How to heat mold carbon freeskates - HC Evo - Speaking Specs
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 сер 2018
- In this video Powerslide's infamous Jürgen Pfitzner and his side kick Sam Crofts try and explain to you what heat molding is, how it works and most importantly how it is done correctly. Heat molding is a technique, which uses higher temperatures to alter the shape of the carbon shell, so pressure points can be easily corrected. Due to the durability of the carbon fiber, the process is repeatable and won't interfere with the integrity of the molecular structure of the material. As soon as you have unscrewed your wheels, you can put them inside the oven for about 20-30 min. with a temperature of around 80-90°C. Make sure to check in on your skates from time to time, just to make sure that the heat molding process goes as planned. Take your skates out with caution, as the metal parts of your skates will be quite hot and then lace them up as tight as humanly possible and mantain a slightly bend over position as the skates cool down. If there are any areas that you still have problems with after your first heat molding process, you can try to stick a piece of fabric or a tissue into the area of your sock/feet when putting them on after your second or third repetition.

...just heat-moulded my new Powerslide HC Evos. I usually take a size EU 42 in a wide fitting and they felt really narrow at first, so I heated at 100ºC for 25 minutes, keeping a very beady eye on things all the way. I also left the axle bolts in the frame during the process. Have to say, the difference in fit before and after is quite stark. Totally different boot - the word "bespoke" keeps springing to mind. Full marks, Powerslide, you really nailed this one. 🎯⚡️☄️💥🔥
I can recommend putting the second skate in 5 minutes later or so, so you have time to tighten the first one without the second one getting too hot.
Good shout
I have 3 mm wider in size 37. This video that convincing me to buy evo in the end. Can't wait to try it .
we hope you'll enjoy your molded hc evos a lot!
I'll try it soon. Got really wide feets so finding the perfect boot is hard for me. Hope heat molding will help!
Did it help? My feet are a bit wide for my skates
Hi all at Powerslide! The heatmolding temperature you mention in this video (80-90 C°) for this specific 2018/2019 model boot is very different to the temperature you mention on your website, which states a temperature of 110 C°. Now which is correct? Are you deliberately staying on the safe side in this video? I brought up the nerve to try both temperatures. 20 minutes at 90 degrees didn’t seem to do very much for me (my problem area = ankle bones) and 15 minutes at 110 degrees in a preheated electric oven seemed to work much better, and without problems. No melting, no deformations, no smoke. 😆 Although next time I would probably remove the buckle straps as I’ve recently read somewhere that they could get a bit too soft and strip easier when you really tighten the ratchet buckles. I guess just lacing them very tight would work good enough. Is this something you would recommend also or do you think it’s not necessary at all? Would you be so kind to clear this all up? 🙂
higher temperatures will fasten the heating process of course, but chances for damage ar higher. if you want to go safe, stick to 80-90°C and keep them in a bit longer until you feel the carbon boot becoming soft/flexible. yes, tightening your laces can also work fine.
The EVOS 2 fit me quite well out of the box. If I lace them very tight, my toes get numb after about an hour. Will it be better without heat molding or is there no break-in phase without heat molding with the EVOS?
should i heatmold my tau boots with or without the insoles that came with the boots? should i skate my tau's with or without the insole?
How long does it take before the boot is cold and stiff so I can take my foot out of the boot and not ruining the molding?
I love this skates, but I love even more your pants!! :D
Amunt Valencia!!!
hi i bought the powerslide evo pro 90, in size 39 with 6mm longer than my foot, the number 38 felt too tight. however the skates are too wide, and the toes move too freely. is this big difference in width between 38 and 39 normal? if the thermoform will adhere better to the foot or not tighten more than it currently is? thank you very much, I hope to receive an answer
Can i do this with powerslide zoom 80 pro ?
Hello I'm about to heatmold my evos 2.0 but I have a flat feet so I'm using yellow superfeet insoles in them for arch support. I want to ask if I should keep them in my skates for my health sake or if heatmolding does cure this problem by molding base insoles of the skates in some weird way that it will support my arches
that is almost an orthopedic / doctor question. for heat molding, take the insoles out. afterwards if you have good results with your insole, keep skating with it.
Seems odd to take the insoles out for heat molding, as your foot will fill the space quite differently without the insoles. What did you end up doing, and how did it work out?
@@sirclimbs-a-lot9020the insoles are not heat moldable.
can I heat mold skates without a frame? my oven is too small I can’t fit the skates in with the frame on...
it's possible but i wouldn't recommand it because it's a little risk to twist the shoes and its not easy to remount the frame direct after when its warm...better try to find a friend to help who have a a bigger oven.
I've tried this many times with the Tau boot, and the carbon never gets soft, only the padding... Is the boot truly heat moldable or only the padding with the Tau?
My Tau skate is awesome but crushes my ankle bone. Can I heat mold with this technique to remove the pressure point?
unfortunately the tau skates are not heat moldable for now. we would recommend trying different (or no) insoles, arch support inlays, changing your frame position or the pitch & stride control for a different frame angle.
what do you mean? Tau skates are not heat moldable? I just bought a pair, and tried heat molding many time. it didn't change much. Can I have answer about it? @@PowerslideInlineskates
hello powerslide. when heat molding the boots do we keep the frame and buckle bolts tight or loosen it a bit?
you can keep it tight .it should not be a problem.
Hi guys. I just bought the amazing pair of Powerslide evo pro trinity 2019. I have issues with my feet so I need them to mold to my shape. I will go and skate today but I want to mold them first. My question is what setting shall the oven be put on? Air? Silly question 🙈 I’m so excited!
there is no such thing as a stupid question. setting "air circulation" should be good to go.
Hi! I ordered the Evo skate, and right out of the box they seem very comfortable. Lenght and front area seems to be right size, but lower heel section could be a little more tight. I haven't heat molded yet. Can I pinch the heel while the carbon is cooling down from heating to make it more narrow?
yes you can do this it's the point to get more support.
Good idea to wear gloves when putting them back on out of the oven?
I want these boots, but dont find them in Belgium. (size 42 eu).
They look very awsome and must be a joy to have on your feet.
Combined with a good frame and decent 125 mm wheels, I would feel like a king of the road 🙂
What frame do you suggest for 125 mm city and distance skating?
hard to have a frame doing city and distance skating. Maybe a 12.5 3X125 elite can be good but a bit long for the city then.
Hi team! I just picked up a pair of HC evo trinity and they were very comfortable out of the box, but after ~15 minutes, I felt pressure points on the outer part of my left pinky toe and on the inside of my ankle bone.
Will heat molding help widen the boot and relieve these two pressure points and would you recommend using a tissue to facilitate the widening? I called inline warehouse and the person on the phone advised that it'll make the boot "smaller" (their words), so it won't help with my ankle bone pressure point.
Thank you in advance! I would really love to make these skates work
heat molding will not make your skates smaller. yes, you can add a tissue on the area where you feel pressure to get an extra few mm's of space where it is needed. try it, will feel way better afterwards.
hi Powerslide, would i heat them to 80 degrees Celsius in a fan oven? also do i heat up the oven before i put the skates in, or do i put them in and then heat it up
temperatur wise, please follow the recommended temperatures above. pre-heating will fasten up this process, but either way will work.
okay cool thanks for quick reply
Can I do this with a powerslideImperial 80?
Hey guys, i offered a pair of those boots and mounted 125mm wheels with a 255mmbase. There is a 2mm gap between the front wheel and the left boot sole....so everythings fine...but on the right boot there are just 0.5mm - none space at all and when i step in I immidiatly start to break...the shop assistant told me that its normal and could happen due to the fact that this is a handmade boot. they told me i could use some spacers to get rid of this problem...but for the money i dont want to use any spacers cuz i want to be as low to the ground as possible...so my question: Is it doable to heat mold the nose of the boot a lil bit up so i can produce the 2mm gap on my own? Or is the boot too stiff for that? Thx in advance guys or for anyone who could answer that :)
thanks for the question. if you own a pair of high quality carbon boots, yes it is possible to mold them in every carbon fiber part of the shell.
Hi Team, I've bunion problem on my right foot. Can this heat moldable feature solve this problem? How far this Carbon Fiber can stretch after heat mold?
Hi, i answer you by email.
Pascal
@@PowerslideInlineskatesHey Pascal…I have the same issue. Any chance I can get the solution as well?
I just bought a 2017 HC Evo 2.0 in size 38 which is 243 mm in length. My feet are 238 mm and 240 mm long with thin socks but I find that my front area of my feet get numb after approx 30 min of wearing. Are the skates too small? Can I heat mold them to fit the width of my feet? Or should I buy Next Core size 38-39 instead?
normally you have the right size. May be better to try one size bigger then in your case
Thanks for your reply. I heat molded them and they seem to fit now. I have tried them at home but not outside skating because of the rainy weather everyday. I hope they will fit.
My feet is short and particularly wide, it measures only 25 cm long and whopping 10cm width, I got a swell firefly for fitness skating in size 40, it is comfortable and fit very well, I want to learn free style skating, so I also bought a pair of size 40 evo pro trinity, but it is a pain to put my feet into, is this method able to widen the front part of the evo pro enough so my feet is not pain to wear those skates
My feet are actually almost the exact same size as yours (25cm length and between 95mm and 100mm width) and I also bought size 40 Evos and have been experiencing a really tight fit in the toe area like you. My feet actually go numb after some time skating and I have to take a break. I plan to heat mold them today, I will let you know if it helps since we are so similar in size
Hey so I've now heat molded my Evo skates twice and it's gotten a lot better. I still have a pain point on my ankle, but after the heat molding and more break-in, my feet hardly go numb now (and I'd expect that to continue to get better with more break-in). Hope this helps
I got some swell skates and just one foot is too small, can this be fixed with heat molding?
depending on how much your "too small" is, yes, heat molding can help to create a little bit of extra space.
Hi! how many time need the kaze tundra suv to molding???
the kaze suv uses the same shell as swell and v. skates, so this tutorial explains perfectly how to heta mold your skates correctly: ua-cam.com/video/GhlyEzfevew/v-deo.html
Hi, Is this possible with the NEXT 100? With all the boot?
no, it is not! with your NEXT skates, you can heat mold your myfit lienrs, but not the plastic shell.
Hello! HC EVO 2019 heat moldable at 110 C. How long put them in oven at 110 C?
the time depends on your oven, usually its perfect when you notice that the carbon boot gets flexible. this can take 15 minutes, but sometimes also up to 30 minutes.
@@PowerslideInlineskates thank you!
Hi good video!
Will it be the same process for the HC Evo 2.0???
Will it release the pressure point on the ball of my feet???
thanks for the feedback. yes, the heat molding procedure is the same for the hc evo 2.0 skates and we hope your fit will increase in comfort.
@@PowerslideInlineskates Hi thanks for the reply!
Is this usual to have ball feet pain (too much pressure) with this skates being new? Do you think than heat molding them will help?Will breaking them in take away this pressure? My feet are 26.7 cm long (with socks) but they are wide, I just bought 42 size last week which is 27.2cm, the ball of my feet is the only area where i feel pressure... Is this the correct size to me?
@@PuritART the size seems correct. it is almost impossible to give precise fitting information for all types of feet, as all feet are different and individually shaped. heat molding can widen the areas where there are pressure points and speed up the break-in-process.
@@PowerslideInlineskates Ok! I will try to heath mold them... Thank you so much!
@@PuritART that might be a tough one. we recommend heat molding with regualr (electric) ovens.
Can you heatmold rollerblade maxxum edge 90?
Tom Guthschmidt no, rollerblade is another company that don‘t provide heat molding for any of their products, please do not try it
Can I do this with Powerslide One Zoom 80 ?
no. the zoom skates are non-carbon fiber skates, so the boot / hard shell can NOT be heat molded.
I tried this and it works good. But one tip is. Heat mold it and wear them to let them fit. Wait a little bit until they adapt to your feet. Take them out when they still warm. Strap the laces and buckles and then put them in the refrigerator. I feel the fit is even better then.
Is it the same procedure with Tau 2019?
Tooooop
Nice and useful video. I am just a bit confused about the girlfriend & oven part. Do I need a girlfriend if I want to buy these skates or am I fine with a boyfriend & oven?
shut up gey boi
