Worthy of hard-charging pros, Salomon Falcon 9 ski boots deliver race-like performance with high-end features and a dialed in fit. Bi-material shell and cuff use soft materials over the instep and front of the cuff for ease of entry, excellent foot envelopment and progressive flex. Second Skin last (shell dimensions and shape) is Salomon's snuggest, most anatomical fit, so every bit of control pressure is transferred to the ski. Spaceframe Shell Profile, with multi-layer construction and precise wall thicknesses, optimizes feeling, performance and energy transmission. Thin-wall construction of the Second Skin Shell creates Salomon's lightest, most sensitive boot ever, providing superior fit and feel. Energyzer shell reinforcement provides a progressive and responsive flex. My Customfit Pro liner features three foam layers that conform underfoot, over instep and around toes, heel, Achilles and shin for superior foothold. Waterproof, leather-textured liner helps transmit ''snow feel'' through the forefoot. Loop on tongue helps when putting the boot on and taking it off. Micro-adjustable titanium buckles shave weight off the boot while providing performance-enhancing stiffness. Auto 3D buckle on the shell personalizes the closure angle for optimal envelopment, increasing comfort and control. Extended cuff buckles require 30% less effort to close than standard buckles. 35mm strap enhances wrap and support of the upper ankle while increasing the boot's forward rigidity. Double canting adjustments align the cuffs to lower leg shape; canting lock ensures zero transmission loss between cuff and shell. 90 flex index responds to aggressive skiing. |
