stiff yet becomes moldable at low temperatures and has a fast cure time is critical for our unique requirement which is why we are probably the only inline skate manufacturer who develops our own resins in-house.
Once you heat the resin, mold the boot, and let it set, it is permanently set without the need to remold the skate.
You can also reheat the skate's resin as many times as you like. All of those companies are supported each time a Flying Turtle or Roller Racer is made.
