Description

Special boot made for people with wider feet with PM blade!
The XBR is a slightly broader version of the regular model. The boot is 2mm wider at the heel and 4mm wider at the ball of the foot making this model ideal for people with a broader foot. Like the normal Gold 2005 boot this boot is handmade and completely thermoplastic, always ensuring a perfect fit. The combination of kangaroo leather and Kevlar ensures that the boot is stiff and the fit is retained even after many uses. The boots have a soft calfskin lining and are approximately 120 grams lighter than the 2000 gold boots. This combination with the blade allows for both side to side movement and the front and back as well as back and forth movement thereby allowing the optimal position to be obtained.

The characteristic red anodised bridge is made of 7075 aluminium and has 3 times the tensile strength of ordinary stirrups. Because of this the skate is great for driving at high speeds, and this model is used for example by toppers as Sven Kramer and Ireen Wüst!
This set comes with PM steel 'Sprint' blades. The PM steel has a hardness of 66 HRC (Rockwell C), and contains the alloying elements tungsten, vanadium and carbon which ensure that the steel has a lower coefficient of friction (about 25% lower) than the normal special steel blade. This makes the iron stays sharp longer and wear less quickly.
The sprint blade has a height of 40 mm (35 mm compared to normal) and makes you harder and more angled to the corner.

All skates are supplied ready to use; this means bent and rockered (standard curve is 23 meters) If you would like a different radius, then please indicate this when completing your order.
