Boot Technology

Luigino Racing first introduced AquaTech™ in 2010 in their premier inline and ice speed skating boots. This is a unique material that activates with hot water/steam. The material becomes soft and pliable, allowing it to custom fit to the foot. What makes this material so special is its ability to mold over and over. Aqua Material returns to its original consistency after cooling for the life of the boot.

Luigino Racing and Atom’s revolutionary hot water molding technique has changed the way people mold inline, ice, and quad skating boots forever. No more meltdowns with ovens or heat guns. AquaTech™ is the most effective and comprehensive boot molding system on the market today.

This method is thorough; eliminating hot and cold spots ensuring a perfect fit. AquaTech™ is used exclusively in Luigino Racing and Atom Skate products.

BFT™ – Barefoot Technology name comes from the “STANDARD SHAPE OF A BARE FOOT”

BFT™ is based on a 'Natural Fit' philosophy that positions the foot naturally the way Mother Nature intended it. Atom quad and Luigino Racing Inline boots offer BFT™. This unique shape offers a true fit, accommodating the shape of the human foot... not deforming it. This is why BFT™ is so important. Over time, the natural fit helps support the muscular system to reach your optimal performance all while making skating more enjoyable. This unique shape gives you the ultimate in comfort and stability.

Same foot overlaid on a “traditional boot without BFT™, the toes are SQUEEZED!

NOTE: Some feet are pointed and fit “traditional” shape better than a BFT™ shape. However, the standard or most common foot shape is shaped like BFT™

Atom Vertigo quad boot with Pro Back™

Atom & Luigino Racing continually push the boundaries of boot design in order to provide the skater a product that improves performance and offers maximum comfort. Pro-E is no ordinary sole. Whether it is a removable insole or incorporated into the product design, Pro-E positions your foot properly, giving you unprecedented control and comfort.

Traditional skate boot soles are flat, providing at best, a slight arch and toe-rise. Pro-E brings you a true contoured foot bed providing the comfort and support that your foot needs and deserves when under the stress and physical demands

of skating. This is especially true if you are on your skates for long periods of time, frequently, or wanting maximum performance.
