Gear of the Week: Scarpa Mobe
[ November 3, 2010 - 1:10pm ]
Dek:
Scarpa's burly AT boot skis like an alpine boot. Because even if your local resort isn't open there's snow in the backcountry.
We’ve been psyched on Scarpa’s Mobe since we got a chance to test it last spring. Our testers called it the best boot for people who value downhill performance, but still need to be mobile in their boots, like patrollers and guides. When it’s locked into ski mode, if feels like a fixed-cuff boot, but it rolls in to walk mode easily, and it’s compatible with all AT bindings, including Dynafits. As an addd bonus for the discerning, granola-eating backcountry skiers out there, it’s made with environmental friendly Pebax, which Scarpa is incorporating in a bunch of their boots.
