I'm excited. Look pretty cool. Technica have an AT boot too now. I'm tipping this as a move by some big names in the ski industry towards the BC market. The Dukes will spawn a whole range of burl AT binders from salomaon and co and I reckon every boot manafacturer will be tripping over themselves to make stiff AT boots.

Looks like a winner. I waited this year on a full on touring boot, so hopefully the fit is similiar to the Krypton line and I am in. Thanks for the post V61.

Rear-entry AT boot????? What goes around, comes around....
Given its weight and 3-buckle design, it appears to be a pure touring boot. More of a competitor to the Spirit/Matrix/Megaride segment than the new burly AT freeride boots like Skookum, Factor, Axon and Zzeus.
Need to input the Virus to the Flex Chart.
Flex? Anyone?

Sweet!! I can see what i'll be shopping for used in 2 winters!
Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

Plake tours alot these days, hardly surprising that they want possibly their most visible skier on their boots and not a competitors.
Whatever the reason, good news - more competition = quicker progression 9/10.Riding bikes, but not shredding pow...

does anyone know if rear entry would affect the really smooth progressive flex that i love about my kryptons. i'm not sure about the mechanics of it but i feel like it would alter the way the boot is flexed.

The design isn't that different than a current Krypton, it mostly looks like they removed the welt at the back that kept the upper from opening like a rear entry and replaced it with a walk/ski swith. That doesn't make it a rear entry at all, and if you look at the pivot points compared to a current Krypton Pro, they aren't very different at all. As long as it's stiff enough, then I'm thinking it'll ski very similar to a Krypton, and give me a Vibram sole, which I was planning on trying to frankenstein onto an old pair of Kryptons anyway.
If this fits like a Krypton and is stiff, hell yeah I'm getting a pair
