Hi, I'm Javi, from Spain. The season is starting and I must change my AT boots. I've got ones Scarpa Matrix whit a great battles and I'm searching someone more straigth in foot... I'm look Dynafit Zzero 4ct (carbon tongue) and Garmont Radium (no carbon but w/ overlap)... I think it are the betters compromise up/down/weigth in the market... Both are made in Pebax but one have Carbon strips and the other is overlap construction, then which is stiffest in downhill? I practise a allmountain ski... 1000-1500m ( maybe 4000 feets ¿?)uphill and little freeride downhills, until 45º +/-. Also, I valore Dynafit ZZeus... but is a little heaviest for me...
Lets Radium a good uphill maniobrability dua to overlap?
Thank, and sorry for my english...

i might be a little late but i was just trying on the radium and the zzero the other day. the radium is much stiffer than the zzero, its gonna perform better down hill. i tried the black diamond method on too, which was extremely comfortable with a great walk mode, but was unfortunatly a pound heavier than the radium

javi, i have not tried the zzero but wish i have. i have the radiums and have about 50 days in them. they are a brilliant boot that excells just as much carving and jumping cliffs as it does charging up a mountain setting your own skin track. the radium is also very comfortable on rock and ice, making it in my opinion a must have for the do everything skier. and they feel like i have nothing on my foot. you need a high cuffed overlap boot if you do anything other than noodle down the mountain.
