Abstract

A skate riser as described herein can include adjustable offset capability or static offset capability. In the case of risers with static offset capability, presented herein are various skate riser systems that generally have a skate riser defined between a boot adapter mount end and a skate runner mount end, wherein the skate riser is not adjustable. The skate riser system further comprises a boot adapter mount that is connected to the boot adapter mount end. The boot adapter mount is configured to connect to a boot sole of a skate boot. A quick release shaft extends into a riser aperture in the riser between the ends. The quick release shaft comprises a key that retains a skate runner mount to the riser when in a first position/orientation but not when in a second position/orientation. Advantages of the static offset skate riser includes the ability to quickly swap out a blade with one configuration with a blade having a different configuration or simply just swapping out a blade.
