K2 WOMEN'S ALEXIS 80 BOA INLINE SKATES

Buckle up! K2 Original Softboot, Boa System, and a vibration-damping Tec Composite frame: Only K2 can put all this into a skate for beginners. For the new season, our 80mm fitness models have the premium and reliable K2 upper, which we used last year on our 84mm and 90mm fitness skates. Lighter, more breathable, and more comfortable, beginners can go all-in from the start. Our complete K2 Alexis Series is customized to a narrow forcefoot and narrow heel. Moreover, it has a lower instep that people with narrow feet have always a fine skating session! The Alexis 80 Boa offers beginners more performance and comfort than you would expect from a beginner's model. But with K2, No Problem

WHAT SIZE SKATES SHOULD I BUY?

K2 Skates makes several series of skates, with several models in each Series. Each series and model is intended to meet the performance needs of a specific target skater.

CORRECT SIZE:

Stand with your skates laced and your heel snug in the heel cup. Your toes should just barely feather the end of the toe box. Then bend forward into a skating stance. Your toes should pull back slightly from the toe box. Cramped toes are bad, but so are loose, sloppy skates. Sizing is a preference; however, a snug fit enables a better response from your skates.

WRAP:
You want an even yet snug fit. To achieve this fit, adjust your laces and/or power straps to alleviate pressure and spread support evenly over your entire foot.

FLEXIBILITY VS. SUPPORT:

Both are important but in different places. Forward flex is critical to maintaining the right skating stance: knees bent, with shoulders and head centered over the skates. Lateral stability, on the other hand, is crucial for a powerful, comfortable stroke.
