Why Every Skater in Australia Needs Medical-Grade Gel Bunga Pads
Why Every Skater in Australia Needs Medical-Grade Gel Bunga Pads
Figure skating is one of the most beautiful sports in the world, but every skater knows that with elegance comes hours of training — and sometimes, painful feet. Blisters, bruised ankles, and rubbing inside tight boots can turn even the most exciting session into a challenge. That’s where medical-grade Gel Bunga Pads step in, offering comfort, protection, and support for skaters of all ages and levels across Australia.
What Are Bunga Pads?
Bunga Pads are premium ankle sleeves lined with high-quality mineral oil gel, designed to cushion sensitive areas of the foot and ankle. They help reduce friction, absorb shock, and protect against pressure points inside your skating boots. Skaters worldwide — from beginners to professionals — trust Bunga Pads for their proven comfort and durability.
At Twizzle Galleria, we stock the original, USA-made Bunga Pads so that Australian skaters have access to the same medical-grade protection trusted internationally.
Why Skaters in Australia Love Them
1. Medical-Grade Protection
Unlike generic gel sleeves, Bunga Pads are made to medical-rehabilitation standards. This means they provide consistent support, are hypoallergenic, and can be safely worn for long training sessions.
2. Comfort for Long Hours on the Ice
Skating boots are stiff by design, but they often cause rubbing on the Achilles or ankle bones. Bunga Pads act as a soft barrier, letting skaters train longer without discomfort.
3. Washable & Reusable
Australian families appreciate value for money. Bunga Pads can be hand-washed and reused many times, making them a practical, long-term solution for everyday skating.
4. Versatile for All Skaters
While loved by figure skaters, they’re equally useful for speed skaters, roller skaters, hockey players, and even backpackers who need relief from boot pressure.
How to Use Bunga Pads
-
Slip the sleeve gently over the ankle or heel area before putting on your skates.
-
Position it where you normally experience friction, bruising, or rubbing.
-
Put on your skates as usual — the gel pad will stay in place throughout your session.
They are available in 5mm thickness, giving you extra cushioning without affecting the fit of your boots.
Skating in Comfort = Better Performance
Every skater knows that when your feet hurt, your technique suffers. By protecting your ankles with Bunga Pads, you can:
-
Focus on perfecting your jumps, spins, and edges.
-
Train longer with less distraction.
-
Build confidence heading into tests and competitions.
