• Ensure all buckles and straps are securely fastened before skating.
• Skate in safe, designated areas away from traffic, pedestrians, and uneven surfaces.
• Les enfants doivent toujours être surveillés par un adulte lorsqu'ils patinent.
• Regularly inspect skates for wear and tear, especially wheels, bearings, and fastening systems. Do not use if any part is damaged.

2. Press and hold the adjustment button.
3. Slide the front part of the boot forward or backward to the desired size marking.
4. Release the button to lock the size in place. Ensure it clicks securely.

3.2 Fastening the Skates

The skates are equipped with a triple fastening system to ensure your foot is held securely in place:

1. Lacets : Tighten the laces evenly across the foot for initial snugness.
2. Bande velcro: Secure the Velcro strap over the instep to further hold the foot down.
3. Boucle: Fasten the top buckle around the ankle. Adjust the strap tension until the ankle is firmly supported without restricting circulation.

Ensure all three fastening elements are secure before beginning to skate.

4. Operating the Skates

The Oxelo Fit 3 skates are designed for fitness skating. The composite plate and ABEC 3 bearings provide a smooth and enjoyable ride. The semi-stiff boot with foam padding offers comfort and ventilation during use.

• Always start on a flat, smooth surface to practice balance and basic movements.
• Maintain a slightly bent knee posture for better balance and shock absorption.
• Learn to stop effectively before attempting higher speeds or more complex maneuvers.

Proper maintenance will extend the life and performance of your skates.

5.1 Nettoyage
