Muy estables, rápidos y de calidad m. Patines para los que aman realmente patinar.. tengo más de 30 años patinando y me siento como bebé con juguete nuevo. Si tienen la piel frágil toca acostumbrarla o bien usar medias pero eso mismo con cualquier patin..

I purchased the Bont Jet inline speed skates from Amazon for my wife and she has mixed feelings about them. My wife enjoys recreational skating and was looking for a pair of speed skates with excellent ankle mobility, these caught her eye. The rest of the review will be based on her feedback about the skates.I bought these skates mainly because of their unique design and lower ankle profile, which I believed would provide better ankle mobility compared to traditional inline skates. Upon receiving the package, I was eager to try them out. Getting started with the skates was straightforward. The included Jet Skate boot, 2PF 6061 frame, elemental wheels, and ABEC7 bearings all seemed well-made and of high quality. I encountered some difficulty with the buckles though as they have a different design compared to my previous skates, and it took me a while to figure out how to undo them. Eventually, I managed to unlock them and put the skates on.I followed Bont's size chart for guidance, but I found that the skates run long. I usually wear a women's size 7.5 wide shoe, and I ordered size 41 based on the chart. There is about a half of an inch of empty space between my toes and the front of the skate boot, indicating that these skates run a bit large. However, the width was suitable for me, and I was able to secure them around my feet using laces and a strap.The biggest disappointment with these skates was the tightness around the ankles. They were much too tight, which hindered ankle mobility and caused discomfort. It felt as if the skates were immobilizing my ankles more than taller skates do. This issue made them unsuitable for the ankle movement I was seeking. I plan to try heat-shaping the plastic around the ankles to improve the fit. According to manufacturer, if you need to heat-mold skate boots, you need to remove the blades with wheels, put boots in an oven at the very specific temperature (don't use the oven's temperature gauge, put inside your own for precise measurements), heat up the skates boots, and then you can mold them with your hands or a blunt object to improve pressure points or even put them on your feet (make sure they aren't too hot first) and get into your usual skating position and let them cool on your feet - this way boots will get the precise form to match your feet. This whole process requires some skill, practice, and patience, but I'm hoping for a successful outcome. Apart from the ankle issue, these skates performed really well. The wheels turn very smoothly, and the carbon fiber sole adds to their sturdiness and overall quality. And they look awesome on my feet!Once I hit the road with these skates, I experienced their true capabilities. The Jet Skate Boot provides excellent ankle support, allowing for efficient power transfer and enhanced control during high-speed skating. The 2PF 6061 Frame is lightweight yet sturdy, providing a stable platform for quick and agile movements. The Elemental Wheels offer impressive grip and smooth rolling, contributing to an overall comfortable skating experience. The ABEC7 Bearings ensure minimal friction, resulting in increased speed and effortless gliding.Overall, I am extremely satisfied with these Bont Skates. They deliver exceptional performance and comfort (if properly molded), making them an ideal choice for serious inline skaters and racing enthusiasts. The ability to heat mold the skates to my feet provided a custom fit that can significantly enhance my skating experience.*** TL;DR ***I would recommend the Bont Jet inline speed skates to individuals seeking a unique design and sturdy construction for speed skating. However, be cautious about sizing, as they tend to run a bit long. The ankle support may require heat-shaping to be comfortable, and the buckles might be tricky to handle. Overall, these skates have really great potential but come with few minor drawbacks. My rating is 5 stars, good product.+++ Pros +++1) Unique design with lower ankle profile.2) Sturdy construction with a carbon fiber sole.3) Potential for heat-shaping to improve the fit.4) Lightweight and sturdy 2PF 6061 Frame.5) Impressive grip and smooth rolling with Elemental wheels.6) ABEC7 Bearings for increased speed and effortless gliding.7) Great looking on your feet.--- Cons ---1) Sizing runs a bit large/long.2) Heat molding is required to provide comfortable ankle support.3) Difficulty with the buckles.

Been looking for inline skates for my wife since 2020, but I guess everyone else was buying skates at the same time too. She was really excited that I got her these! (And I got some bonus Wife Points: These skates match the helmet she already has. Gotta match, don't you know.) She's not a professional, so I think these will last her forever. So far she's just wheeled around the house a bit, but the wheels seem sturdy and smooth. I got these boot adjuster so we can fit them properly to her feet, too. She's a little worried about not having ankle support since these are speed skates, but is determined to spend this winter strengthening her ankles so she can rock these skates next year.

Before ordering, I measured my feet per Bont’s size chart (‼️THIS IS IMPORTANT‼️DON’T JUST ORDER YOUR NORMAL SHOE SIZE‼️) and I was right at the limit for 42 (the largest size offered on Amazon) so I knew there was a chance they would be too small and unfortunately, that is the case. For reference, all of my shoes and boots are size 11-12.With that said, I have to hand it to Bont for the consistency between their charts and their products; their sizing is more accurate than 99% of footwear manufacturers of all types.Sadly, these will be going back. I looked at Bont’s website and saw that these are offered in larger sizes, just not on Amazon. I may reach out to them to inquire about possibly getting a larger replacement. Obviously I have zero expectations of that request as they have no obligation to do so, being that those sizes aren’t listed here, but it can’t hurt to try. If I end up with a pair of skates that fit, I will be back to provide an update!

Since others had issues with these skates being too small using the “foot trace method”, I used a conversion chart instead. I wear a size 8 shoe, which converts to a size 6.5 mens, 38.5 European, which on their sizing chart states indicates a size 6 1/2. This size is consistent with the size of other skates that I’ve skated in . As you can see in the photos, these are quite large on me, by maybe a full size. With that said, I’m not sure what the best course of action would be to get the correct size boots the first time around. I am hoping with an heal/ankle support brace, these will fit better!Aside from the sizing, these are very good quality boots. They are surprisingly lightweight.I will update if I get the opportunity to skate in them.
