Loaded with Shaun’s favorite features, this year’s boot is all-new and entirely upgraded. Shrinkage™ removes bulk (and weight) to eliminate excess toe and heel drag while the NEW articulating cuff allows for a smoother forward flex. The NEW hybrid cushioning systems blends monster truck-caliber shock absorption with go-kart style response. Even the smell is fresh thanks to the stench sucking power of Aegis™ antimicrobial.
- Aegis™ Antimicrobial Coating - This antimicrobial coating inhibits the growth of odor-causing bacteria. Your feet [and your friends] will thank us for sure. Look for Aegis™ on select liners and footbeds.
- Shrinkage Footprint Reduction Technology - Shrinkage™ reduces the boot’s overall footprint one full size, meaning a size 10 boot fits like a size 10, but has the footprint of a typical size 9. Shorter, lighter, and less bulky, with Shrinkage you can finally ride the board of your dreams.
- Articulating Cuff - Our articulating cuff creates fluid forward motion by allowing the upper and lower zones of the boot to flex independently, thus minimizing shell distortion and maximizing heel hold and response.
- Medium Flex Thin Profile 3D® Molded Tongue - Adjusting the profile of the tongue’s thickness controls its flex, enhances its ability to wrap the forefoot, and reduces shell/liner stack-up for improved comfort. Offered in soft, medium, and firm flexing options based on the ride style of each boot.
- Power Spine Backstays - We use a variety of single and dual-component Power Spine™ backstays throughout the line to fine-tune medial/lateral support, edge-to-edge response, and, most importantly, durability. For ultimate power, check out the NEW Dual-Axis Power Spine backstay on the Driver X™.
- New Hybrid Cushioning - Offering the best of both worlds, NEW Hybrid Cushioning places the dampening of B3 Gel on top of the responsiveness and impact-absorption of an airbag. But we didn’t stop there. Designed around the demands of riders like Shaun White and Kelly Clark, the airbag features a higher PSI rating for pro-caliber cushioning, board feel, and response.
- Imprint™ 3 - NEW Focus Cuff Heel Hold System / Lightweight Power Panels / Sock Lock / Velcro Liner Closure / Level 2 Molded EVA Footbed with ESS Support Shank and Aegis™ Antimicrobial Coating / Heat-Moldable
- Support: 6 - Every boot we build rides differently. From the buttery-soft, progressive flex of the Hail™, to the lightning-fast response of the Driver X™, we fine tune the ride of every single boot to provide the widest range of performance in snowboarding. We determine a boot’s support rating based primarily on the flex characteristics of the shell, outsole, and liner materials. Additional features like articulating cuffs, strategically placed shell paneling, 3D® molded tongues, and backstay constructions allow us to adjust the overall support. Based only as a comparison between the boots within our line, a rating of one is more relaxed while ten is more responsive.
