Low cuff hinge point:
- high leverage cuff assembly with hinge points mounted approximately 10 cm lower than standard construction boot designs.
- the low hinging cuff permits the boot cuff to more easily follow the natural anatomic movement of the skier’s legs because it has a longer range of forward and rearward hinging motion. for more efficient walking and gliding. increased power and control with less energy.

Hyperband wide profile cuff closure:
- unique dalbello design. low friction, wide profile shin pad closure securely wraps the upper part of the boot cuf with a wide profile, high leverage cuff closure buckle assembly. smooth flexing design is highly shock absorbing for maximum boot-top comfort with no “shin-bang” or, no “shin-bite”

Gripwalk option:
- this boot is coming with the option to mount gripwalk soles as an aftermarket accessory. gripwalk soles provide better grip, great walking comfort and work perfectly with the gripwalk binding without any height adjustment (due to their touring iso norm 9523).

Cuff movement (fore 40° / back 27°):
- forward and backward lean for the boots

Dynalink heel retention system:
- the dynalink heel retention is an independently functioning heel / instep closure assembly which minimizes foot sliding, heel lift and boot shell distortion during the flex effectively.
- independently functioning heel /instep closure assembly
- minimizes foot sliding, heel lift and boot shell distortion during flex effectively

Replacement toe / heel protector:
- patented toe-heel inserts for lighter, more durable ski-boots. high density special compound insert provide outstanding durability in any heavy usage.

Touring norm with tech insert (pin):
- all lupo models may be used with iso 9523 alpine touring norm bindings due to their tech inserts. by changing the rockered soles to the interchangeable alpine soles the boots fit in all alpine bindings as well but are not certified iso 5355.

Hike & ride mechanism:
- as the burly cuff lock mechanism frees the upper cuff from the lower shell a long range of motion for functional hiking and climbing is guaranteed. due to the unique cabrio design it doesn´t contain any compromises on the skiing performance.

Inverted forefoot buckle:
- forefoot closure buckle (above instep) are inverted to close on top of the bootshell, not on the side. the top closure positioning prevents buckle breakage and bending during rail slides, grinds, falls, and transitions.

Micro buckles:
- permits skiers to precisely “fine tunes” buckle closure tension for a more exact fit. with micro adjustment, you can twist the buckle to make it longer or shorter.

Contour 4:
- exclusive dalbello construction technology that maps the anatomical contours of the foot.
- exclusive dalbello construction technology that maps the anatomical contours of the foot to create subtle “comfort zones” at 4 critical fit points: ankle, heel, 5th metatarsal, & navicular. relief contours molded into the inside lower shell at these 4 points provide a close and accurate fit and minimize the need for shell modifications
