The Zandstra Verstelbare Noor Oslo 1663 is an adjustable long-track skate designed for growing junior skaters. It’s part of Zandstra’s range of kinderschaatsen and jeugd langebaanschaatsen, offering young skaters a reliable, size-adaptable option for recreational and training sessions on natural ice.
These skates come with high carbon springsteel blades that hold their edge well and resist wear, helping maintain smooth gliding over multiple outings. The adjustable boot frame grows with the foot, so you won’t need a new pair every season, and the 27 m blade radius delivers a balance between stability and the ability to carve gentle turns.
The 27 m radius refers to the curvature of the blade: a larger radius promotes a straighter, more stable glide at speed, making it easier to maintain momentum on long tracks. The blade’s hardness of 58 Rc (Rockwell C scale) indicates a firm, wear-resistant steel that keeps its sharpness longer, so you spend less time sharpening and more time skating.
