Alkali Cele Adjustable Roller Hockey Skates

About the Alkali Cele Adjustable Roller Hockey Skates

The Alkali Cele Adjustable Roller Hockey Skate is purpose-built for recreational players who need a single pair of skates to serve multiple growth stages. The 3D injected composite weave boot delivers a high-volume fit with measurable support, reducing ankle fatigue during extended sessions on surfaces like the ice rinks in India or outdoor asphalt courts across Indian cities. A digitized lever at the heel adjusts skate length across four discrete positions without tools, making the transition between sizes both rapid and secure. Beneath the boot, the aluminum 6000 CNC Hi-Lo chassis positions larger wheels at the rear to encourage an aggressive, balanced skating stance from the first stride. Alkali Loki 82A single-pour urethane wheels handle India's demanding outdoor concrete and asphalt surfaces without degrading prematurely. ABEC-9 bearings maintain roll efficiency across rough terrain. At 1,177 g per pair in size 6–8, the Cele delivers durability-first construction without excessive mass for developing skaters.

Overview

Digitized Growth Adjustment System

The rear digitized lever allows skate length to extend across four locked positions, removing the need to purchase new skates each season. Secure, tool-free adjustment is designed for coaches managing youth programs at club level across Indian cities.

• Four discrete length settings via single lever twist
• Available in sizes 2.0–8.0 to cover youth through adult fit
• Adjustment is secure under skating load, not just static fit
• Reduces per-season equipment cost for recreational programs

Outdoor-Ready Chassis and Wheel System

Alkali's Hi-Lo aluminum chassis and Loki 82A wheels are selected specifically for the abrasive outdoor surfaces common to Indian roller hockey, including concrete sports courts, asphalt parking areas, and multi-use hardcourt facilities.

• Alkali Hi-Lo aluminum 6000 CNC chassis with copper rivets
• 82A single-pour urethane withstands concrete and asphalt abrasion
• Hi-Lo rocker promotes forward-leaning aggressive stance
• 608 hub size compatible with standard inline replacement wheels

Key features

• 3D Injected Composite Weave Boot — The injected composite weave construction provides structural rigidity while retaining enough flex for beginner stride mechanics. High-volume fit profile accommodates wider Indian foot shapes common in recreational player demographics.
• Heat Moldable Shell — The composite boot is heat moldable, allowing pro shops and club equipment managers to shape the shell to individual foot anatomy, reducing hotspots during long outdoor sessions in India's warmer climate.
• Digitized Length Adjustment Lever — A single rear lever locks into four distinct size positions without tools. The mechanism holds under skating load, making mid-session adjustments unnecessary and ensuring consistent fit across varying thickness of socks.
• Alkali Hi-Lo Aluminum 6000 CNC Chassis — The Hi-Lo chassis places larger-diameter wheels at the rear, shifting the skater's center of mass forward into a performance stance. Copper rivets secure the chassis to the outsole for long-term structural integrity on rough terrain.
• Alkali Loki 82A Outdoor Wheels — Single-pour 82A urethane wheels are rated for concrete and asphalt, India's most common outdoor hockey surfaces. 608 hub sizing ensures broad compatibility with aftermarket wheel options available in the Indian market.
• ABEC-9 Precision Bearings — ABEC-9 bearings are rated for minimal radial runout and high rotational consistency, sustaining glide efficiency even on grit-contaminated outdoor court surfaces found in Indian roller hockey facilities.
• AnaForm Foam Ankle Padding — AnaForm foam at the ankle collar provides anatomical cushioning without adding significant mass, supporting lateral stability during edge transitions for players developing their stride on outdoor rinks.

Alkali Cele Adjustable Roller Hockey Skates size guide

Alkali Cele Adjustable skates adjust in length, so one pair covers several sizes as your child's feet grow. Measure the foot and pick the range that includes it — ideally near the start of the range so there is room to grow.

How to measure

1. Stand on a sheet of paper with your heel against a wall, wearing the thin socks you will skate in.
2. Mark the tip of your longest toe and measure from the wall to the mark in centimetres.
3. Choose the range whose foot length includes your child's measurement. Set the skate to the matching size using the adjuster under the toe.

Adjustable size ranges

• Alkali recommends a skate one size smaller than your US shoe size.
• Check the size setting every few months — kids' feet grow fast. When toes press hard against the front at the largest setting, it is time for the next range.
• Not sure? Message us on WhatsApp (+91 91112 22274) with your measurements and we will confirm the right size before you order.

Alkali Cele Adjustable Roller Hockey Skates — frequently asked questions

Are the Alkali Cele skates suitable for Indian outdoor concrete surfaces?

Yes. The Alkali Loki 82A wheels are explicitly rated for concrete and asphalt, which are the dominant outdoor surfaces at Indian roller hockey facilities. The single-pour urethane construction resists the abrasion and surface irregularities typical of outdoor courts in India.

How does the digitized length adjustment work on the Cele skates?

A lever located at the rear of the boot rotates to one of four locked positions, extending or shortening the skate length without tools. The lock holds under active skating load. This mechanism is designed to allow a single pair to span multiple growth stages for youth players.

Can the Alkali Cele boot be heat molded at a local shop?

Yes. The composite weave boot is heat moldable. A trained equipment technician or pro shop can apply controlled heat to shape the shell to the player's individual foot anatomy, which is particularly useful for high-volume feet common in the Indian recreational player population.

What is the weight of the Alkali Cele skates?

The Alkali Cele skates weigh 1,177 g per pair in sizes 6–8, measured independently. A 5% variance applies to other sizes. For context, smaller sizes (2.0–5.0) with the 68 mm and 72 mm wheel configuration will be marginally lighter.

What bearing standard do the Cele skates use, and are they serviceable?

The Cele skates ship with Alkali ABEC-9 rated bearings on a 6 mm square flush 2-piece axle. The bearings are not factory-rated as serviceable, meaning replacement rather than repacking is the recommended maintenance path when performance degrades.

Are these skates appropriate for first-time roller hockey players in India?

The Cele is classified as recreational level with a high-volume fit profile and an injected composite boot that balances support with enough flex to allow natural stride development. The adjustable sizing reduces commitment risk for new players and growing youth athletes.

Can the wheels on the Alkali Cele be replaced with aftermarket options available in India?

Yes. The 608 hub standard used on Loki wheels is the global inline hockey standard. Any 608-hub inline wheel in an appropriate diameter for your size configuration (68 mm, 72 mm, or 76 mm) is compatible, including options sourced through Indian inline sports retailers.

What is the Hi-Lo chassis configuration and why does it matter for beginners?

The Hi-Lo chassis places larger-diameter wheels at the rear and smaller wheels at the front, creating a forward tilt in the skater's stance. This geometry naturally encourages weight distribution over the balls of the feet, which is the mechanically correct position for push-off efficiency and is easier for beginners to maintain.
