News of Chad Hornish’s pro boot for IQON dropped and boy, are we excited for Chad! It’s been a long time coming and it couldn’t have happened to a better guy. We got an exclusive (and hush hush) first peak of his skates a couple months ago while he was visiting Los Angeles, which we can now share now that the cat’s out of the bag.
Chad’s boots are an ACT AG shell which come with Kizer Fluid frames, his pro IQON 60 mm / 90A wheels, MyFit moldable prime dual fit liners, Wicked Abec 9 bearings. You can find more about the skates on Powerslide’s website.
We’ll let Chad tell you the rest about his boots and this dream come true.

“I’m beyond excited to present – My first pro skate. A 25-year dream, finally a reality. Black with gold accents? To match the black shirt and gold chain I wear every day? Yes please. Built on the new IQON ACT AG boot (an instant classic and the most innovative hardboot ever) and set up with some legendary KIZER Fluids anti-rocker frames, plus a revised version of my 60mm 90A pro wheels in matching black and gold.“

“Every detail is true to my style and the way I skate. I’ve always loved hard boots skates made out of composite plastics. For my pro boots, I chose a bit softer material than was used on the original ACT for added flex, and I also chose a bit wider liner last to give more space and comfort for my feet.“


“Skating anti-rocker, and have always worn a gold chain, this has always been my dream setup, and finally it’s a dream come true. Hope you rock it with the same pride I do. Thanks for your support, it means the world to me.”
