These boots rock

I'm in my third season with these, and I agree with the sentiment that these are the best all-around AT boot on the market. I own both the 3-buckle (for ice-climbing approaches) and 4-buckle (for general use) versions of the C-TF. The ZZero fit is incredible, at least for my foot shape. I use them for in-bounds area skiing, long AT tours, skiing Colorado 14ers, and most every other kind of skiing you can imagine. I even won a Nastar medal skiing them, which is just plain silly. The 3-buckle version is very tough for downhill skiing, despite adding a Booster Strap; I'd say it gives up 80% of downhill performance and takes every trick you know to get back to maybe 50%. In contrast, I could ski double-black-plus stuff the first time I put on the 4-buckle version, no Booster Strap required. In fact, I like the 4-buckle ZZero so well that I have pretty much retired my standard alpine gear and gone over to skiing AT gear with the ZZero 100%.
