Hahaha didn't think anybody would be stoked on them besides me either...
Can't wait to have that extra burl on sketchy shit this season. Using quiverkillers to be able to swap between these and turntables on all my skis too so all binding issues = resolved! SO AMPED!
No, they're last year's models but sent back and refurbished with new toe pincer arms. Got them from a good friend at a price I couldn't say no to so really stoked for the extra confidence this year.
I'm using my Virus Tour IDs with them, as they blow my f'in mind. I will rock those boots till the wheels fall off, they are amazing and I love them in every way except the lack of buckle adjustability. They tour amazingly though- and on the flats I can get an extra maybe 6-10 inches of forward stride with them via the hinged tongue. A shorter top bail and a powerstrap and they'll be tits for this year. I. Can't. Wait.
Goddammit I'm stoked out of my face right now just thinking about it.
yes you're absolutely right, my bad. 12 lateral, 13 vertical... Got brainjammed writing 916 I guess. I only weigh ~165ish so the DIN is fine with me I just like the idea of more positive heel lock and beefier parts that somehow weigh less.
Still... I work at a machine shop and they are jewel-like in construction. The all-billet CNC parts are just so gorgeous. So clean, so burly... I'd probably be forced to get them even if they weren't better all around.
