3 out of 5 Flex Rating (Flow): Flow rates its boots' stiffness on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the stiffest and most built for speed hairy terrain. 1 would be a softy lightweight boot good for beginners and boarders who just want to mess around in the park a bit and need a comfy boot. This boot is rated 3 out of 5, which splits that difference exactly, making this a pretty versatile boot for cruising around the whole mountain, maybe some park, maybe some powder, whatever's clever, man. Removable Liner: This boot comes with a removable liner. Removable liners have the advantage of being easier to dry than non removable liners, and the disadvantage of usually being a little larger than a non removable linered boot of the same size. Articulated Heel Cuff: The top of the cuff on the back of the leg allows for flexing backward for more comfortable walking and backseat riding. EVA Footbed: A standard foam footbed that molds to the shape of the foot with pressure and normal use. Liner Lace Lock: This liner features a lace lock to speed up the process of putting boots on. Just pull the lace tab upward until snug, then slide the lace lock down into place. It will ensure the boots stay snug throughout the day. When the day is over, just pull up on the lock knob and slide the foot out. Piece of cake! Long Life Tread: Rubber sole that has a high wear, so it will outlast the treks across the mile long parking lots. Anatomically Fitted and Shaped: This boot has areas of extra padding and an anatomically contoured shape to keep your heel in the heel pocket and to provide extra arch support (and shock absorption) for those who need it. Traditional Lace-up System: There is a reason why snowboard companies keep making traditional lace-up boots in the face of Boa and other speedlacing mechanisms: because they comfortable and allow you to tie your boots specifically as tight as you prefer. Soft Touch Laces: Softer material used so your hands and fingers don't get torn up while tightening the laces. Molded Tongue: Pre-formed tongues wrap around the foot and ankle to enhance the fit and eliminate the bulky feeling of a flat tongue. |
