Full Reviews
Had the opportunity to ski this boot for a few weeks last season and all I can say is that if you are looking for a hard charging, while still mobile touring boot that can also be skied in-bounds with ease - these boots are fantastic. This boot is strong and stable - giving you good stiffness at "130" - i'd say it's a truer 130 for the touring boot category, but not quite as stiff as a 130 in an alpine equivalent. It's comfortable - probably best in class for these boot types - really nice feel out of the box that did not wear down with use. Solid 4 buckle design that gives you the confidence to charge. The cam strap for the cuff strap is extremely burly and gives you that extra tension. Pair these with a Duke PT, Shift, Guardian, Baron, or Kingpin Binding and you've got yourself a quiver killer. I skied them with a K2 Mindbender 116 and Shifts and I felt like a hero,
