WTS 2011 Burton Hail boots (size 7), NYC

d
Bought these in 2013, used for 2 seasons. Moving across the country and need to get rid of them... so I'm selling it for only $20! The catch - you'd have to pick up from me in NYC though.

Great condition, except the shoelaces (the plastic things at the ends are cracked).

Marketing schpeal:

From manhandling urban zones to backwoods kickers, the Burton Hail Snowboard Boot is all about high-grade hucking power. Forget about its new Stay-Puft padded tongue, extra-smooth articulating cuff, and 50% larger air bag. Pay no attention to the fully-loaded, ultra cush Flex 2 liner and reduced weight and footprint of Shrinkage™. Ride the Burton Hail Snowboard Boot 'cause Mikkel Band does and everyone knows he rips.

Flex Rating and Fit

Flex Rating: 4 (1=Soft, 10=Stiff) Shrinkage footprint reduction technology reduces the boot's overall footprint one full size, meaning a men's size 10 fits like a size 10, but has the footprint of a typical size 9. Shorter, lighter, sleeker -- never suffer from toe drag again. The articulating off allows the upper and lower zones of the boot to flex independently and create fluid forward motion while minimizing shell distortion and maximizing heel hold and response. The Flex Spine Backstay lets you get effortless medial and lateral mobility with ample edge to edge support for when it's time to throw down the landing gear.

Construction: 270° cushioning offers more cush and less weight. A 50% larger airbag covers approximately 75% of the midsole for unstoppable impact protection. The new Stay Puft Tongue allows you to tuck that knee and tweak it with the smoother forward motion and cushy comfort of it's padded, progressive flexing upper tongue construction.

Liner and Lacing: The 2:1 Power Lacing System ratio gives you more pulling power with less effort, making it easy to fine tune your fit. Add that with the Imprint™ 3 Liner and Rad Pad you've got a quick and comfortable fit.



My notes: pretty good boot, I've used it in pow and in the park. Leans towards the stiff side. Unfortunately, also on the heavier side. Traditional laces outside and speed lacing for the liner. Insoles are shit, get your own.
