With artwork of Roller Skates and Inline Skates, a skate themed cap is the perfect way for your skater to share the love of skating!
  

• Infusion Drink Bottle

  We all know how important it is to stay hydrated before, during and after exercising! Why not go for an infusion drink bottle with skates on it? Maybe your skater wants to get a little bit more out of their water? An Infusion Bottle is great for the Health-conscious skater, so they can make healthy, customized drinks to take on the go, or the skater who struggles to stay hydrated, so they can make their water more delicious and look more enticing!
  
  
  

• Geo Heart Wax

  Is the skater in your life into aggressive park skating? These gorgeous Geo Heart Skate Waxes are the perfect little booster to help advance their moves and get those slides smoother and longer! Available in a wide range of colours and 3 different formulas; Soft, Hard and Hybrid!
  Pro tip: Soft Wax is great for rough street surfaces; Hard Wax is great for Skatepark coping and ledges and Hybrid Wax is perfect for the skater who likes a little of both!
  BONUS: Skaters can use wax on outdoor skating surfaces for spins and dance moves on rougher ground!
  
  
  

• Twinkle Toes Toe Stops

  Peeling through your toe stops? Why not go for some funky toe stops in Twinkle star shapes! These stoppers have been put to the test by Kea on smooth, slick, and extra rough surfaces and they are her favourite toe stops so far! Use them down-hill, or to get up hill, use them in the skate park or on smooth rink floors. The grip and durability of the Rollerstuff Twinkle Toes toe stops is extremely versatile and the shape is super cute with a gorgeous colour selection! These have a slightly smaller profile than most other toe stops, so they are great for the skater moving into roller dance, who are still a little nervous about using jam plugs!
  
  
  
  
  

• Swirls Jam Plugs

  On the topic of roller dance and jam plugs, we present to you Swirls Jam Plugs! These are smaller, harder and WAY better to look at that your standard jam plugs! If you know a skater who wants to level up their roller dance moves, these are the plugs you want!

With a vibrant colour selection all featuring a swirled design, these Swirls jam plugs will make a beautiful, unique gift!
