Roller Derby Skate Toe Stop Replacement

简介

This guide will show you how to replace the toe stop on your roller derby skates. We use one of Epic Skates’ Epic Classic Black Quad Rollers Skates (SKU: ClassBlk ) to demonstrate the steps. The kind of toe stop used in this guide is referred to as a round toe stop. This kind of toe stop is often confused with toe plugs; however, toe plugs are not meant for breaking like toe stops. The guide works with other similarly shaped toe stops that do not have a hole and bolt through the center of the toe stop. We do recommend cleaning your skates before and while replacing the toe stops. Click here for more details regarding cleaning and care.
