Tecnica Cochise 130 DYN GW tested by The Pill

Powder Day? Make yourself an omelet and sock the Cochise 130 DYN GW, you have a day of pure adrenaline all to yourself!

For more than a decade, the benchmark for freeride enthusiasts.

We had the chance to test it on a day with poor visibility, where trusting the materials was the only solution in a sea of fog, and we must confess that we were not disappointed, on the contrary. Thanks to the asymmetrical design of the hull, which is delimited by different areas of thickness, the Cochise 130 offers excellent sensitivity in curve entry, providing considerable support in the gambit part and giving fluidity in the changeover period, between the end and the beginning of the new curve. The weight of the boot will yes affect the ascent, which, despite an incredible 50-degree range, is a bit “clumsy,” but it certainly does not disappoint on the descent, where it leaves free choice to those who want to dare.

The shoes are designed with anatomical shaping that ensures optimal comfort and outstanding heel hold. The inner part of the bootie is molded to fit the foot perfectly.
