By Cowman from Yakama, WA on 11/08/2009 Pros: Adjustability, Look Cool, Quality Construction, Very powerfull Best Uses: All Mountain, Racing Describe Yourself: Collegiate/Pro Sizing: Feels half size too big Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Says right on the side of the shell it has a flex index of 130. This is soft race
for comparison World Cup flex is 150+, intermedate flex 80 to 90, most expert flex 110 to 120. Has a 98mm forefoot width, which is on the narrow side. Should be sized down at least 1/2 to one full size for optimum performance.
This is a good boot for strong and/or heavy, athletic skiers.
Has a unique interchangeable sole system, also the calf/forward lean is ajustable via the spoiler and and screw on hardware.
By East Coaster from Annapolis, MD on 10/26/2009 Pros: Quality Construction Best Uses: All Mountain, Downhill Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: My first pair of Garmonts and they ended up being to tight right at the calf. Foot bed felt fine, but with the upper calf pinching they had to go. Ended up back with Salomon and their latest XC-10's.
Top Rated boot for backcountry By Facedocsg from Snowbird, Utah on 10/19/2009 Pros: Good for wide feet, Good Traction, Little flex, Quality Construction, Warm Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I purchased these boots because I wanted a stiff boot that I could use on or off piste. I also needed a boot that would accommodate wider feet. This boot fits both applications as well as achieved best of class in several reviews.
