This boot is a truly a work of art. It looks incredible, walks like my PG Black race boot (and better than other race boots out there), skis better or at least comparable to most lightweight boots like a Scarpa F1LT/XT, Zero G Peak, etc, and weighs nothing. I have kept these boots to skis from ~104 and under but others (see below) have skied big skis with no problems on these especially in hero pow. I save my ridge pros for my big skis (112, 123) but others will disagree with me. It's truly a unique boot ...

Historically I've hated carbon race boots. The Alien 3.0 ripped my heels apart and skied terribly (in my opinion) and I used a pair of alien 1.0s for years. While not a perfect boot and "heavier" I thought it skied way better and was more comfortable than the 3.0. I was very hesitant to go back to carbon boots but enough friends have this boot so I had to give a chance. It's truly a phenomenal lightweight race boot. Extremely comfortable for a carbon boot and it skis very well for what it is and likely ou...

I should also note that there is roughly a 100 gram difference between the 93 and 104. I got the 93 prior to the 104 coming out. I personally think the 104 is the way to go if you're looking at this ski. Not a huge difference in weight and can handle deeper snow.

Let's call it 4.5 stars. Phenomenal toe piece and arguably the best one on the market. ATK toe piece's are likely more durable with no plastic pieces but I haven't had any issues with breaking the Ski Trab toes including ramming the toe piece under sticks and logs in the spring on accident. One time I thought I broke it but I could pop it back into place. My personal favorite toe piece on the market. Even with the toes locked, your boot can pop out a little easy if you're side hilling or slip skinning on fi...

Like all Ski Trab skis it's a durable and well built ski. It skis very well for its width as skimoco describes is. I tend to grab this ski when I'm heading towards more committing terrain. It is a touch heavy for a 93 underfoot touring ski though which is my only minor complaint. Overall it is a great ski with plenty of use cases.
