CARROLLTON, Texas--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Whether youare a kid or a kid at heart, Heelys is offering new ways to roll into the 2011 holiday season. U.S.-based [ Heelys, Inc. ] (NASDAQ: HLYS) announced today that it will offer new styles for children, tweens and teens, as well as expand its lineup to offer styles in Momas size. The new styles are available now in the [ Heelys Shop ] and in stores, just in time for the holiday season.

Heelys are the original shoes with wheels in the heels that allow the user to transition from a walk to a roll by shifting the weight to the heel. Users can also transform Heelys into street shoes by removing the wheels.

Heelys HX2 has two removable wheels in each shoe, making it ideal for younger kids and beginners. Not only is it easier to maintain balance, but the HX2 also does not require as much leg strength to lift up your toes to skate. When you get the hang of skating, convert the HX2 into a normal pair of Heelys by removing the front wheel. Pull out both wheels, and the HX2 becomes a normal pair of street shoes.

Exclusive to Heelys footwear, Nano is the first ever inline footboard. Nano provides a stable platform for your front foot, keeping your other foot free to build momentum, carve sharp turns and perform a wide variety of tricks. It combines the speed of a skateboard with the stealth and maneuverability of Heelys to create a whole new skate experience.
