Hardness: Blue 47D
Diameter: 63mm
Compound: MonoCompound Elastomeric ThermoPlastiche Formula
The Giotto 47D Special Professional Figure Wheels provides and EXTRA amount of Grip for VERY Slippery Skating Surfaces and are the World Standard by which all other Figure wheels are compared. The Giotto Professional Figure Wheels are primarily used for the Long (Large) Circles, but can also be used for Loops. Most of the World level Figure competitors use the 63mm for the Large Circles and use combinations of hardnesses of the Giotto Professional Figure Wheel to achieve the best Skating result. Roll-Line has developed this wheel giving it properties that provide great roll with an extra amount of grip for figures. Compulsory Figures are high precision exercises. The feet transmit the impulses to the skating boot and thus to the steering (for the direction) and finally to the wheel (for contact with the skating surface). The Roll-Line Giotto Professional Figure Wheels (47D) are a Lo-Profile wheel with exceptional Roll characteristics with extremely Close Tolerances for Roundness, Trueness, and for the Cage where the Bearings and Spacers are mounted. The Roll-Line Giotto Professional Figure Wheels are a MonoCompound Elastomeric ThermoPlastiche wheel, which is produced utilizing an injection system and is Silver Chromed.
The 47D provides a very special application for very slippery Skating surfaces.
Blue: 47D
Note from Box:
THESE WHEELS ARE MADE OF A SPECIAL COMPOUND WHICH IS SUITABLE FOR VERY SLIPPERY SURFACES
In certain conditions, the Bearings may move within the Wheel but this is due to the softness of the Compound used in the Manufacture of the Wheel and must not be considered a Technical Defect
In the USA, most skaters use the 61D, while stepping down to the 54D or sometimes the 58D for the inside toe wheels as additional Push Wheels. The 47D could be used by those Skating Figures on VERY Slippery Skating Surfaces.
