What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "I used the Tigard 130 for a hut trip and couldn’t believe the blend of power and uphill agility. The Hoji Lock system is buttery smooth for transitions, and it skis like a true alpine boot—stiff, precise, and super locked in on the descent." We chase fresh lines with full confidence in the Dynafit Tigard 130 Boot—engineered for skiers who demand uncompromising downhill performance without giving up the freedom to tour deep into the backcountry. Built to handle anything from open bowls to tight chutes, the Tigard’s alpine-style construction meets touring functionality for a boot that’s just as capable on resort laps as it is miles from the trailhead. The heart of this boot is the patented Hoji Lock system, connecting cuff and shell into one unified unit that locks out play and delivers alpine-like responsiveness at a featherweight 1550 grams. Paired with a progressive 130 flex, a 101mm last, and a stiff carbon-reinforced Grilamid shell, the Tigard carves, charges, and drops like a boot twice its weight. On the skintrack, 70 degrees of cuff rotation and an easy-entry overlap design make long ascents efficient and surprisingly comfortable.
