If Angus Young were a chick who skied, this would be her boot. You following this? That's right, because the Electra SI 110 is back in black, get it? This analogy may be a stretch, but it's perfect because this year's murdered-out version of the perennial favorite deserves an ear-splitting, hard rock anthem to accompany its rock-star performance at this year's boot test. The hard charging, high speed, crud-killing shredder took testers on adventures all over the mountain to unanimous applause, and high scores for ease of entry and exit as well as overall comfort to balance out all the badass it brought back to the table this year.
Testers loved the springy, energetic flex feel of the Electra SI 110, citing that flexion as the key to the boot's agility and responsiveness. Solid on edge with a firm, narrow-last grip on the ankle and heel for driving a ski, the Electra got medium-ish scores for its toebox and forefoot fit. Testers loved the small dose of fur on the newly revised Thinsulate liner, but they were glad that it was black.
Testers thought this boot (and the rest of the Rossignol line that shares the same stance platform) was spot-on for stance angles--unanimously agreeing on the neutral and comfortable position the boot placed them for making turns of every sort.
Kudos
