:A great boot for the planet and my feet
från Stefan, Blue Tomato Shop Wien, Blue Tomato, 2 mars 2023
Snowboardboot of mine so I was thinking about the impact of my boots on our environment.
I was stoked to hear and test that there is a Snowboardboot which is (in parts) made of algae. This development is really something to support and it also convinced me in terms of
performance.
As I mainly use it in the funpark, and I do a lot of rails as well, I was a bit sceptically if it would not be too stiff, but it’s actually not too hard, especially in the ankle area it bends well. I can recommend it to any freestyle enthusiast. I also like that they are a bit thicker, so there are no pressure points at all, even when I strap myself in with a lot of power. The Boa wheels is a cool add-on but I like it old school, sometimes I do not even close it entirely
The boot is for everyone who likes slighly stiffer freestyle and freeride boots, I even do jibbing with it. I don’t miss any "fast-track" or two-zone Boa “upgrade” because I just take my time when I am about to go Snowboarding - there is simply no time to hurry in life ;)
