Tecnica Tecnica Agent 80 2008

Overall

Overall I think these boots deserve an 8 because theyre not completely limited to the park, but you wont get far from it.

Performance

Even though they caused me a lot of pain I really enjoyed the performance of these boots. Although theyre very soft you can still get decent energy out of them while carving off of jumps. Also the footbeds in them reduced heel pressure on hard landings relatively well.

Design

I really like the looks of these boots. They kept it simple yet still gave it enough style to appeal to "newschool" skiiers. Also the cuffs are on hindges. That just makes entry and exit that much easier.

Value

I paid $240.00 USD for these boots. Aside from the pain they were worth every penny.

Fit

My bootfitter said that they "fit my foot well" however by the end of the second day I used them I had horrible shin bang. I got it every day I skiied after that and it progressively got worse. They fit narrow though so the bottom area was pretty good.

Characteristics

Given that the agent 80 has a very soft flex, it can still preform relatively well on the rest of the mountain.

Durability

The toe and heel piece held up perfectly but the liners packed out a bit. Be prepared to put some intuitions in there.
