GETTING STARTED

Thank you for supporting Standard. Let’s help you set up your Omni boots.

Inside the box you’ll find your Omni and a packet of tools and hardware. Some models also include the frames and wheels, or you might be using your own. Your Omni is UFS compatible, so any UFS frame will work. Visit any of our retailers to explore the dozens of UFS frame options available to you.

Before you mount your frames, make sure to tighten the soul plate bolts. You can use the provided tool to tighten all of the hardware on your Omni and your frames. It’s important the soul plate bolts are flush with the frame channel to ensure proper frame installation.

Grab your UFS frames and place them on the bottom of your Omni. You should line up the frame mounting holes with the boot receptors. Using the 20mm frame bolts, secure your frames to your Omni. There should be no movement between your frames and your Omni.

Your Omni are now ready to skate. Enjoy the new ride!

Dialing It In

After a few sessions on your Omni, you might be interested in ways to make your skating even better. Here’s a few suggestions to optimize your setup

Heat Mold Your Liners

The Comfort liners are designed with extra padding around the ankle to make skating more enjoyable. But did you know that padding can be customized for your individual feet?

We use a blend of materials which become moldable when heated, and return to their supportive shape when cooled. And the best part is you can easily customize the fit at home.

  • Set your oven to 170° F or 75° C (if your oven can’t reach this temperature, set it as low as possible)

  • Remove your Comfort liners from your Omni and place them on a baking sheet. The Omni can not be placed in the oven, only the liners

  • Once your oven reaches temperature, turn off the oven and place the baking sheet with your liners inside at the bottom rack

  • Leave the liners in the oven for 15 minutes to activate the moldable material

  • When time is up, remove the liners and place them into your Omni.

  • Put your Omni on your feet and lace and buckle them up normally.

  • Have a seat for 20 minutes and let the material cool around your ankles.

Note: Do not heat mold your plastic skates. The Omni boot material can not handle high temperatures. Ensure the liners are removed from the skates before attempting to heat mold.

Heel Pad Customization

The Heel Pads sit inside the Omni shell under your heels and provide a more natural skating position with the benefit of a more comfortable ride. The Omni V3 come with the 15mm PU Heel Pads, designed with the perfect balance of bounce and responsiveness.

If you’d like more of a responsive ride, or prefer a traditional raised heel boot, we offer 3d printed Heel Risers to replicate that classic feeling. They’re custom designed to fit all Omni boots and include double sided tape for easy installation.

There are plenty of aftermarket shock absorbers available in a variety of thicknesses and materials. Experiment with your ride and see what you prefer.

Maintenance

If you want to prolong the life of your Omni, and enjoy every session as much as possible, it’s important to check your skates for issue before you skate.

Keep Everything Tight

There’s nothing worse than a part falling out when you’re skating. Make sure to tighten every axle, bolt and screw every time you lace up your skates. If you hear any sound at all while you skate, it’s likely something has come loose.

Rotate Your Wheels

The wheels on your skates are like tires on a car. They’ll wear out eventually with use. To prolong the live of you wheels, make sure you rotate them after you notice any wear. This all depends on the surface your skating, the temperature you’re skating in, and the style of skating you’re doing.

To rotate your wheels when skating antirocker, take the first wheel on your right skate and replace it with the last wheel on your left skate. Do the same thing with your other two wheels.

For a flat setup, take the first wheel and replace it with the third on the other skate. Then take the second wheel and replace it with the fourth on the other skate. Do this with all of your wheels.

Make sure the graphics are now facing inwards so your wheels wear evenly.

Clean Your Bearings

Your wheels should spin freely with no resistance and no noise. The best way to keep your wheels fast is by wiping down your bearings every time you rotate your wheels. If your bearings are serviceable, you can use some isopropyl alcohol to clean them. Just make sure to add some bearing oil after they’re clean.

Aftermarket Parts

Even if you maintain your skates after every session, you’ll eventually need to replace some parts. Wheels, Bearings, Soul Plates and Frames are readily available at any of our retail partners.
