Hockey Inline Frames – Control, Speed & Agility for Competitive Inline Hockey
What Are Hockey Inline Frames?
Hockey inline frames, also known as chassis or skate frames, are the structures that hold the wheels under a pair of hockey inline skates. They are crucial for stability, responsiveness, and power transfer during fast-paced games. A quality frame helps you corner sharply, stop quickly, and accelerate with precision.

Construction & Features
A standard hockey inline frame includes:

Lightweight materials like aluminum or reinforced nylon

4-wheel slots, often in a Hi-Lo setup

Standard mounting compatibility with most inline hockey boots

Low profile design for a close-to-the-ground feel

Hi-Lo System – The Hockey Standard
Most hockey frames use the Hi-Lo configuration:

76 mm wheels in front, 80 mm in the rear

Benefits: faster acceleration, enhanced control, better agility

Some frames also support flat setups or customizable wheel sizing.

Why Upgrade to a High-Quality Frame?

Increased durability for high-intensity play

Custom feel based on player preference

Advanced players benefit from frames that match their exact style and skating needs.
