Behold the Burton Men’s Grail Snowboard Boot, the cushiest boot in all the land. Burton designed the Holy Shit outsoles just for the Grail Boots, to absorb the shock of your landings. These outsoles feature two midsoles; Burton made the secondary midsole of dual-density EVA. Denser EVA on the boot’s lateral side provides support and response while softer EVA on the medial side lets your foot roll naturally to reduce stress on your ligaments and joints.
- Articulating cuffs allow upper and lower parts of the boots to flex independently to maximize heel hold and assure mobility
- The Grail’s Flex Spine Backstay allows for lateral and medial flex while maintaining edge-to-edge support
- Flex 3 liners with TaiPanels balance smooth flex and solid support
- Flex Cuffs hug your ankles to enhance heel hold without losing the forgiveness needed for street and park
- InfiniFIT EVA soles in the liners cushion feet and won’t pack out after half a season
- Outlast Adaptive Comfort Technology means these boots’ liners are smart enough to absorb excess heat and then release that heat when your feet get cold
Bottom Line: At long last, your quest for the ideal park boot has ended.

Anyone know how the fit on this boot compares to the Ozone?
Anyone know how the fit on this boot compares to the Ozone? I notice they both have "Flex" liners. I demoed a pair of Ozones last season and dug the fit, but they were a little too soft for my liking. These look pretty promising.

The fit is fairly similar as they are built using the same last. However, the flex on the Ozone is much softer than the grail.
The grail is a medium flex (If you lace it tight, and double back the laces on themselves, it can become even stiffer) Breaks in great and holds to a medium flex.
Overall feedback and sales on this boot have been insane. It has many fans!!!!

I replaced my Driver X's from i think about 2005 with the new grail in black and red. Just for comparison sake i'll use the driver x as my constant. I don't know if technically burton built the boot in this manner but this is my opinion from riding them both. The grails seem like they are built with the same last as the driver x and fit is the same, however the driver x was a bit more stiff, and seems like the build was more for backcountry (durability wise and water repellent strength), but I like the way the grail rides much more. The more flexible attitude of the grails cuff compared to the driver obviously allows for more flexibility and movement which i find handy in the park, bust also useful when you need a little forgiveness in the backwoods. Granted the power exchange between your boots to bindings isn't so direct, I still prefer the grails to the driver x from 2004. Final note, i've had quality issues with burton gloves and little things before, but with bindings and boots, the craftsmanship is there and these at least feel the same as the others. I'll update this review once the grails have had one season under them, but seems pretty burton quality already after 7 hard boarding days in japan. Oh, ps, cushioning on these are pretty badass and will keep you comfy all day.
