so got to check out the new freeride boot, holy crap. blows all others out of the water. forgot the name, starts with an r or somethin. anyway, the lower shell is clear, with a black tounge/uppercuff. the clear matieral is a lil more flexible and dampening, plus you can see inside when your working on them. they have ID liners (YAY!), and the top buckle is replaced with this big leather strap, with a rachet on it. the way its set up, you can loosen it and its soft flexing witout loosing support, or tighten it when you wanna ski all mountain. sooo dope looking. looks so much better than the already amazing boot.

no pics. it was in person, and i didnt have a cam. picture the rampage, but instead of tan, its transucent/clear. now, instead of a top buckle, there is a leather support strap around the entire top, with a rachet buckle. the liner is a rather borring looking (but way better) ID liner.

ID liners are sooooo expensive, but worth every penny.

no way. the proton is the widest boot they make. its fuckin massive.

kryptons are narrowest, reflexes are mid width, protons are fat as hell. i work in a shop and we sell almost entirely dalbellos

kinda, but not really. like, theres a super thick strap that overlaps around the whole boot (instead of the plastic that usually wraps the front of the boot. its got a slaprachet that closes it.

compared to SPK...Foil....most of the boots salomon makes. My local shop sells Dalbellos too....and you need to have HUGE wide french men feet to really know what a wide boot is all about.

So its the same as the rampages but with a new upper strap an ID liners?  The big question is whether the fit will still be super narrow like all their other boots.
DALBELLO MAKE A WIDE VERSION!!!

When glen plake came to my ski hill two or three years ago he was testing a boot with the same liner. He said it was like his model coming out...sick
