5 Star Rating

A Try Out

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #2 - Alpine Touring Boots December 9, 2008

i went into pro ski in seattle thinking i'd be trying on and eventually buying the dynafit zzero cf. i tried them on side by side, one on each foot. i had been warned by tetonat.com's steve romeo about the boot liner in the dynafits. wearing them on different feet this was obvious. the dynafit zzero boot just wasn't as comfortable as the garmont radium. also the radium feels like more boot because it comes up higher. it's a full alpine length boot which can only translate to better ski performance. now knew which one felt better on my foot it was time to weigh them. in size 25 the garmont radium was 5 ounces heavier per boot. for a race geak that is considerable. but for me that wasn't enough to tip the scale. i just ordered the radiums and can't wait to ski it!
