Scarpa Terminator X Telemark Ski Boot

By Ranked #40 - Telemark Ski Boots February 3, 2012

torn between these and tx pros. Relative beginner into telemark but 200 lbs and like to push hard. Got BD Verdict mid fats and want to do mostly resort to start but moving into more touring eventually. Will I wish I had Pros for added stiffness?? OR Comps?? Is the TX stiff enough to powerfully drive verdicts? Have been skiing on T1s and old prophets.

Either boot will be enough to drive the Verdicts. If you intend on moving into touring more than resort runs, the regular TX will offer a much more comfortable touring platform while maintaining enough power to drive a big ski. In addition, you may want to consider exploring the Rottafella NTN Freedom binding. Same NTN benefits with a huge weight loss that will make for touring gold. Everyone I've talked to says you won't notice a difference in stiffness, but it shaves almost a pound off of each foot for the hike up.
