Which jumps can be attempted in the Overture?
We suggest the Overture for the skater working on Skate Canada STAR levels 2 and 3.
Skate Profile - Forward Centre of Gravity
- Rear profile shifts the skater's centre of gravity slightly forward
- Upper profile follows the lines of the leg increasing the range of movement and increasing lateral support
Rolled Protective Collars - Increased Range of Movement
- Made of durable, soft microfiber with internal padding
- Padding complememts the anatomical design and increases the range of motion
Anatomical Tongue - Providing Support
Flexible tongue allows you to move your ankle effortlessly and to bend easily from the first time you lace up your skates.Made of 2 separate parts. The longitudinal curve and the transverse curve. Reduces strain and risk of injury.
- Longitudinal curve supports the leg while bending
- Transverse curve wraps the instep for better comfort
- Tongue rigidity varies by model. Softer for entry level models, more rigid for advanced models.
Anatomical Shell - Made of Thermoforming Materials
The unique Edea lasts (the shape used to make skate boots) are shaped for exceptional comfort without pressure points. They work for many different foot shapes.
- The warmth of your foot adjust the padding to wrap around your feet
- Tri-foil thermoforming materials made from elastomeric polymers. Anatomically shaped during production with heat.
High Density Memory Foam Padding - The Ultimate in Comfort
- Supports the ankle and holds the heel in place
- Ensures a fast and easy break-in time
- Quick drying open cell air-tech microfiber lining means slow bacteria build-up
SH Microfibre Interior Linings are Hypo-Allergenic
- A combination of natural and synthetic fibers which are less prone to wear
- Hypo-allergenic materials mean quick drying time, slow bacteria build-up and improved boot hygiene
Innovative Sole System - Eliminating Twist & Torque
The Edea sole has 2 layers. A lightwweight honeycomb layer and a thinner ventilated membrane. These two materials combine to provide a lower center of gravity and better feel for deeper edges.
The Honeycomb Layer
- Made of a macro-molecualr structure which improves impact resistance and structural strength.
- Reinforced in the middle to eliminate twist and torque during demanding skating elements.
- It dampens negative vibrations which reduces skater fatigue.
Ventilated Membrane
- Is a mould resistant non-organic material.
- It is light and thinner helping the foot stay cooler.
Secured Lacing - Anatomy of Edea's Patended Hooks
Edea Hooks
According to Edea's research - The hold and comfort of a boot starts with the hooks!
Paired with the Edea lacing method, this combo ensures maximum support, comfort and performance from your skate boots. (Looser on the upper hooks / Tighter across the instep / Looser across the toes)
Hook Material
- Patended crush proof carbon steel hook
- Hooks are tempered to improve strength
- Hooks are galvanized to reduce corrosion
Hook Design
- Wider at the base
- Longer and rounded edges
- This design makes lacing easier and hold longer
Hook Placement
- The wider base of the hook is sewn inise the boot's upper
- The hooks are placed lower to keep laces more secure when wrapped
- This unique position reduces pressure on ankles giving you more comfort
Double Helix Threaded Screws - Superior Hold for Longer
With the sole being thinner in design than traditional skate soles, a shorter screw was required. Superior hold for better performance.
- The double helix threaded screws increase the 'bite' surface ensuring a tigher lock, holding significanlty longer
- Made of 100% galvanized steel which protects against rust and corrosion
How much pressure should I apply while lacing?
Edea recommends
- Looser across the toes
- Tighter across the instep
- Looser on the upper hooks for more flexibility.
