Clumsy, distant and righteous are the words that come to mind when we travel in Dynafit Radical Ski Touring boots. Most backcountry skiers unbuckle their boots while going uphill , but the Dynafit Hoji Single Lock system opens the boot when entering walking mode opening the shoe at the same time to maximize freedom of movement when going uphill and flipping the boot back into ski mode using a flip. buckles We love exploring the countryside in these boots , no matter whether we are plowing snow among gentle trees or descending from a steep peak.
