Brighams are stocking them? That will be warps doing haha.

Its an interesting concept but it's not a ski boot haha. I have fitted a few and you can do barly anything. It's a snowboard boot so you can't really change it much. The frame that wraps it is not going to give muc stability. Even in the shop the thing was twisting. They are not for skiers. Tey are for those whis tourists who buy bognor and pretend to ski.

Not to mention that they have the longest BSL per mondo point in the history of the world- they are at least 20mm longer per size than a normal ski boot. Why anyone would want a bigger deadspot on their ski is beyond me, but then again people who this genuinely appeals to have no idea anyway.

They should rent these out at the ski shop I work at, too many people come down to lease skis and boots and measure a 26.5 and end up with a 28.5
