Nitro Charger Mini

The Nitro Charger Mini is a pair of skates designed specifically for children, giving young riders a way to explore sidewalks, parks and paved paths with confidence. This model sits within Nitro’s Charger line and focuses on ease of use and comfort for kids just getting started on wheels.

These skates feature a flex rating of 3, which means the boot and cuff are relatively soft and forgiving. That extra give makes it easier for small skaters to bend their ankles, shift their weight and steer smoothly—helping them maintain balance and reducing fatigue during those first outings.

The flex rating system measures how stiff or soft a skate’s shell and cuff are. A lower number, like 3, indicates a softer setup that allows more natural ankle movement. For children, this softer flex translates into more comfort, better control and a gentler learning curve as they develop basic skating skills.
