Saw the COVID-19 tsunami approaching two weeks ago and thought the resorts might close. Freaked out and ordered some 2018 Fischer Travers in a 27.5 (one size up from alpine boots) on sale.
Uphill: amazing. Downhill: Lots of heel lift with the stock liners and pretty soft forward flex.
Put my Intuition Tour Wrap 27s and green superfeet in them. The ROM uphill is a little worse (both total degrees of articulation and resistance through the initial ROM) but the downhill heel hold and forward flex are much better. Like, a lot a lot. At least for my narrow heels. Added about 80gm per boot over stock setup, to about 1130gm per boot.
Pretty psyched on these. Driving Line Vision 98s in a 179 cm with Xenics brakeless so far. We are expecting 20-30” in upper Little Cottonwood by the weekend. So I’m planning on trying them out with my 184 cm Atomic BC 120s this Friday/Saturday too.
