Knowledge - boots

All boots come with a 3D molded shell tongue that offers a strong forward lean support and gives a proper fit to the boot. It’s perfect for directly transmitting energy from your foot to the board.

These allow the boot to have a more consistent flex, plus they avoid pressure points on the ankle when flexing forward.

The Ankle Flex Notch allows a boot to flex without distortion or pinching.

A foot is thinner on the lateral toe side than on the medial side. This is why our liners come with an asymmetric toe shape – for the perfect anatomic fit.

Entry-level liner for rookies learning the ropes, this pre-molded liner offers a super cozy fit.

LACE UP: Push the knob in and turn for an effortless tightening and a comfortable fit. UNLACE: Just pull the knob to pop and unlock. The Dynamic Closure system is a replaceable miniature high tensile stainless steel cable that runs through the lace guides with minimal friction for perfect pressure distribution and a micro-adjusting fit.

This is the fastest, most comfortable way to lace a BOA boot. The advantage of the Coiler is the integrated auto-tightening of the tension cable – it’s quick in and quicker out. You immediately have more comfort and control, which translates to higher performance.

A unique, centrally located cable routing system for the BOA boot that allows evenly distributed tightening to both the upper and lower sections of your boot.

The Double Power Strap is a unique feature developed by HEAD for improved power and support. By simply tightening the strap at the top of the boot, the nature of its design means the closure force doubles around your calf providing impressive calf hold and therefore adding awesome power to your turns.

To tighten, just pull the inner liner lace with just one hand... and it locks itself! To release, simply pull the tongue loop forward. It doesn’t get much easier than this.

This lightweight padding has been heat molded to follow the contours of the foot and ankle. It improves fit and flex while not compromising performance.
