Bont

Founded in Sydney during 1975 by Sara and Inze Bont, Bont invented the modern speed skate. They were the first to use materials like carbon fibre, kevlar and fibreglass in boots, as well as thermoplastics, and velcro. Bont invented heat mouldable boots, and was the first company to make skates where the blade or frame could be adjusted on the boot.  

Bont was born out of innovation and they continue to innovate to this day.
