Business news : Cardiff Skate Co. Reinvigorates Skating Industry With Patented Design

Two Key US Retailers Make Plans for a Strong 2014 After Stellar Holiday Sales

CARDIFF BY THE SEA, CA--( January 15, 2014) - Cardiff Skate Company, designers of the first bootless, strap-in skates to automatically size-adjust with tri-skate wheel technology, is pleased to announce the launch of their patented skates in Brookstone and Sport Chalet nationwide in 2014. Built with the needs of the everyday skater or outdoor enthusiast in mind,

Cardiff Skates offer patented features that enable any user to step on, strap in, and skate away with the most stable and adjustable skates in the industry today.

Inspired by the roller blades and scooters that came before, Cardiff Skates are designed to make the art of skating fun for all experience levels. Used with your favorite pair of shoes, Cardiff skates automatically size-adjust through patented bindings and snap on for a custom fit. Unlike quad or inline skates, Cardiff Skates come with an inherently stable, patented tri-skate wheel platform, giving the user a solid base, as well as the unique ability to brake from either foot.

"Convenience, balance and fun were my criteria when designing these skates," says inventor and avid skater Brian Green. "Eight years and two patents later, Cardiff Skates achieve all three."
Cardiff Skates were introduced to the market at several online retailers, and in Sport Chalet and Brookstone stores. After successfully testing Cardiff Skates during the holidays, Brookstone is proceeding with a chain wide rollout in 2014.

"Inline skating was once the fastest growing sport in the US with over 30 million participants," says Cardiff Skate Co. CEO, Bob Pollack. "We believe these skates will once again transform the industry."

Cardiff Skates can be found online at www.cardiffskate.com, or at West Coast Brookstone and Sport Chalet locations with additional retail chains coming later this year.
