Overview
Blending the comfort and power of the proven Prime range with the lightness and natural movement of the XTD and Backland models, the all new Hawx Prime XTD is where all mountain skiing meets freeride. Prolite construction uses different wall thicknesses on the shell to keep the weight down without affecting the performance. The tried and tested Free/Lock hike and ski system provides 54° of motion, ease of use and, thanks to the way it integrates the energy Backbone, precise ski control. Memory Fit on the shell means it can be heat moulded to even more closely match the foot shape; the excellent 3D Gold liner takes an impressive mould of the heel and ankle area for the best comfort and control. Comes with GripWalk soles and tech insoles so it can be used with a range of bindings.Ability LevelOverviewFitAn average fit on the rearfoot with generous forefoot width and a medium to high instep.Shell Prolite True Flex PU Memory Fit shell with PU Memory Fit cuff, mouldable. The advanced heat fitting technology of Memory Fit creates a fully personalised shell and cuff in minutes. The key is Memolink, a special additive that improves the mouldability and stretch characteristics of the plastic. The boot shell is heated in an oven, then the skiers foot is placed inside the complete boot whilst it cools. With the foots natural standing pressure, the forefoot of the boot can expand up to 3mm per side and the ankle area up to 5mm per side. True Flex is an exclusive Atomic shell material that means your flex and feel remains constant in a variety of temperatures. So, the boot you buy in store feels the same on the mountain, you dont lose horsepower in the spring and you dont have a boot that you cant flex in mid-winter.Liner3D Gold with Touring Flex Zone, mouldable. Thermoformable material is used in the heel, ankle and midfoot areas. The liner is heated in an oven and is cooled to form to the shape of the skiers feet. 3D means pre-shaped heel and ankles areas for better foot hold and comfort. A special construction in the rear of the liner allows it to flex backwards for a more comfortable range of motion when the walk mode is being used.Key FeaturesFree/Lock 4.0Flick from ski to walk mode with one simple switch.
