The Magic Skate Goods HEX roller skate plate is the heavy duty skate plate you've been waiting for. Designed and crafted locally in Australia, it not only encompasses the features required to hone your skating to the highest level, it also puts quality, sustainability and ethics at the forefront.
Features:
- Australian made, designed and owned.
- High impact resistant hexagon brace pattern modelled off nature's strongest shape, allows strength and flexibility while reducing weight (patent pending).
- A specially formulated lightweight but heavy duty Nylon construction, made with skating in mind by design experts specialised in action sports.
- Allan key adjustable toe stop with innovative two part lock system for maximum toe stop security(patent pending).
- Longer wheelbase than most skate plates for maximum stability.
The 'Raw Plate' option comes with pivot cups, kingpins, cushions, cushion retainers, mounting hardware, and nuts. Don't pay for anything you don't want/need and use your trucks and toe stops of preference.
The 'Narrow Truck' option comes with all of the above, plus standard narrow roller skate trucks.
The '2.5" Truck' option comes with all of the above, plus wider 2.5" low rider trucks, great for the skatepark. These trucks are wide enough to allow grinding without causing wheel bite or feeling like you have monster trucks under your feet. They are also lower than most other alternatives, creating excellent stability, control and trick-feel.
If you're looking for toe stops, we recommend adding the Park Hopper toe stops from our mates across the ditch, IQWT.
Sizing
The sizing is the length of the plate in mm. So, all you need to do to know your size is measure the base of your skate and choose the best option to fit.
Compatibility
TRUCKS
The HEX plate fits the Magic Lowrider trucks, and most 10 degree wide trucks including Chuffedcore, and Brunny Labrys trucks. Huck Trucks need to be cut down at the pivot insert point to fit as they are much taller than our recommended Low Rider trucks.
KINGPIN DISTANCE
This will help you determine your block size. It is the measurement between the centre of one kingpin to the centre of the other kingpin.
215.5- 75mm
228 - 90mm
240.5 - 105mm
253 - 120mm
260.5 - 135mm
Block fit can be impacted by wheel size and the type of trucks you use. Larger wheels may impact block wings and require mods or a smaller block or wheel size.
