Dynafit Ridge Boot
Designed by Hoji himself, the Ridge Pro boot is intended for the hardest chargers who want a boot with the best possible touring mannerisms. Because of its intended audience, the Ridge Pro is, quite stiff. While some may enjoy its stiffness, others, such as lighter skiers, may find it a bit too hard to flex. With the Ridge boot, Dynafit has kept the same excellent touring capabilities, but with a slightly softer flex achieved using glass fibers in the cuff instead of carbon. While still not a soft boot, the Ridge provides a touch more progressive ride relative to its bigger brother. Using the same tried and true Hoji lock system, the Ridge boot has virtually none of the cuff play found on some of its competitors and is extremely fast to transition, allowing you to soak up the views while your partner fiddles with their four buckle monstrosity. The novel Floating Tongue provides a nearly frictionless range of motion while the Twistfit Closure System accommodates many different instep heights. Finally, the excellent Vibram sole is long-lasting and will provide traction for icy ridge traverses. Built with the same pedigree as its bigger brother but with a more forgiving flex, the Ridge boot will happily accompany you on many adventures.
