Heel bruises suck and can takes weeks to heal keeping you away from board. Building off the success of System G2, STI is proud to introduce the latest innovative breakthrough in skateboarding cushioning protection: System G2 Platinum™. This new technology utilizes a special dilatant mesh which is soft and squishy under the foot during low impact activities, but when larger impacts are experienced; the mesh becomes rigid to absorb and distribute impact energy away from the foot.
STI testing and research has found the System G2 Platinum™ absorbs 28% more impact energy than traditional EVA cupsole skate shoe and best of all it can be 33% thinner than regular System G2™. What does that mean for you? Finally a way to have improved board feel and comfort without having to sacrifice heel bruise protection!
