Holy Crap, why did I wait?

By Todd Cox March 9, 2006

Changed up to these when my T2s started to get packed out and annoying. These boots rock. At first my skis felt twitchy and strange underneath me, but after a couple runs to get the feel I was sold. The control in these boots is so far beyond the T2 it's not even in the same ballpark. The T2s were great, but their translation of energy to ski control was sort of stately (not sloppy, but kind of a slower reaction) the T1s make the ski respond to thought. It's that good. That might be bad for a beginner, but if you've got reasonable technique the T1s up the ante. They also sport a lot of thoughtful features like the hiking bar on the top buckle, a canting adjustment, and a much better walk function than the T2s'. If you're serious about tele you need to get some T1s.
