Conceived for a wide range of users, THRILL arose from a detailed morphological study of inner volumes, with the aim of meeting the most advanced alpine-touring needs. Its innovative design, based on Axial Alpine Technology, will guarantee you with a perfect transfer of drive onto your skis, with maximum downhill acceleration & minimum uphill energy expenditure. Due to our HRS & instep straps, heel security has become a SCARPA® trademark. Our instep strap configuration offers incredible fit for both touring comfort & rock-solid downhill performance. Scarpa Alpine Axial Technology, the new Zeus buckle design & the new Mono- Injected tongue work together to increase stiffness & distribute pressure more evenly to transfer movements of the foot & ankle more efficiently to the ski allowing greater edge to edge performance on freeride terrain. Features & Benefits Ski/ Walk Mechanism The “WALK” position releases the cuff for walking comfort. The “SKI” position fixes the cuff to the shell for skiing. Adjustable to two different inclinations. Evo V-Frame The design of the cuff stiffens the rear part by increasing the transmission of force in the movement of forward flexion of the leg. Predator RS Strap The closing band of the instep is equipped with a toothing which allows a dedicated micrometric adjustment, & abuts on a specific seat in the tooth. This allows a progressive closure & an excellent lateral support, allowing better distribution of the forces of thrust of the boot on the ski. Scarpa Cayman Sole The ultra light CAYMAN / VIBRAM® sole offers maximum performance when it comes to grip & prevention of slipping. Vertical & horizontal grooves increase traction on ice & snow, with incredible grip on rock surface.
