I think its fair to say that the Decade is quite possibly the best value for money snowboard boot on the market. Aimed squarely at the more experienced freestyle/all-terrain rider, its combination of state of the art design and construction, all day riding comfort and class-leading performance, has made it a firm favourite. The fact that its considerably less expensive than any of its competitors almost makes getting a pair of Decades a no-brainer. However, dont be put off by that competitive price, this is a boot that doesnt cut any corners. Combining a mid/stiff Thermo Welded upper with Northwaves advanced Double Crossbow sole unit and advanced TF3 custom fit liner, the Decade not only delivers outstanding all-mountain performance but also delivers a level of comfort and fit that truly belies its price.
