Product Details
Flex
Flex Rating (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) – 9, Very stiff boot that gives you precise handling and response
Fit
Articulating Cuff – The new shell construction creates a high-performing, smooth-flex boot that is easier to lace and has a significantly lower volume than standard construction. Also, it has a smooth, seamless inside without any sharp edges that could result in pressure points. On top of that, there is less shell distortion, resulting in a consistent heel hold through the full flex range.
Thermo-formed 3D tongue with seamless construction for an even, smooth flex
Quick-Strike Hook-and-Loop Fastener allows a snug fit at the cuff and adds a third zone of stability.
Extended sneaker-like fit with snowboard boot stability structure
Open cell PU foam cuff top to reduce pressure on the calf
Liner
Dynalite™ – The all-NEW Dynalite™ liners are designed to cling to the foot, even out pressure points and absorb the shock of impact by dispersing the energy throughout the body. The Dynalite™ liner is thirty-seven percent lighter than a regular liner, thus more comfortable for a longer period of time as it provides the optimum amount of compression. Dynalite™ is highly engineered foam with a consistent cell wall structure, uniform cell size and consistent cell shape, which allows it to recover to its original shape over 3 times better than conventional foam.
Asymmetrical Memory Foam C-Pads – Adjusts to the shape of the ankle, provides optimum heel fit and shield the ankle bone from unwanted pressure
Lacing System
Boa® Focus – Speed lace system with reels that allow for a precise fit in two zones
Footbed
ROLLBAR® Technology – Lightweight graphite stability posting system that provides optimal lateral forefoot, midfoot and medial heel support. It also transfers riding motions directly to the board and binding without reducing or interfering with comfort or dampening.
ABZORB® – High-end compression and cushioning foam with Engage® Isoprene rubber
Sole
Hybrid combination of New Balance's proprietary trail running outsole mixed with the added demands of snow, sleet, ice and binding traction
ROLLBAR® Outsole – Outsole extension to mitigate stability and traction control
Additional Features
Hidden RECCO® advanced avalanche rescue technology

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Flex Rating:
Very Stiff
More
Flex Rating
Very Stiff The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
