As the stiffest women-specific offering in Tecnica’s touring-specific Zero G line, the Women’s Zero G Scout Tour Boot provides the performance you need to slay steep, technical descents, but doesn’t compromise a bit when it comes to the climb, either. With an impressive 55-degree cuff rotation in walk mode and Tecnica’s new Double Blocking Mobility Cuff System, a lever that engages at the cuff and lower part of the shell to reduce play and increase stability in ski mode, you’ll move efficiently on the climbs without any loss of efficiency on the descents. The boot’s medium last is generous enough to remain comfortable during long tours without compromising performance, while the stiff 115 flex is most suitable for hard-charging lady rippers who require reliable power transfer to maneuver their sticks.
The Grilamid shell keeps the Zero G Scout ultralight without sacrificing any of the boot’s necessary stiffness, and utilizes Tecnica’s Custom Adaptive Shape shell design, which is anatomically shaped to match your foot, featuring dimples on the shell that makes customization easier for your boot fitter. Inside the boot, the ultralight liner is equipped with laces so you can dial perfectly dial in the fit and the feel every time you step into the boot. To prevent wet, cold feet, the liner also boasts a waterproof, breathable membrane, keeping you out longer on days when the powder is deep. And, since it’s rare you’ll ever go a season without an icy bootpack to get to the soft, powdery goods, the rockered sole is outfitted with sticky, durable Vibram rubber to ensure you always have a secure grip.

As most women know, backpacks are often the unfortunate victim of the pink-and-shrink laser beam. However, designers over at Osprey heard the call for a functional, women-specific touring backpack, and answered with the Kresta 30 Backpack. And in typical Osprey fashion, the Kresta has just the right amount of features necessary for a day of touring in the alpine without skimping on the overall fit or functionality.
More specifically, this pack is fashioned with a women-specific Light Wire suspension system that when combined with the padded help belt and stabilization straps, provide a comfortable and pressure-free haul. The thermoformed, contoured back panel sheds snow easily, and ultimately reduces the build-up of frozen precipitation on your backside. Not to mention, a deployable helmet net makes carrying your helmet a breeze, and the tuck-away ice tool loop ensures you’re able to haul technical tools without worrying about losing them en route.
In keeping with its versatile construction, the Kresta boasts a horizontal snowboarding carrying feature, or if you’re of the dual-planked nature, it also touts an A-frame or diagonal ski carrying design. Though, perhaps most importantly, the Kresta has a J-shaped avalanche gear compartment, complete with dry pocket, so you’re not only able to access your safety gear in a flash, but you’re also able to separate your sensitive avy gear from wet skins or damp clothing. A back panel entry system enables you quick access to snacks or extra layers, and all of the Kresta’s zipper pulls, as well as buckles, are glove and mitten friendly.
When the holiday crowds roll in to the resorts you’ve got no problem walking uphill to score your own silky smooth pow turns. Pull on your Dynafit Women’s Radical Ski Boots, walk past the pow-thirsty weekend warriors throwing elbows in the lift line, and head out of bounds to the untouched peaks calling your name.
These comfort-oriented boots offer a more forgiving flex and a wider fit than most of Dynafit’s uphill dominating kicks, so your feet won’t suffocate while you’re wandering the hills in search of fresh lines, and the liner can be molded to your feet for a more precise fit. The 60-degree range of motion in walk mode gives you a natural and efficient stride on the skin track, while rubber outsoles hold traction on slick surfaces to keep you upright on icy bootpacks and treacherous parking lot barbecues.

Scarpa’s Gea Alpine Touring Boot is already a best-seller due to its proven design at an affordable price, and while some ski companies simply change the color of ski boots each season, Scarpa made the Women’s Gea Alpine Touring Boot better than ever for the new season. This year, the Gea is remarkably lighter, comfier, and more secure than ever before. A 100 flex and 101mm last make it a great option for skiers taking their first tour into the backcountry, but it’ll also serve lighter veterans who value comfort over precision.
Scarpa updated the Gea with a Grilamid construction to ensure long-lasting stiffness and durability without much weight—it’s not as stiff or light as carbon, but that’s how Scarpa kept the price down on this boot. The tongue is still flexible Pebax to ensure a smooth, progressive forward flex during the descent. Other updates include a thermo-moldable Intuition liner that boot-fitters can heat up to mold to your foot’s exact shape for even more comfort, and the Vibram rubber sole has a new tread pattern specifically designed for rocky summits. The Speedlock Plus ski/walk mode is also new for this season and is designed to reduce play between the shell and cuff for a more rigid feel while you ski.
The Arc’teryx Procline collection consists of highly technical ski boots built to balance uphill and downhill performance. Unlike any other alpine touring boot, the Proclines provide a 360° rotation in walk mode for an amplified performance on the climb whether you’re skinning, boot packing, or even ice climbing. The Women’s Procline AR Carbon Alpine Touring Boot is the stiffest boot in the Procline collection designed for women. A carbon cuff not only achieves a stiffer flex than the original Procline AR, it’s also a lighter option, making it better for the uphill as well as the downhill.
Arc’teryx designed this Procline with a narrow 98mm last to provide a precise performance and quicker side-to-side transitions. The gaiter includes reliable waterproofing over the SoftStretch material and zippered closure. Underfoot, Vibram rubber grants this boot incredible traction on rock, ice, and snow, and the sole’s compatible with tech bindings. Arc’teryx redesigned the power strap and pivot-point washers for improved security and overall durability.
When you’re touring and you flick this it’s amazing the range of motion obviously that you have without undoing. That top class so it’s very precise for. Where you want to put your foot but feels really freaked she’s good i guess if you can do this if you want and you loosen it rights up when you’re throwing to it makes it even easier the side. To side motion business and kind of see. Here it’s on an angle makes it better yeah i like that i just. Kind of want to see if snow entry is any. Issue with this it’s a mountaineering boot so times are gonna happen when you do get off your skis obviously and start. Postholing up there’s something nasty and big i don’t know if he’ll be full walk mode like this or not but likely so. You can see i mean that keeps a lot of the snow out which is really nice that tall boots all gator and then. There’s that cuff area so without doing. Anything to it i just clamp that yep. Clamps i don’t think i can feel it but it’s in. There it’s definitely in there so i. Don’t know yeah but other than that i. Mean boots sure does skin nice that’s very comfortable and free feeling and. Light and on off-camber type stuff it. Sure allows you to keep a full skin contact if you choose so yeah so far so. Good okay so now it’s time for the book. Review inside instead of in the rain so. There it is size 27 and there’s our weight pretty. Simple little scale one boot 1.3 6. Kilograms so super light obviously. Especially when you’re looking at something that is as strong as skiing boot as it is so that’s nice so good weight on the boot now, and we look at the liners you’ll see there are two liners that this boot is using this. Is the support liner the support liner. Are they’re stronger liner it’s nice just. A good flex motion in the back of flexes. Going in the back so you can get lots of easily easy angulation with this boot is. The cuff of the boot certainly allows it, so we don’t want the liner to restrict that different densities of foam nice. And stiff through the top and the tongue so lots of support through their nice moldable down through the bottom which is great and then obviously our character being a mountaineering company they’re thinking about using liners like this if you have to be drawing your liners you’re wearing them alone not in a boot you can see you’ve got a rubber. Bottom to that boot which is going to. Give you a lot better traction if necessary but just durability as well so. Into the actual boot itself the plastics this is where all the magic is in this boot a few things that i really. Like i love how dry this boot is with this. Zipper that does up from the front of the boot it keeps this entire structure. Quite watertight as you can see that you. Tough and that gator around the top it’s going to keep a lot of snow out so when you have that boot opened and you are in tour mode and a lot of other boots you. Collect a lot of snow through here through buckles and into the boot so you have a lot of water entry into this whole boot system that’s not the case with this. Which is really nice to see it’s in front of the boot as you can see has the rubber rand to it that’s a thermoformed. Rand it’s not going to pull away from that gives you much better durability. And some add its stickiness if you are. Climbing and using this boot from a mountaineering standpoint to have a hard. Plastic toe that can skate off is not a. Good scenario so having this is going to make a big difference for people its ultimate comfort when they are climbing and not using it with their skis and you. Can see it’s a very burly soul the soul that’s on there is not one of these super lightweight soles that’s going to. Disintegrate in one season of use that’s. A full proper vibrational go it’s a. Mountaineering sole great to see that. Obviously works with pins it’s what it’s made for it’s the only way it’s going to work but from a standpoint of moving in. The mountains it’s great to have that security on your feet so all in all i. Have to say that our caraxes nu pro kline. Boot walks as i would expect it to walk. And skis much better so i think it’s. Going to be it’s its definitely worthy of carrying the arc’teryx name hope you enjoy it.
Greetings from the drezna hut we’re high up in the stew buyouts weren’t we’re just here for a few days testing the new arc’teryx pro klein carbon light ski tour okay first acquaintance it’s a. Funny-looking thing it’s got fully dinner fit compatible pin binding. Inserts I’ve gone for a vibram rubber on there so it’s got a plastic shell but the upper this is actually the shell here this is just a nylon cuff really lightweight cup but unzips to reveal the. Aligner inside this is the light liner. This is the most sort of agile. Compromise between lightweight flexibility and ski touring and ability uphill from ounce an earring but also giving enough support for the downhill performance you can get a support liner that’s a much beefier thing with a much more supportive tongue to upgrade the. Skiing characteristics of the boot most. Amazing thing about this boot is this carbon cuff it’s absolutely incredibly high-tech feature they put a very cunning bushing. Between here and the aramid shall the other thing is that the cuff is an integral part of the water-ski mechanism, so we’ll see later on when we get on the slopes the incredible skinning and cramp on in capability of. This boot but when we want to lock it down into ski mode it’s simply locates. These lugs with one single click. The amazing thing about these boots is. That when you pull them into walk mode. And they release you don’t have to. Bother undoing all the rest of the boot when we’re skinning on i see Travis is when we scramble up rocks or when. We’re come putting on hard i see slopes, but we can keep it beautifully tightly. Done up so the foot stays solid in the boot ordinarily in a ski touring boot. You only get flexibility for a raft but with this incredible cuff design you get a little bit of flexibility side to side we’re actually able to roll the skis a. Little bit over onto their side like that now that’s great of course both. When we’re skinning on an icy Travis to get a better grip with the skins it’s also great when we crump on him being able to get the points of our crampons into the slope course what you really. No using flexibility where suddenly. When you’re skinning your really only. Limited by the flex in your ankle not flexing the boot at all. This week we’ve skied absolutely icp. Star-crossed trod which gets a really. Beautiful soft snow the biggest compliment i can give these boots is that they’re utterly forgettable I’ve never once had to think about what i had on my feet now actually given the challenging conditions we’ve had that really is a complement indeed now i ski. This size of boot in just about every other brand but putting these on the first thing that strikes me is just how small and precise they are now around the heel that’s a really good thing because it means there’s absolutely no lift no slippage and no rubbing when you’re skinning but across the front of the boot it just means that they’re really super tight now if they fit the shape of your firm that will be fantastic, and they really are a precise fitting boot so if you were going to buy a pair of these boots buy them from a really good quality boot fitter get a shell that fits you nice as snug and make sure they fit them out properly for you arc’teryx if you’re going to make a boot this narrow and this much of a precision fit can we have a wide version please.

Coming in at just over three pounds per boot, it will barely add to the weight of your setup as you suffer up steep skinners. A boot this stiff handles your most proud lines like a champ, from narrow, remote chutes to wide-open bowls of pristine powder. Tecnica built this boot on a mid-sized 99-millimeter last that offers a performance fit for standard-width feet.
Different from the previous versions of the Zero G, this rendition is more of a true backcountry boot, with a slightly lighter weight, an impressive 55-degree range of motion in walk mode and double-blocking system that increases stability in ski mode, rockered Vibram rubber soles for impressive grip on slick bootpacks, and extra-light buckles that stay latched when you’re skinning to reduce in-boot friction that can lead to blisters. The boot’s shell uses Tecnica’s C.A.S. system, which employs a dimple structure to make heating and punching faster and more effective for bootfitters. Practically a roadmap for bootfitters, C.A.S. identifies your foot’s hot spots and pressure points with ease, and paired with the Ultrafit Pro Light liner, you’ll stay comfortable, even after you hours on the skintrack.
Hey my name’s carter brown I’m here with technical we’re an outdoor retailer with back country skiing canada I’m gonna talk to you guys about the new zero-g guide throw this is our new back country. Touring specific ski boot we decided to. Build this boot and come up with this ski boot we’re an alpine brand we wanted.

Range with a range of motion and all the options that are really, so we’ve got a. New ninety-nine millimeter last really low volume in the heel and ankle great fit 44 degrees range of motion coming in. At about fifteen hundred and forty grams. Fully interchangeable solos allows you come with a rockered 18 so allows you. To add in seoul on the bottom really. There’s nothing else out there that’s like if there’s nothing else out there that hits this range of motion. This weight that allows you to put ad insole on to have four buckles into the traditional overlap construction. We’re really pumped about it we feel it really provides true downhill skiing experience but at a really unbelievably. Kind of lightweight. We also have kind of the little brother. Called the code the zero-g guide that. Comes in out of the 110 flex right around sixteen hundred and fifty grams same basic food is this yorgi guide pro. Just a little bit heavier a little softer plastic yeah you know and a. Little bit lower price point great for that person that really doesn’t want to spend a ton of money wants a great performing a great skiing. Series of boots we think it’s going to be a unique offering out there’s a. Lot of people that are really looking for this type of boot maybe coming from an alpine background that want the fit and feel and function of their ski boots we want something that’s gonna be really liked and allowed to use tech bindings yeah it’s so really going to perform like they’re out on booze.
Hey it’s brad from back country skiing. Canada calm today we’re gonna talk about the technical zero-g guide pro boot this. Is a new boot from technical it weighs in at 1524 grams are three point three six pounds and that’s for the size twenty-six and a half so a relatively lightweight boot considering it’s a four buckle overlap construction boot comes in different sizes twenty-two and a half to thirty and a half in half sizing all the way up and it’s got a. Really respectable cuff rotation of 44 degrees given that it is an overlap construction boot the flex is rated at. 130 feels more like a 120 when you’re skiing in the boot however and it’s built on a ninety-nine millimeter laughs so the special things about the new. Zero-g guide pro are cas shell you can. See in the shell along the front here. And the side as well as the other side in two locations as well that it’s got these dimples built into the shell basically these are the location of problem areas for people when their boot fitting so with this the dimples in the shell you’ve got less surface tension so it’s easier punch out for the boot fitters the shell is made out of a by. Injected triax 3 which is said to be 30%. Thinner than traditional materials 18%. Lighter and two and a half times stiffer and this is a fairly stiff boot at 120. Considering that it’s a alpine slash touring boot the liner itself is a heat. Foldable blue liner and it’s got some. Good shin support there’s actually a velcro add-on that you can add in that i ski with and it’s got minimal seams as. Well it’s also very light a very warm liner I’ve been skiing this. Boot in the last few weeks it’s been -20 at the hill and my toes were getting. Cold but not as cold as i should have given the temperatures so it’s very thick comfortable liner and almost too warm on warm days but nice on the colder days the cuff is made out of a light. Grid triax 3 and it’s got strategic. Cutouts in the cuff itself so it will be the power strap get in here and have a. Look at it. So you can see these strategic cutouts here in the cuff and that again lightens. Up the shell overall the other thing to. Note about the zero-g guide pro is it’s. Got replaceable sol blocks it’s also got. Tech fittings so you can use them with tech bindings for touring and one of the coolest features that i love is the lift lock buckles so when you’re buckling. Your boot unbuckling your boot traditionally these get relaxed on always when you’re trying. To take the boot off but if you just pull the buckles back you can see that they flip back and out of the way and then when you’re ready to buckle up again you just pull them in and away you go so lots of cool little features overall. I’ve been skiing this boot for the last few weeks and I’ve been skiing at the. Resort it’s a great resort boot fairly light nice walk mode on the back here to go to walk and ski mode very easy to do. So you can walk around the resort and also to go touring in it you know it’s not the lightest touring boat out there but it can tour and it really does well at the resort so it’s kind of crossover boot for both aspects of skiing and I’ve been skiing this for a few weeks and been really happy with it the fit in the comfort nice stiff boot for the hill and it can still tour which is a good feature so gives you that versatility of skiing half-day the resort half-day in the back country it. Also comes in a zero-g guide the non pro. Version that comes in a 110 flex and it’s 1700 grams so a little bit lighter but it’s also a little bit cheaper at $660 and it also is available for women. So this version the pro version the zero. G guide pro is $900 u.s. so a little bit. More expensive than the non pro version but you will have some weight savings so. Overall great fitting boot nice warm liners stiff good for resort skiing and. It can also tour as well it’s gonna be beefy for people that like a stiffer boot at the resort and still light enough with a respectable walk mode for people that want to go touring occasionally on it overall if you’re. Looking for a nice new boot consider the technical zero-g guide pro or the zero-g. Guide without the pro yeah for more boat reviews go to back country skiing canada comm and for everything else back country you’ll find it there as well thanks.

This is a quick review of auto boxes free-rider 26 back country backpack which. I’m having to return to the supplier after only two days use due to been dissatisfied with the quality and having safety concerns the first problem comes. With how you secure the snowboard. Vertically using these upper and lower. Fastening straps its difficult to cinch. Tight these straps once they are. Fastened you have rather you have to put. The snowboard on attach the straps then. If there’s any slack undo the straps take your best guess on how tight they should be reattached them hopefully by the third time the board will be secure. Enough but that’s kind of redundant. Because after only 20 minutes whether you’re just walking or hiking the board. Those straps start to come loose and the. Board starts swaying left and right the. Second problem i found was with the helmet net once the board is secured. Vertically you can then you then have the option of securing the helmet net above that the problem lies in two areas. The first is with these brittle plastic. Clips on each corner of the net that. Used to go into the upper and lower. Loops with the snowboard in place these loops sits inset beneath the snowboard. So these clips have to stretch around. And attach into those loops which puts a. Lot of pressure on this inferior plastic. And then the second problem is with the. Lower loop material themselves they. Don’t seem to have taken into account that snowboards have edges sharp edges at that and already after only a few. Hours hiking this material has already started to fray and will eventually fail. I imagine on the second day of my hike i. Was about thirty minutes from the peak. Suddenly i hear my snowboard helmet falling down into a bowl beneath me. Because one of these clips broke i then. Had to get on my snowboard to take a line i didn’t particularly want to take to retrieve the helmet which was. Something i would consider unsafe the. Third problem was with the stitching. Already on day to the left the right. Hand strap lower strap used to secure. The snowboard the stitching has already. Started to come away it hasn’t happened on the opposite side yet but I’m sure it’s just a matter of time other than that the navigate compartment is nice and roomy roomier than other packs I’ve. Reviewed the spine protector. Although adequate could really be extended beneath and above to it to. Protect other parts of the spine the. Waist chest and arm straps are all very. Good but i wouldn’t really recommend buying this pack as it just doesn’t seem to have been field-tested or despite the. High price bracket and the various. Endorsements and reviews thanks.
The free rider 26 abs mass pack the only. Bag on them are removable abs system so put the pack and. You’ve got your storage for you shovel probe open up into there it is the same. System same kind of step just attach red. Strip. Kind of top. There it is and then you’ve also got man. To carry sack just to keep this safe when you’re using the backpack of the conventional backpack pack itself is. Around sooner half kilos. Spock spock another benefit the free rider pack comes with its own detachable spine guard that you can use on its own. Without that same system.

DPS’s Women’s Nina 99, adored by many women for its versatile yet powder-hungry shape, is now offered with the lightweight Tour1 construction, creating a backcountry-specific ski that’s ready for all the ups and downs. Weighing in at just over 5 pounds per pair, it’s obvious why the ski is an uphill machine, yet its combination of shape and construction maintain fantastic downhill performance.
The 99 millimeter waist provides just enough float in deeper snow, but not so much that you can’t rip through harder snow or spring corn with nimble ease. A rockered tip and tail make skiing in powder feel effortless, while camber underfoot adds reliable edge hold and energy through each turn. The Tour1 construction features a carbon and fiberglass laminate, keeping the ski remarkably skiff so you can plow through variable backcountry conditions at high speeds without flopping tips and teeth-chattering vibrations. A balsa wood core works to further dampen vibrations and maintain the overall stiffness of the ski, still preserving the playfulness and pop that makes each turn enjoyable.
With an updated liner and integrated RECCO technology, the Scarpa Women’s F1 Alpine Touring Boot is now more equipped than ever to tackle long slogs, steep ascents, and any terrain you point your tips at when it’s time to descend. A BOA dial and single buckle let you milk every ounce of power transmission from the 95 flex, and really lock down the fit, with a generous 102-millimeter last to keep the balance between lasting comfort and optimal performance. In walk mode, the F1 boasts a flexible 62-degree range of motion, with an easy, reliable lever as your ticket to going from skintrack-setting speed machine to hop-turning down a tight chute.
The F1’s shell is constructed from strong, lightweight Grilamid with an over-injected carbon insert to further stiffen the boot and improve the overall power transmission and responsiveness to the ski. Inside the shell, the updated, women-specific Intuition liner is sculpted at the cuff to aptly accommodate the shape of a woman’s calf, and can be fully thermo-molded for a blend of performance fit and comfort. The collar strap boasts integrated RECCO technology, a search system that’s widely used by mountain rescue in emergencies, and a Vibram UFO EVO sole offers dependable traction on rocky terrain or icy bootpacks.

The DPS Women’s Yvette 112 Tour 1 Ski is a lightweight fatty designed to help you set the skintrack on a deep powder day, and enjoy the fluffy ride back to the car. Its wide waist keeps you afloat only when you want to, since you also prefer sinking down into snorkel-like depths about half the time on the downhill. You like sinking down on the downhill almost as much as you dislike sinking down on the uphill, which makes the Yvette’s rockered, shoveled, and wider tip all the more enjoyable. It keeps your nose above the snow so you can navigate switchbacks a little easier. This Yvette comes with DPS’s lightest construction to keep you nimble on you feet, and considering each ski weighs less than three pounds, you might end up one of the lightest skier in the backcountry.

Just wrapping up a week of fun ski touring and want to talk to you about the tour one waner 112 we’ve been. Checking out for the weekend for. Most of the season actually the tour one. Is one of three constructions options. Offered by dps you also have a pure. Three which is a stiffer somewhat heavier ski and a hybrid which is has. Some carbon but more traditional construction as well this is new this year I’d have to say the most remarkable thing about the thing about it is its weight the weight for the tour one is. Only one thousand five hundred and. Fifty grams and that’s for 184 ski this. Is the 184 ski that we have here let’s remarkably light especially with a benefit binding as we have them here just saying a little bit about the dimensions 141 at the tip 112 here and. 126 excuse me 128 here we’ve also reviewed. The regular construction of the winter. 112 if you’d like to see that review check it out right here so what’s. Different about the tour one construction is its it’s also a prep reg. Carbon glass fiber laminate construction. Unlike the regular winter 112 there’s a. Full cap here you can see here and there’s a balsa core and textured. Polymide talk is what the top sheet is. And also like many dps skis they call. This paddle tech which means it’s wider. At this point here so we’ve had a. Variety of conditions here at boulder. Hut over the week and this is a perfect. Ski for good conditions it’s outstanding. On the up track because it’s remarkably light like way lighter than anything. That i personally have ever skied. But when you get into hard pack. Conditions or gender. You know breakable cross stuff like that it might not be the ski to go with but. In the powder that we’ve had this week it was awesome and it’s a great. All-around ski so again this is the dps. Winner 112 tours one and just saying now. It comes in a 168 a 184 and a 190 cm i. Wouldn’t recommend this as a one quiver.

A new style by La Sportiva, the Women’s Stellar Alpine Touring Boot is lightweight and mobile, designed for everyday ski mountaineering and entry-level skimo races. Its 90 flex caters to intermediate to lighter-weight expert lady shredders, while the generous 102-millimeter last accommodates wider feet and delivers a comfort-oriented fit.
You can expect uphill efficiency out of the Stellar, thanks to its 68-degree range of motion in walk mode. The Grilamid shell keeps the boot light, adding to its climb-ability, but also serves to give you a strong, stable feel when it comes time to descend. La Sportiva’s unique Spider Buckle Evo Closure System makes it easy to get a precise, customized fit for optimal power on the down and comfort on the up. And, when it comes time to boot up the last stretch of icy, exposed ridgeline to the summit, you’ll appreciate the grippy rubber sole.
Replace or upgrade your old worn-out soles on your alpine ski boots with the Scarpa Women’s Vibram Mountain Plus Sole. This sole features a co-injected steel plate for a more powerful and reliable connection than most soles, and the rubber heel has a special lug design to give you an excellent grip on any terrain. Scarpa designed this sole specifically for snowy situations because it reduces snow buildup so well. This sole is compatible with all of the AT and Quick Step-In system bindings on the market.
Roxa’s Women’s RXW 1.0 Alpine Touring Boot won’t weight you down on long, steep climbs, and won’t have you questioning its reliability when it’s time to transition and ski your line. Its 98-millimeter last accommodates narrow to medium-width feet for a performance-first fit, and its sub three pound weight and generous 62° range of motion will have you strolling up steep skinners and tackling long approaches with impressive ease.
The RXW 1.0’s ski-walk mode is reinforced with carbon, making transitions easy and reducing play on the descent, while the lightweight Grilamid shell offers dependable power transfer to drive your skis down the line you worked so hard to get to. Roxa’s foam-based, touring-specific liners place an emphasis on comfort, and can be easily thermo-molded for a customized fit, and the boot’s women-specific cuff has a slightly lower height and scalloped shape to better accommodate the shape of your calf.
Your penchant for human-powered descents may lead some to call you a glutton for punishment, but that could have something to do with the fact that they’ve never skied the La Sportiva Women’s Maximo LS Ski. With a lightweight construction that will fly up steep skintracks like you’re on an escalator and a fun-having progressive shape, this ultralight offering from La Sportiva will keep a smile plastered on your face whether you’re skinning to the base of a steep couloir or making hop turns down a line you’ve been dreaming about skiing all season.
La Sportiva teamed up with with Italy’s Ski Trab to produce the Maximo LS. Building its skis in Italy, Ski Trab specializes in ultralight backcountry skis that inspire confidence on the descent. Utilizing Ski Trab’s 14-layer Technology, the Maximo is home to a wood core with air canals to save weight and a stiff-but-light construction to keep the Maximo responsive when you’re confronted with less-than-ideal conditions. Adding to the ski’s overall skiability, La Sportiva commissioned the Maximo to be built with the Low Omega Profile, which makes initiating turns a breeze and reduces the chance of hooking up edges as you exit your turn, giving the skis a fluid, easy-to-ski feel when you’re making your way down techy lines in the alpine.
There are those that prefer a lightweight skin to the top over all else, including downhill performance, and then there are those that take La Sportiva’s Super Maximo LS Ski out for a tour and don’t have to choose. Built with SKI TRAB Lightweight Technology, the Super Maximo is both extremely lightweight yet rich with anti-torsional strength. The core is built from 14 different layers in order to reduce vibration, using lightweight wood interlaced with higher-strength wood, then reinforced with a fiberglass box. This process delivers both torsional rigidity and durability to an otherwise lightweight ride.
When it comes to downhill performance, the Super Maximo LS is well adapted to a wide range of snow conditions. It features La Sportiva’s progressive Attivo shape, well tuned for adept steering, floatability, and forgiving turn initiation. This innovative shape ensures gradual entry into fresh snow, yet provides plenty of contact on sun-affected crust. Plus, the 94mm waist underfoot is wide enough to handle last night’s big dump, yet narrow enough that it deals well with any wind-buffed slopes you might encounter on your way down.
The Women’s R3W 105 T.I. Alpine Touring Boot is Roxa’s most freeride-oriented ladies boot, designed for ripping chicks with an affinity for hard-earned turns. The flex of 105 is stiff enough to please the aggressive lady shredder, yet still comfortable and forgiving enough to keep your feet happy on the skin track.
The durable Grilamid shell keeps the weight down so you get on top of big objectives with enough gas in the tank to let it rip on the way down, and the Intuition liner is heat moldable so you can dial in the perfect fit. The Gripwalk soles add a little security to icy bootpacks, and with a 45-degree range of motion in walk mode, these boots allow you a comfortable and natural stride the whole way up.
Your penchant for human-powered descents may lead some to call you a glutton for punishment, but that could have something to do with the fact that they’ve never skied the La Sportiva Women’s Maximo LS Ski. With a lightweight construction that will fly up steep skintracks like you’re on an escalator and a fun-having progressive shape, this ultralight offering from La Sportiva will keep a smile plastered on your face whether you’re skinning to the base of a steep couloir or making hop turns down a line you’ve been dreaming about skiing all season.
