The Mindbender 130 BOA is an exceptional boot that will appeal to the discerning freerider who likes to push downhill. Thanks to the BOA Fit system and MultiFit Last, it wraps the foot extremely precisely. As soon as we put it on, we felt like we were stepping into slippers from how comfortable they are, but nevertheless, they give a nice bandaging sensation at the metatarsal and instep level, leaving perfect mobility to the toes. The BoaFit system is known for its easy micro-adjustment, thanks to which even skiers with more tapered feet can enjoy maximum safety and precision of fit. In addition, thanks to the thermoformable Powerlite Shell, the inner bootie can be customized to better fit each foot, and we are not kidding when we say that this step can really make a difference! In case of multi-day tours, where it may happen to put on and take off the boots several times, thanks to the FastFit Instep the fit is made easier and faster. The Powerlock Spine allows a remarkable 50° range of motion, which is especially useful in touring as it allows natural ankle and foot movement.
