Target Skier: Upper intermediate females that have good form and don't hesitate too much when the conditions change or when more aggressive skiing is required. Features:
Color: Silver grey with white inserts and red wedges at midfoot. Buckles are silver.
Flex rating: 80 100mm last: A performance width for advanced recreational skiers all the way up to expert level skiers. This is also suitable for skiers with narrower than average feet. Bi component shell: Two different densities of plastic used to keep the boot stiff and able to perform at high speeds, yet softer in specific areas to make them easier to put on and take off. i-flex insert: A flexible plastic under the middle of the foot to allow the boot to flex as the ski flexes under pressure. This helps smooth out turns and returns energy back to the ski to help rebound into the next turn. Micro Mg Edge buckles: Racing style buckles made of Magnesium to give extra strength, but have a little bit of give to them to not interfere with the flex of the boot. Pre-wired heat system: This boot is pre-wired for Therm-ic brand boot heaters. All you need is the battery pack to plug in and clip to the back of the boot. Switch it on and your feet will be warm seconds later. Single Micro Excenter canting: Single canting on the outside of the ankle that will help correct an uneven ski platform. The adjuster stays right in the center, and pivots the boot without changing the fit or flex of the boot. Custom Comfort women's T1 liner: A plush liner with thick padding gives beginner to intermediate female skiers a comfortable boot. The lower cuff height gives extra room for the calf muscle that sits lower on the leg than mens'. Recco reflector: The Recco reflector system is a location device built into the back of the boot. This allows ski patrol a much greater chance of finding you if you get stuck in the well of a tree or buried in an avalanche. Its not as good as wearing an avalanche beacon, but its the next best thing. 35mm strap: Wider than average strap at the top of the boot to help keep the boot together and to give good performance while skiing. Atomic Hawx boots:The Hawx (pronounced 'hawks') series of boots are a little narrower than average, at 100mm, to give firm snow and all mountain skiers the support necessary to maintain control through ice and variable snow types. An insert under the middle of the foot actually lets the boot flex through a turn to help eliminate or reduce the dead/flat spot of the ski. The same feature gives spring back to the bindings to increase rebound to start the next turn. The Hawx series gives skiers that love to carve an advantage on firm snow as they maintain better edge hold through a turn. |
