The K2 Charm skate means business. You may recognise the super functional 'Boa' tightening wheel from popular Ski, snowboard and walking boots.

The Boa wheel (Boa is the name of the brand) sits on the tongue of the skate and acts as a quick and easy tightening system. It comes in super useful on kids skates because it makes putting on and taking off your skates such a doddle. On top of the quick fastening and quick release, the Boa wheel gives a very 'even' and comfortable fit.

The unbreakable nylon laces don't just tighten the trainer part of the skate; they also feed through the cuff at the top of the ankle, so you don't need a top fastening buckle. All you need is a few turns of the wheel, tighten the mid-strap down and you are away. The fastening easily releases in one click (by pulling the wheel outwards away from the skate).

Of course, the skates also come with the usual comfort of the K2 soft boot technology and are all size extendable up to five sizes to make sure your aspiring skaters don't grow out of them any time soon. K2 really thought long and hard about the wheel set-up and opted for 2 x 76mm at the back and 2 x 72mm at the front also known as 'Hi-Lo'.

This created a more natural and organic forward-lean to the skate and again supports the energy transfer as much as possible (Only on the two larger sizes). The small UK10-UK1 version runs a flat set of 70mm wheels to keep them in proportion to smaller foot.

The wheels are a high-quality Polyurethane (no rattling or sliding about on these!). The bearings are also proper precision bearings (not semi-precision like skates from toy stores, catalogue stores or sports shops). Expect great times with the K2 Charm Boa.
