Skateboarding can cause many foot disorders and problems. It places a great deal of shock and stress on the foot via all the jumps and moves. This stress can lead to injuries. One of the ways to counter the development of skateboarding injuries is to wear orthotics or insoles to help prevent injuries due to skateboarding. Skateboarding shoes tend to be low profile so they require a low profile orthotic as well. I have listed two of what I consider the best orthotics or insoles for skateboarding:
Remind Insoles– These orthotics are specifically designed to provide cushioning and shock absorption during activities such as skateboarding. They come in different designs but are high quality orthotics and insoles designed with the skateboarder in mind.
But by far the best orthotic or insole for skateboarding is the Footprint Kinfoam Orthotic Insole Protection– This line of orthotics and insoles comes with a varied degree of top covers with different designs. Additionally, it is specifically created with a skateboarder in mind as these orthotics can absorb as much as 95% of the impact energy during skateboarding. The other positive is these orthotics are specifically designed to fit into skateboard specific shoes. If you are looking for orthotics for a skateboarder these would be the insoles to purchase.
