new scarpa boot guess

[dschane]

Who says it's just one thing new; maybe we get the Maestrale with bellows (I like it) and an F1 with bellows, or an Alien? F'ck it, bellow them all!

I guess he is saying January 22 because that is the day before the start of the big ISPO tradeshow in Munich.

I actually hope it's something exactly like what Jason sketched up. I'd buy it.

Enough beef to handle ~30 lift serve days a year, good enough ROM for touring days when I actually want some performance on the descents, and a flex pattern suited for tech toes. Kinda like the role the T2X tried to fill. When I'm skinning for vert, I'll be on F1's + TTS anyway, but something like the drawing would pare my boot quiver down to 2 (not counting wacky test mules and redundant pairs waiting in mothballs).

Want the second but expect the first. I doubt it will get me to replace a boot quiver of F3's and TXP's, but we'll see. For those without an existing NTN/TTN/TTS boot quiver, something that has the tourability of the F3 and the downhill performance of the TXP should cover the market pretty well. Basically a modern TX I guess.

I would like a lower cuff, get rid of the power strap, or maybe combine it with the top buckle like the Dynafit PDG. But that probably won't happen. So looking at the Maestrale for cuff options is a smart guess.

What's the significance of Jan 22? ISPO?


My guess:




(Just kidding, it will surely have at least 3 buckles, zero carbon, and weigh at least 1500g.)
