98mm last: Forefoot width of 98mm for racing performance, not as concerned about comfort, although modern boots do a great job of keeping their performance boots quite comfortable.
Target Skier: Advanced to Expert: These boots are stiff enough and performance oriented enough, that we would recommend them to advanced skiers who will be aggressively skiing the whole mountain. Beginners should look elsewhere!
80 Flex Index: This boot has a flex rating of 80, which is moving out of the softer-entry level boots and into the stiffer more advanced ski boots. A boot of this flex is appropriate for a wide range of skiers, from lower intermediates looking to improve to expert skiers who want a more casual flex.
Memory Fit Shell And Liner: This boot can be fully personalized at using Atomic's Memory Fit System to mold the shell, cuff and liner in just minutes. If you are looking for a custom fit, you couldn't ask for more than this.
Tongue Pull: A loop of fabric at the top of the tongue helps in putting on and removing the boots. Pull it forward and to the side and your foot should slide right in.
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.
Replaceable Toe and Heel Pads: This is a must-have for skiers that don't live in ski in/ski out condos. When your ski tech tells you that you have to buy new boots because the soles are worn down too much, just laugh at him and tell him to order you a new set of sole plates.
Edge 7000 Buckles: The Edge 7000 buckles are highly durable yet lightweight curved buckles with wide levers for easier opening and closing of the buckles. Each of these buckles is micro-adjustable, and the ladder of the top buckle adjusts to different sizes on the fly, without needing to remove the rivet.
Progressive Shell Technology: A revolutionary shell construction that reduces weight by 25% for increased agility and snow feel while reinforcing key zones for stability and power transmission.
Energy Backbone: This boot features a reinforced, asymmetric backbone that provides extra strength and edge grip for powerful skiing.
3M Thinsulate Insulation: A lightweight, completely re-engineered liner with 3M Thinsulate Insulation keeps feet warm and responsive even in extremely cold and damp conditions. Thinsulate Platinum surrounds the whole foot while standard Thinsulate is placed in the toe box only.
