These didn't quite live up to the hype for me. If they fit your feet and ankles I can imagine they perform very well, and I have friends who swear by these boots so don't let my opinion alone make your decision.

If I have a pair of Vario2's with brakes but I want to remove the brakes, do I need shorter screws or anything special to reinstall the heel turret or is it as simple as removing the brake and reinstalling the turret?
