Aside from the Tequila Sunrise graphic motif, testers love the way this boot stands and moves—tall on the leg and upright but with a long range of travel in flexion to move through in balance and flow. Testers say the 110 is oversold—felt more 100-ish to them, but in combination with the straighter starting point the softer flex feel allowed them to get where they needed to be over the ski with fluid, silky transitions turn to turn.
Yes, in addition to loving the dynamic balance and flex feel, the test team loved the fur and the fun colors—though one called the liner a Westy puppy and another complained that it shed on her socks. But the liner is more than just fluff—the pre-formed ankle pockets grab the rear foot for a comfortable but control-focused fit which testers liked for predictable lateral moves to the edge. Testers say the length fit is long, with more toebox and forefoot room than most medium fits. A couple testers were able to drop down a size without trouble—others enjoyed a toenail-trauma-free fit up front.
The PosiBlock hike mode is simple to use and solidly locked between upper and lower for traditional-boot style power on the downhill, testers note, but they mention that the range of motion when released is somewhat narrow and better suited for apres ski, not uphill skinning.
