| Scarpa Hurricane Alpine Touring
/ Randonnee Boot: Product Review |
|

What independent testers think... |
| Sled necks and backcountry huckers, the Hurricane
is calling you. If you love to ski, but don't
like to hike and shun the resort with a vivid distaste
of the hoi polloi, the Hurricane enables you to take big lines
in the backcountry with a healthy dose of hubris. Why get the
Hurricane and not a standard Alpine boot? Although no walk
mechanism, the Vibram rubber sole gives you some grip when
riding your sled, boot packing, or hiking the ridge to the
top of your line. Camo ski pants? Check. Polaris Turbo
Dragon? Check. Volkl Gotama? Check. Scarpa Hurricane? Check. |
Free Riders beware. . .the Hurricane will
blow your mind; designed for aggressive skiing in any terrain.
Features:
-Dual density foot for optimal support and power.
-V-Frame
power-ribs on cuff for strength without weight.
-Interchangeable
DIN-standard Vibram® Ride rubber sole allows use in any step-in
binding: alpine or alpine touring.
-Interchangeable lug sole
provides extra security when needed.
-Lateral cant adjustment
for optimal edge control and precise adjustment. |
Skiing magazine: "Like the Shaman, it has four buckles and no walk mode, but Pebax plastic and an Intuition heat-moldable liner keep it nearly three and a half pounds lighter per pair. Stout enough for hard-snow performance, but still firmly rooted in ski-mountaineering design."
