Our boots are designed with lightness in mind making them ideal for a novice. The lightness will help the skater feel more at home on the ice.
The unique insole made with fiberglass and nylon allows more power transmission and increase the stability.
It also allows for the thickness of the sole to be reduced thus lowering the centre of gravity and giving the skater even greater control and stability.
The unique heel design adds further stability to the boot. The curve on the heel increases weight distribution, allowing the heel to be in contact with over half the insole giving the skater a sense of oneness with the ice.
Do you want the secret to superior control of your skates? It’s all in the lacing! Lace securely at the instep (bottomost two hooks) and softer around the ankle (top two hooks). The hook has been positioned just below the point of flexion and has an inclination of 30 ° in order to follow that of the foot. In combination, by using 4 hooks it is now easier and faster to lace and unlace your boots since you are now able to tighten and close in more precisely.
Not too fluffy, not too dense; the padding is just right. The soft lining envelops your feet and the memory foam padding ensures a fun and relaxed training session. We have designed our boots with an anatomical shape meaning a painless experience and superior comfort.
The innermost material comes in contact with your feet every day, and should wrap your foot softly and comfortably, while maintaining resilience and breathability. We use a complete honeycomb-like polyester fabric coupled with a cushy padding making the interior of this model particularly enjoyable.
This fabric passes abrasion tests by having a breaking load of 83,000 cycles and a resistance to rubbing even in a level 5 wet environment. The lining manages to dry easily due to its efficient breathability characteristics in addition to the intrinsic features of the material in manufacturing.
All Edea skates are designed around the foot with curves and strength to hold the heel in place, to support the foot and give the best fit and maximum comfort.
Our high-tech soles are made with ultra modern material making them both light and waterproof. Just what skaters need.
Finally something new that is not only pleasing to the eyes, but also engages your sense of touch. Feel the rise and fall of the waves as your fingers perceive our new professional TechnoMicro material. We discuss Technomicro as a composite microfiber created from threads that are so thin that each one is less than one thousandth the thickness of the silk. These threads act like natural leather, but with the advantage of being more resistant, plus they are soft to the touch, and offer lightweight properties. Technomicro is not only water resistant, but is also highly resistant to abrasion and tearing.
The antibacterial lining also makes for better hygiene than old fashioned boots.
All our models use a special double helix screw fixed through predrilled holes to fix the blades. They are designed to hold the blades more firmly and for longer than old methods making skating safer and more fun.
Everything at EDEA is done at our factory in a little village at the foot of the Alps. This means we can control design, quality and production. You buy our boots knowing they’ve been cared for from the drawing board until they are placed in the box to be sent to the shops.
Be ready to stand in the spotlight! Our new 3D-textured material paves the way for the next generation. Keep the same features you love about Edea like durability, memory foam comfort, water repellent, and lightweight properties PLUS the sleek, modern look of the golden sole and white heel of the Piano (a champion favorite)!
Featuring four hooks instead of the traditional three, you will discover just how much quicker you can get to the ice. Lace up, skate, unlace and done! It’s that easy! Just remember to loosen the laces all the way down to the toe to maintain a comfortable width!
The unique EDEA Footbed is torsionally rigid but with just a bit of vertical compression, that creates a lower center of gravity in the Skate, creating a lower displacement which greatly increases stability and control. The Footbed and bottom cover will not absorb moisture and WILL Securely hold the special EDEA screws, used to mount the Ice Blades. For a very detailed Technology White Paper on the differences between EDEA Skates and traditional Leather Skates, please take a little time and read “Why EDEA Skates are so Special“ from the Learning Center of SkatesUS.com.
In most cases the Break-In period is just a few hours, not days, weeks, or Months, but the most important Features are how LIGHT and COMFORTABLE the EDEA Wave is!
The heel pocket firmly holds and locks the heel in place, giving you more control and power, optimally obtained with the correct lacing of the boot. We have made lacing easier with the addition of a fourth hook under the point of flexion. This hook is set at a slightly different angle with the purpose of following the natural line of the foot. Sense a snugger fit at the instep and around your entire foot.
Notice the windows encompassing the hooks. The extra depth around the hook that the windows provide allow the laces to easily wrap around the hook and lock.
The hooks are set so they are sunken in to help avoid possible snags between them. Having the hooks set into the windows allows the boot to be much more adherent to the foot in order to provide a more secure fit.
The embedded hooks are made of hardened and forged carbon steel, and are therefore extremely robust and resistant.
Closed and locked in. Feel the difference.
SkatesUS.com is providing the opportunity to have a completed EDEA Skate Outfit including the top Ice Blades appropriately used at this level. All of these Custom High Level EDEA Skate Outfits will take about one week, as not all of the Blades are kept in stock. It is highly recommended to use this time make sure that the fit of the EDEA Skate is proper prior to any Mounting of the Blade or “Shaping” of the Boot.
When the EDEA Skate Outfit is paid for, SkatesUS.com will ship the EDEA Skates to verify the correct size and then we will cover the cost of the return shipping after trying on the EDEA Skates prior to mounting the Blades and complete the very high level, high performance EDEA Skate Outfit. For more details on this service see the SkatesUS.com Boot Sizing Policy (which is only valid in the United States). The MOTIVO Skate Packages will be completely Mounted for ease of getting started. Once the Blade is Mounted or the Boot is “Shaped,” the Skates are no longer considered New and CANNOT be Returned. All International orders are final, once paid for and shipped.
The EDEA Skate Complete Outfit is only returnable if the items are in new, unused condition, meaning they have not been shaped or mounted prior to return. We highly recommend confirming correct size before ordering the items to be mounted.
SkatesUS.com will help with any Custom Shaping Services, as needed. There may be labor charges for the Custom Shaping Services. Some of our Dealers are also trained in the Shaping process and can do an excellent job locally.
Remember with EDEA Skates, the Carbon Fibre type material is not like leather and will not just change shape on its own. If something pressures, it will always pressure, until it is adjusted and then once the Skate is adjusted, it will not pressure and will stay that way unless it is changed again. When we are “Shaping” the Skate, we are “Shaping” the shell or structure of the Skate. Once it hardens into the new shape, it will stay that way until changed again.
The best way for us to work on the Skates, is of course to have the Skater’s feet to put into the Skates and find out where the pressure points are.
If that is not possible, please trace the foot on a piece of paper and mail (yes, snail mail) or put good measurements on the drawings in mm or inches. When a drawing is scanned or faxed, it is scaled and makes a good reference, but is not accurate for measurements. The second part of this is to take some digital pictures of the feet and E-Mail them to OrderDesk@SkatesUS.com and to Info@SkatesUS.com. Pictures will help us to visualize the issues, but the drawings with measurements are essential. Please do not put your feet in the Boots and then heat them. This process will be too hot for your feet.
SkatesUS.com is also providing (if selected) the custom Mounting Services to complete your very high level, high performance EDEA Skate Outfit. We will complete a Temporary Mount by properly installing the Screws in the Blade Slots, based on the normal Center of Balance.
Once you have received your Skates and work with your Coach to ensure proper positiong of the Blade for your body and build. Adjustments can be made by slightly loosening the screws and sliding the Blade on the slots, as needed. Once the Blade positioning is completed and tightened, it is time to install ALL of the remaining Flat Head (CounterSunk) Special EDEA Screws. These screws are installed by using 2.0mm (5/64″) Drill Bit for the toe and 2.5mm (3/32”) drill bit for the heel. By using the Drill Bit Extender, the additional screws can be installed without removing the Blade or danger of hitting the drill chuck on the Blade.
The EDEA Skates Nylon Fibreglass Composite FootBed will hold the Special EDEA flat tipped, high-low thread Screws with several times the foot-pound torque than that of a standard sheet metal screw into a leather and cork sole of a traditional leather boot. The EDEA Skate does not require any additional water-proofing and the rubber coated FootBed of the EDEA Skates will not get water logged and allow the screws to loosen and fall out. EDEA Skates are much safer due to these innovations.
The easy steps to complete the mount are:
1. Remove the InnerSole.
2. Drill the center pilot hole in the Center of each of the Countersink screw locations.
3. In the Sole of the Skate Drill ALL the way through the Sole using the 2.0mm drill bit.
4. In the Heel of the Skate Drill to the Void in the Heel using the 2.5mm drill bit.
5. Install the appropriate Special EDEA Countersink screw into the holes with a #2 Phillips Screw Driver.
6. With a straight blade Screw Driver or chisel, on the inside FootBed of the Skate, remove the drill trails (shavings).
7. Re-Install the InnerSole.
8. Put the Skates back on.
9. Enjoy Skating in EDEA Skates!!!
