The wide wheelbase of Skorpion Quadline provides exceptional stability. Due to the unique design of the Skorpion Quadline, its 4 X 100mm performance wheels are placed around the footplate surrounding the feet. This intelligent design lowers the skater's center of gravity making the Skorpion Quadline, the lowest profile and most easy-to- balance skate ever produced.
The adjustable-size skate straps onto regular shoes, similar to the metal clip-on roller skates that were popular in the mid-1950s. But that's where the resemblance ends. Unlike the tiny metal wheels of the old clip-on skates, the Quadline sports 100mm big wheels, which rise above the footbed, complete with struts, giving the skate the look of a mini-dune buggy.
