Steering Springs

Please refer to the Owner’s Manual that came with your skates
for other important mechanical, safety, and user information.

L

The PowerCarveTM system utilizes two springs of different
strengths. This design ensures the best steering response. We
advise that the springs be at least one strength grade apart.
Yellow= Light, Black= Medium, Red=Heavy, Green= Xtra Heavy
NOTE: If the steering is too responsive, install stiffer springs. If
the steering is too stiff, install lighter springs.

Tools needed:

5mm allen key
Flathead screwdriver
