Booster Straps

October 19th, 2007 · 1 Comment

Booster Straps are designed to make a ski boot flex more evenly. They come in four different flexes J3-J4, Standard, Expert and World Cup. The different flexes allow a skier to stiffen or soften their boots.

-Stiffer boots give you better rebound, which helps in keeping you centered on your skis.
-Softer boots allow for a greater range of movement and can help in reducing shin bang.

Depending on your intended goals Boosters can be used to replace your power strap or in conjunction with them. A proper bootfitter can help you install your straps as well as find the right Booster Strap combination for you.
