Looking for a new set of boots and see some Rossignol Hero boots out there with the same Z designations as the Lange plugs. Are they out of the same mold but just a different color? How about the Lange RS series? If different do they have the same general internal shape and stance geometry? Dual Core?

The ZA/ZB/ZC plugs are the same, not sure about the others.

I have Rossi Hero si 130 which are identical in every way to a Lange RS. Not sure about the z plugs tho.
Mine are from 2018 which was pre-dual core technology.

Same last, different plastic.
a positive attitude will not solve all of your problems, but it may annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

How is the plastic different? Not dual core? Not PU? So same shape but won't ski quite the same?

Not exactly sure what's different about the plastic, but the boots flex and ski differently despite being virtually the same. I'm not sure if its the mix of plastic or something to do with the color addition, but the Lange boots were definitely favored over the Rossi's for racing.

Not sure where you’re buying but had good experience with Skiyard. Ordered a pair of ZAs to try but unfortunately had to return.
