Head Raptor Ltd RS HF Pro

Sale: $199.00
Retail: $840.00

These boots are a limited edition run of the Raptor RS 115, which means they have the 98mm RS last, and an adjustable flex rating of 105/115. The difference between this boot on the RS 115 is simply cosmetic--whereas those boots were made to look like Race Team boots (with the Race Dept. buckles and color scheme), the Raptor Ltds have a freeride styling. A stiff, high performance poly-urethane shell is translucent enough to let the Heatfit PRO liner shine through underneath. These boots have one feature that the regular RS 115s do not have, which is two extendable power buckles, which give you leverage to help snap down the buckles easier. Not a major feature, but definitely a bonus. We recommend these for skiers from anywhere from advanced to the professional level.
Appropriate ability levels. The L9 Listers say: Big Mountain Charger The L9 team says: Race Worthy

105/115 Adjustable Flex Rating: At this level, we are teetering on the precipice between consumer level boots and race-team boots. These boots are still on the consumer side, but they are certainly high performance enough for pretty much any racing program that you or your child may be in.

Atomic 98 Last98mm last: Forefoot width of 98mm offers an expertly performing low-volume fit. Boots of this last width can run the gamut from very tight fitting to reasonably comfortable, but they will all fit much much tighter than a rental or intermediate boot.

HeatFit PRO: Self molding inserts throughout the boot, including the tongue and above the heel pocket, help this liner give you a custom fit without ever having to visit a bootfitter. This liner is associated with boots in the performance to professional category, so comfort level is still an important part of the makeup of this liner.

Shock Absorber Heel: An insert in the heel absorbs shock from harsh, jolting terrain, and helps cushion big air landings.

40mm strap: Super wide strap found on high performance boots. The extra width spreads out the force while skiing and reduces the pressure point on the upper shin.

Racing Flex Adjustment: The flex setting of this boot can be adjusted very precisely to any stiffness within its range. High performance skiers can dial in the exact stiffness that they desire.

FIS Approved: This boot conforms to the boot sole thickness regulations set forth by FIS. This means that when you are good enough to compete and win, they won't tell you its just because of your boots.


heatfit linerDouble Power Buckles: Some of the buckles on this boot (usually the top 2) have a metal flip-out that can be extended to give the skier more leverage when clamping it down.

RD/RS liner shell combo: Head's RD and RS boots are serious performance boots, but the fit is more comfortable than the forefoot width would indicate. The liner is compressed so that it will not be as bulky and pack out less than a lower end boot.
