USD Carbon II - The Future of Aggressive

The USD Carbon II - The Future of Aggressive. The Carbon skate has succeeded in breaking out of the plastic monopoly that has been aggressive skate technology’s bread and butter since its creation. The Carbon is undeniably a true innovation and with it’s “Lighter - Faster - Closer” slogan it perfectly describes the advantages of this new development, with skaters worldwide reaping the benefits.

The Carbon is a dream skate for many skaters, yet being the first of it's type, we still found ways of making it even better.

Now the Carbon II is truly another step ahead:

Improved flex
Lasting support
More comfortable
Exclusive new cuff
Brand new forward flex improvements for enhanced jumps and landings.
Stronger construction
Lower price despite performance enancements
Triple stitched outer boot for toughest resistance yet.

This is now a real softboot hybrid that lasts even longer and includes a new cuff for improved support and flexibility. This new cuff, which has been created with a brand new and exclusive mold, includes a v-cut cuff which matches the enhanced lining of the skate. The improved flex thanks to this new cuff means that there is less stress on the inside lining allowing for longer life, perfect heel lock and, all round better performance.


The  flex is also supported by a unique tongue, a one piece construction made from different foams allowing for great comfort, perfect flex and no wrinkles or surplus material that could cause blisters.

We also redesigned the internal structure making the carbon lower, with a new shape. We built in more flex zones to accommodate the additional cuff while maintaining plenty of support to do any trick you can imagine and we made the crucial enhancement of superb forward flex being implemented into the design, a real bonus when it comes to your jumps and landings.
