PROBLEM

SOLUTION

A sole replacement module housing a dense array of 360-degree hardened carbide ball bearings distributed across the full foot contact surface. Eliminates directional rolling resistance entirely. The wearer glides in any direction with equal and frictionless authority, approximating the locomotion of a figure ice skater operating in zero gravity. Protect your ball sacks at all costs. Especially during rail grinding.

components

A low-profile piezoelectric mounting plate embedded in the midsole that serves as the universal attachment interface for all Hooves-compatible modules. Simultaneously harvests kinetic energy from each footstrike via crystalline lattice compression at the molecular level, storing charge in a flexible graphene supercapacitor woven into the insole. Walk anywhere. Power everything.

Inspect

A hardened carbide sphere seated in a precision race, capable of rolling in any direction with equal resistance in all of them, which is to say none. One unit contributes negligibly. Several hundred units distributed across a shoe sole contribute an entirely new relationship between the foot and the ground.

Inspect

The structural sole plate that seats and retains the full ball bearing array across the foot contact surface. Distributes load evenly across all active bearings. Keeps each sphere in its lane while collectively ensuring no lane has any friction.

Inspect

A hardened lateral edge shield that protects the bearing housing and individual ball sacks during high-impact rail contact. Absorbs the grinding forces so the bearings do not have to. Sacrificial by design. Replaceable by necessity. The unsung hero of every successful grind.

Inspect

A quarter-turn locking collar that secures any UNI Sole-compatible module to the shoe base. Rated for impacts, grinds, and activities the warranty specifically does not cover. Releases with one twist. Does not release on its own.
