Atomic Hawx Ultra XTD 130 Boot

If skiing massive backcountry lines, stomping landings, and etching figure elevens sounds like you, then we encourage you to read on. Following a tradition of excellence, Atomic filled the void in their backcountry boot selection with the show-stopping Hawx Ultra XTD 130. Touting an impressive 54° of smooth cuff articulation and Atomic’s Mimic Liner, the Hawx is a seriously impressive touring boot. It really starts to strut its stuff after flipping the Free/Lock 2.0 Lever into ski mode. The Energy Backbone and Progressive Shell tech provide a rock-solid platform that will push back no matter how hard you can drive it. With a multitude of binding choices and a powerful 130-flex, the Hawx Ultra XTD 130 is ready to rip anywhere that skis will take you. Best of all, it even fits “problem” feet since the entire boot can be cooked and molded around your hooves.
