Shadow has only one mission: to restitute in term of rebound, power and precision all the daily energy stocked by the skiers. For that, we coming into industry with the first assisted performance & suspension skiboots. Shadow is a new era of all-mountain skiboots, reconciling performance and comfort. This skiboot is destinated for those who are fully committed. Without nuance or contrast. Those whom passion follows like a shadow. Everywhere. Assisted Performance, It's means get more out into what you putt in: less energy, more power out, more absorption, more comfortable skiing and better on-now contact feeling. It's a mechanical advantage created by 2 innovations: dual pivot and suspension blade. Dual pivot: 1 leverage point and 2 pivot points putted far away from eachother, to create mechanical advantage, gonna get more you putt in the more you get out. emplify energy in power. engage the full lenth of the boot. Transmitting the power with less effort, it's assisted efficienct. Suspension Blade: excellent connection between upper and lower cuff, to move together. Absorbing energy with no fix points. Really consistent clean flex. Smooth connection. Personnalisation of the flex: 4 different options of stiffness (adjustable performance). Women specific shell: better calf accomodation, adapted to women morphology (cuff is shorter and wider at the calf). Comfort: new one piece padding liner, seamless padding. New asymetrical toe box, more comfort. Excellent first fit. Core Custom 3: best level of thermoformage efficiency. Shadow 85 MV: standard foot. Level beginner / intermediate. People looking for efficiency, better performance without same physical abilities. Less effort, more power. ALl type of terrains, all skiing conditions. Gripwalk footbed, walkability +, grip +. Shin control tongue: best comfort. Recycled material on the shell (same level of performance).

Technical Information
ASSISTED PERFORMANCE SYSTEM
Shadow is the first skiboot with an assisted performance & suspension system. This system, combined by two innovations: dual pivot and suspension blade, allow you to get more out into you putt in, it's an assisted efficiency. It's about transfer the power with less effort. We obtain 26% of rebound in more, using less human energy and phycical abilities.
DUAL PIVOT
On traditional boots on the market, you have a pivot point and two fix points very concentrated to each other. With the new shadow, you putt those fix points very far away from eachother, so create mechanical advantage, you emplify the energy in power. You will also engage the full length of the boot, instead of concentrated part.
SUSPENSION BLADE
The suspension blade is an external blade, and the upper cuff comes in between. With this new innovation, we have an excellent and smooth connection between upper and lower, to move together. That get you more absorption and suspension but also more power energy into your skiing. The upper elastomere adjust the flex feel upper part of the turn and also the snap and rebound.
FLEX ADJUST
Offers a progressive growth and adjustable flex. Indeed, by replacing Blade elastomer with soft black elastomer insert provided to soften the flex by 8%.
DUAL CORE
Utilizing our revolutionary new process, both soft and rigid versions of the most responsive high-performance plastics are simultaneously injected and targeted to key areas of the boot. The result of this innovative new process creates our proprietary sandwich shell construction – DUAL CORE By sandwiching a softer plastic core within more rigid plastic, we are able to drastically enhance elastic tension. So as you drive and flex into your boots, DUAL CORE actively compresses and expands – harnessing potential energy to deliver explosive power, snap, and rebound. Imagine World Cup precision and response, easy entry-and-exit, and a new level of ski boot performance as reactive and dynamic as your own body. - Hard plastic is targeted to the areas that transmit power and energy to the ski. - Softer plastic is targeted to the areas that wrap the foot and lower leg.
