Chassis

• 3D Skate: Injected plastic chassis, allows heel support and good torsional rigidity to optimize power transfer.
• Skating Flex: Control and power transmission with good lateral stability.
• Glassfiber Loaded: Made with injected fiberglass to maintain lightness, this material enhances the boot's mechanical properties, boosting rigidity in both torsion and flexion.

Climate Management

• ClimaSalomon™ Waterproof Membrane: Salomon’s highly waterproof ClimaSalomon™ WP Membrane tests at 100.000 mm on the Schmerber scale, where more than 30.000 mm is already considered suitable for extreme conditions.
• Waterproof Zipper: Designed to better protect your feet from snow and water, this waterproof zipper covers the laces and ensures your feet stay dry longer.

Cuff

• Glassfiber Loaded: Made with injected fiberglass to maintain lightness, this material enhances the boot's mechanical properties, boosting rigidity in both torsion and flexion.
• Energyzer 2.0: This cuff offers more back proprioception to help with balance. The back support lowers fatigue in difficult snow condition and helps you ski longer.
• EVA Pad: The EVA padding inside the cuff provides exceptional comfort while ensuring a maximum contact zone for precise control.
