ASSISTED PERFORMANCE SYSTEMShadow is the first skiboot with an assisted performance & suspension system. This system, combined by two innovations: dual pivot and suspension blade, allow you to get more out into you putt in, it's an assisted efficiency. It's about transfer the power with less effort. We obtain 26% of rebound in more, using less human energy and phycical abilities.
DUAL PIVOTOn traditional boots on the market, you have a pivot point and two fix points very concentrated to each other. With the new shadow, you putt those fix points very far away from eachother, so create mechanical advantage, you emplify the energy in power. You will also engage the full length of the boot, instead of concentrated part.
SUSPENSION BLADEThe suspension blade is an external blade, and the upper cuff comes in between. With this new innovation, we have an excellent and smooth connection between upper and lower, to move together. That get you more absorption and suspension but also more power energy into your skiing. The upper elastomere adjust the flex feel upper part of the turn and also the snap and rebound.
ADJUSTABLE PERFORMANCE - FLEX ADJUSTBy putting two elastomers on the two pivot points: below the leverage point and in the top of suspension blade, you have 4 different option of stiffness. You can really personnalize and adjust your skiing. If you prefer to be more solid on the bottom, you can put a stiffer elastomere on the dual pivot, and if you prefer softer on the top you go soft, or do the opposite. You can really play with your performance level.
NEW ONE PIECE LINERThis new liner one piece will give you more comfortability. The padding is one piece, no break from the lower ankle up and no break in fit from lowerfoot to upper, it's all one piece. This gives you clean and conisstent fit. The fit anatomy follow the foot.
ASYMETRICAL TOE BOXWe added a new thing on our toe box: the shape doesn't across on the straight line but we created now a curve that create unbelievably comfortable toe box with really no pressure cross the top of the toes.
AUXETIC TECHNOLOGYAuxetic Technology is a transformation of a bi-dimension material in a 3-dimension material during the thrmoformage. This effect will follow better the foot shapes and an amazing out of the box fit and personalization.
