*** Please note the size chart and sizes listed are based on the official Flying Eagle size charts, directly from the manufacturer. The UK and US conversions are a little different to what we'd normally expect. We find purchasing based on your regular EU size produces the best fit. You can also refer to the size chart for the centimetre measurements.
The Flying Eagle F5S Eclipse Black Skates are designed to compete with some of the biggest names in freestyle skates, offering premium features at an entry-level price tag.
The hard shell boot supports the ankle in all environments and styles of skating. The liner and cuff work together very well, utilising a v-cut calf area, for maximum comfort and flexibility. The F5S has one the comfiest liners in the Flying Eagle range, with a little extra toe room too. The comfort levels are a serious competitor in the market!
On the boot, you will find a 3-point closure system from lace, a 45-degree mid-strap and a top strap. The toe box is built from neoprene which allows the liner to wrap around your toe shape (and forgiveness if your foot is a few millimetres one way or the other from the optimum size).
The front and rear wheel axles are "flippable" by 180°. This will benefit those who are looking for. multi-purpose skates. Flipping the front and rear axles positions the wheels higher to the two middle wheels, called banana rockering. A banana rocker is the industry standard in slalom and freestyle skating, allowing for more extreme manoeuvrability and precision. If you don't want your skates to be this way 24/7, no worries. Just flip the axles back and they'll run in flat configuration too.
Combined with a machined aluminium frame, 80mm wheels (76mm on smaller sizes) and super fast bearings we have a very accessible skate which is fast, comfortable, supportive and manoeuvrable, at a great price. Perfect for the seafront, city, urban and slalom skating.
