Purpose-Built Splitboard Hardboot for Backcountry Snowboarding New to the splitboard scene is the Disruptive splitboarding hardboot by Key Equipment. We are stoked to finally offer a hardboot that is built exclusively for splitboarding instead of modifying existing ski boots. For those getting into hardbooting, looking for a more durable hardboot option, or adding a hardboot to their softboot quiver, grab a set of disruptive boots before they are gone! Adjustable Forward Lean System for Backcountry Conditions With a softer upper cuff than "lightweight" ski boots, you get a heel side flex profile just like a stiff high back on a softboot binding. The top of the upper cuff is shaped for your calf to prevent calf bite. The adjustable walk mode gives you two forward lean positions out of the gate, one for POW and one for more edge control. On top of that, you can also adjust that forward lean position with a 3mm allen key. There is far greater adjustment on this boot than a boot with the phantom link lever. Designed for up and down The Disruptive boosts improved sideways flex and increased heel side damping for unforgettable turns. This hardboot also features tech toe inserts, a near-frictionless walk mode, and strong lateral support for smooth skinning. Despite all the tech, it is still a snowboard boot whose priority lies in downhill performance. Fully heat moldable liner ensures the best fit. Lower shell has an average last and foot shaped so it feels wider than most ski boots. Splitboard hardboots re-imagined.
