The Nordica HF S 130 GW ski boots open from the rear without giving up the control a 130 flex demands. A 3D Custom Cork liner molds a heel pocket to the skier's own anatomy during fitting, cutting internal movement so power transfers straight from leg to ski instead of getting lost in a loose heel. A 45mm power strap adds a second layer of energy transmission and rebound, backing up the cork's precision with real drive out of every turn. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I drove this boot hard into a series of fast direction changes and felt the ski respond the instant I moved, no lag, no give in the heel. That's what a molded fit is supposed to do, and I stopped noticing the boot was rear-entry at all."
