Moxi Beach Bunny Roller Skate | Blue Sky

Moxi's Beach Bunny in Blue Sky is one of the most popular first skates around: a supportive, drum-dyed vinyl high-top with glittery outdoor wheels.

The drum-dyed vinyl upper gives rich, saturated colour, with matching vinyl toe caps, a curved padded collar and a moisture-wicking Dri-Lex lining. Underneath, a Marvel aluminium plate runs glittery 58mm 78A high-rebound outdoor wheels and ABEC-5 bearings, with a PowerDyne adjustable toe stop.

Tech Specs

• Upper: Drum-dyed vinyl, matching vinyl toe caps
• Lining: Moxi Dri-Lex
• Sole and heel: PVC
• Plate: Marvel aluminium
• Wheels: 58mm, 78A outdoor, glitter
• Bearings: ABEC-5
• Toe stop: PowerDyne adjustable
• Width: Medium
• Sizes: US 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 (whole sizes)

Fit Guide

• Go by foot length, not shoe size. Moxi sizes run differently to street shoes. Measure your foot heel to toe in cm, wearing skate socks, and match it to the Moxi size chart for this model.
• Snug, not painful. A good fit is snug with no pressure points. Skates loosen a little as they break in.
• Whole sizes only. The Beach Bunny comes in whole sizes and a medium width.
• Break-in: The supportive sides are fairly stiff at first, so expect a few sessions before they feel fully broken in.
• SoCal tip: new skates should feel snug, with your toes just touching the front and your heel staying put when you bend your knees. Try them on in store or call us on 03 9421 2293.

FAQ

Are Moxi Beach Bunny skates good for beginners?
Yes. The padded high-top and supportive sides make it a great first skate for outdoor cruising.

Can I use the Moxi Beach Bunny indoors?
Yes, but the soft 78A outdoor wheels are built for grip on rough surfaces. For rink or dance skating, a harder indoor wheel is a common swap.

Can I take Beach Bunnies to the skatepark?
Moxi's own buying guide doesn't recommend the Beach Bunny for skatepark use. Look at the Panther or Jack for park skating.

Care

Avoid rolling through puddles, and check your wheels, trucks and toe stops are tight before each session. Clean your bearings when they start to slow down. Wipe the vinyl boots with a damp cloth.
