Description
The Drop Kick is the original freestyle option for skiers looking for the ultimate boot in any terrain from park to cliffs to bumps or high-speed groomers. The shell uses the Original design, with a 99mm last, meaning good foothold and precise ski control. The 3-piece construction ensures a super-smooth flex and removes any bottoming-out or blocking that you can get with a 2-piece alpine boot, making it perfect for landing jumps and drops, giving you the natural movement to remain balanced and able to absorb shocks. The flex 6 is equivalent to a 90 flex, ideal for use in the park when pressing and buttering but with enough support to ski the rest of the mountain with control. Finishing off this shock absorbing set-up is a soft rubber layer in the bottom of the shell that dampens vibrations and smoothes out shocks. As well as the shell which can be heat moulded, the Classic Tongue Intuition liner is fully mouldable too, ensuring the best shape and comfort, whilst also being exceptionally light and impressively warm. To complete the customisation both the forward lean and cuff alignment can be adjusted, the tongue can be swapped for different flexes (sold separately) and the cables and buckles can be easily replaced if damaged.Ability LevelOverviewFitSlighlty narower than average on the forefoot, nice open toe box, medium around heel.

The Classic's laminates use multi-layered construction in a traditional tongue liner, designed to provide targeted comfort and performance. J-Bars are additional j-shaped piece of foam that is inserted internally on both sides of the ankle area to dramatically increase ankle hold down, to keep your feet perfectly in place for precise control. The foam is listed here from foot to shell: 5mm Open Cell, ensures warmth and comfort straight out of the box; 4mm Intuition Foam, medium density and hardness for a solid balance of comfort and performance; 4mm Standard HD Foam, high density and firm for a responsive and efficient transfer of energy.Key FeaturesRibbed Tongue100% Ribbed tongue enables smoother, more natural linear flex from your shin to your toe.
