New Luigino Concept Skates

New Luigino concept

by Matt Kufer (Oct. 16, 2011)

Saw this setup at nationals. It is interesting. It will be very hard to make it strong enough for indoor competition.

The idea, as explained to me at nationals, is to apply force where it belongs.... in the middle of the "blade". It is also to allow for natural bending of the frame that isn't restricted by having two mounting points.

I don't know that I believe any of it, but that was the explanation that I received.

The prototype I saw did have 2 bolts... but only 100mm wheels and the deck height was rather high.

It's not a clap skate. The frame is being fixed with two bolts.
