An Epic Frontside Boot

By Chris Davenport Ranked #30 - Alpine Touring Boots October 17, 2008

I spent all last season in this boot when skiing lift served terrain and it's a stiff, burly alpine boot that skis with grace and poise. As an ex-racer I like a stiff "race boot" feel when skiing groomers or charging pow with my friends, and the Shaman delivers on all fronts. I use the Din sole with Marker Jester and Duke bindings and the interface is seamless. The boot is super comfy and I installed a Booster Strap to give it a little more power in the cuff. For a brand that has cut it's teeth with A/T boots, the Shaman can compete with any alpine boot on the market.

And BTW I use the incredible Garmont Radium for backcountry and alpinism and it is off the hook!
