HISTORY

Bont Skates was founded in Sydney in 1975 when Inze Bont, a recreational short
track ice speed skater decided to fiberglass the back of his leather speed
skates to gain more support. Bont quickly became the world's largest producer of
ice speed skates and then branched out into inline speed skates, quad speed
skates, roller derby skates, and long track speed skates. Bont was the first
footwear manufacturer to use exotic material like fiberglass in 1974, Kevlar in
1986 and Carbon Fiber in 1989, and the first to use heat moldable resins and
thermoplastics. 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.




SKATE TECHNOLOGY

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 1974, Kevlar in 1986 and Carbon
Fiber in 1989, 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.


CARBON FIBER

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.




SKATE FOAM PADDING

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.


SKATE RESIN DEVELOPMENT

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. Our resin becomes soft
at just 60°C (140°F) which is the lowest in the industry. 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. The temperature of the air and the amount of humidity are critical in
determining the amount of hardener that needs to be added to the skate's resin.
That is why we have a computer that mixes the skate's resin and hardener
together and dispenses the resin after measuring the air temperature and
humidity. Most manufacturers use a process known in the industry as pre-preg.
This is where the resin is "pre-impregnated" into the carbon fiber. In virtually
all applications, the resin is chosen by the carbon fiber manufacturer, not by
the skate manufacturer. The inline skate manufacturer has no way of altering the
resin to meet the heat moldability requirements of modern skates and that is why
they require very high temperatures to make the skates slightly heat moldable.




ONE PIECE SKATE CONSTRUCTION

Bont Skate's method of producing our high-end inline skates and inline speed
skates a method we call One-Piece Construction. This process is far more
skill-intensive, time-consuming and thus resulting in far greater costs than the
current mainstream inline speed skate construction method, but one that allows
the Bont range of inline skates to lead the market in performance. A two-piece
boot is made when the base is pre-made and then the liner and outer skin are
glued onto the base. Much of the stitching on a two-piece inline skate boot is
purely cosmetic. A two-piece inline skate boot can have nicer looking stitching
because the stitching is done before the boot is made and it serves no purpose.
Bont high end and mid-range inline skate boots are all made using the one-piece
construction as well as some of the entry-level skates. Using the one-piece
construction method, the outer skin of the inline skate boot is stitched to the
anti-stretch material that has been bonded into the carbon. This ensures your
inline skates or inline speed skates do not stretch over time. This process was
pioneered in the production of Bont custom speed skates.


CUSTOM SKATES

Bont has produced more custom inline speed skates than all other skate
manufacturers combined. Bont is famous for producing custom inline speed skates,
custom short track speed skates, custom long track speed skates, custom quad
speed skates, custom roller skates, and custom roller derby skates. Our
production time is between 10-12 weeks to produce skates made around a mold of
your feet. We can accept molds made by plaster, laser scan, or our original
molding socks with carbon molding box.




INLINE, QUAD AND ROLLER DERBY WHEELS

Bont Skates in partnership with the world's best wheel manufacturers such as MPC
develops the best inline quad and roller derby wheels in the world. Our wheels
are famous for pushing the boundaries of technology especially with the use of
aluminum hubs. Wheels such as the Royal assassin roller skate wheel, the Red
Magic Hard Core 125mm wheel and the Avenger 110mm are the best wheels in their
respective fields. Our high-end inline speed skate wheels use a dual durometer
pour.


INLINE SPEED SKATING FRAMES

Bont Skates uses some of the most exotic materials such as carbon fiber and 7050
aerospace-grade aluminum to produce our inline speed skating frames. All inline
racing frames are first tested by the most advanced computer-aided frame stress
testing on the market before being tested in the real world by our professional
inline speed skating team.




THE BEST SKATE BEARINGS

We insist on only producing the best inline and roller skate bearings in the
world. We partner with the best bearing producers such as Jesa of Switzerland to
produce our inline skate bearings. We go the extra mile using premium hardened
steel, we double polish the inner race and we use extremely precise balls. The
inline skate bearings come with light racing oil rather than grease. We produce
ceramic bearings, 608, 167, 688, abec 7 and abec 5 inline skate bearings. These
bearings make a perfect replacement skate bearing for your inline skates.


SKATE ACCESSORIES

We have a wide range of inline skate and inline speed skate accessories
including bearing press pullers, 608 and 688 bearing cleaner, bags and
backpacks, wheel bags, skate innersoles, water bottles, ezeefit, laces, skate
Allen key, toe guard protector, inline skate helmet, skate buckle kit,
replacement buckle kit, and skate mounting bolts.




SKATE APPAREL

Our roller derby, quad, short track, long track and inline skate apparel
consists of: inline racing suits, warmup jackets, compression tights, caps, hats
and t-shirts.
