Atomic Hawx Ultra XTD 115 W Alpine Touring Boot (2022)

Ladies asked for a freeride touring boot and Atomic delivered with the Hawx Ultra 115 W. This boot can be considered a queen-of-all-trades, as it marries the downhill capability of a four-buckled, alpine-style ski boot with the range of motion and light weight of a modern touring boot. The Hawx Ultra 115 W has four traditional alpine buckles plus a cuff cam strap that provide the same adjustable performance as an alpine downhill boot. The 115 indicates the 115 rated flex of the boot, being the stiffest model in the female Hawx line. These boots still shine for their comparable uphill performance, weighing in at a slender 1300 grams [for a size 24] and providing 54° of articulation in the ankle. The boot comes with both Investment Cast Tech Inserts and Tech GripWalk Pads to be compatible with both alpine tech bindings and alpine downhill bindings. So yes - these boots can do it all, and with a kind of class that only lady shredders can properly put to use. Past models of the Hawx W hav
