LACING
Speed Zone™ Lacing System featuring NEW Components for 2016 and Powered by NEW Burton Exclusive New England Ropes with a Lifetime Warranty NEW for 2016, Speed Zone™ Lacing now features streamlined, re-profiled lace guides and jam cleats on all models (excluding the Moto and Mint) for increased performance and greater durability. The system retains lightning fast lacing control by allowing you to customize the fit of the upper and lower zone in seconds. More power means more rebound, wrap and response with less lacing effort. New England Rope laces add a virtually indestructible character worthy of our Lifetime Warranty.
FLEX / RESPONSE
Soft-Flexing Shell Materials
Articulating Cuff Allowing the upper and lower zones of the boot to flex independently creates fluid forward motion, minimizes shell distortion, and maximizes heel hold and response.
GripLITE Backstay Snugging up the fit between boot and hi-back, our new rubber print backstays also shave weight and enhance material-to-material grip. The result of this printed rubber application is more direct transfer from boot to binding to board for reduced rider fatigue.
1:1 Soft Flex PowerUP Tongue For greater rebound and durability, the majority of our boots feature this dual density tongue construction. Like all our Thin Profile 3D® Molded Tongues, it’s available in one of three flex options based on the boot. For even greater response, check the thermoplastic-reinforced PowerUP PlusTongue on the Driver X.
