24/25 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
A boot for anyone who wants better carving without a big outer footprint. It's aimed at speed- and carve-oriented riders who don't need low-speed excellence but don't want it to be dead weight either.
Even if freestyle isn't your thing, comfort and impact and chatter absorption are covered. Best on medium to stiff boards, and best of all right in the middle of that range.

26/27 · 25/26 · 24/25 season review
A boot whose length is very accurate and whose liner resists packing out, so the fit lasts. The liner is thick at the top and thins toward the bottom, which holds your foot well.
Reviewers say the new calf velcro noticeably improves the fit over the previous TLS liner. The width is medium to slightly wide and suits D–E feet, though the reviewer also regrets the narrow toe box.
