Ology Carbon SL Hybrid

The SL Carbon was developed to bring two characteristics together to make the first true hybrid carbon and plastic skate in the world. 

This project is simply described as using a minimal, tough carbon fiber shell perfectly molded to the bottom portion of the Razors SL boot to improve all around performance of the skate with possible overall weight reduction.  The project is focused on fully exploiting what the two materials have to offer, stiffness and flexibility, and placing those characteristics in locations where they perform best as opposed to a fully injection molded plastic design based on a lower manufacturing price point. 

Thanks to an all new mold making method unique to Ology, the Carbon SL has an air tight fit, snaps on when being put on the boot, and fastens using the stock soul-area screw locations to fix to the shell.  This new ultra-light and thin carbon fiber unlocks the potential of the Razors SL by substituting the stock soul assembly with a stiff carbon fiber chassis, transforming the shell into a carbon boot capable of using modern one piece soulplates, like USD Carbons, VII's, Adapt, Seba, and various mods like split-channeling soulplates or freeskate setups.  Equally as important, the design leaves the plastic cuff and shell untouched, leaving full Razors plastic flex with all the power and precision found in modern carbon skates surrounding the bottom of the boot.

For over 25 years, Razors has made some of the best fitting and most accommodating boots on the market, with a lasting focus on their iconic flex.  Razors skate designs significantly shaped the progression of inline trick styles and skate culture during the height of aggressive inline skating, and proudly continue to produce top selling skates and innovative parts. The SL series is the latest boot by the brand, giving light weight construction with a thinner plastic footbed for close to the foot grinds and a better feel.
