The low-profile lugs in the toe area maximize boardfeel while the taller lugs in the heel zone provide an especially smooth ride. These lugs also extend to the outside edge of the sole to further enhance traction when traversing and hiking. The Quantum’s free-floating cushion swallows up impacts and reduces the risk of heel bruises. And thanks to its extensive arch support, the sole prevents fatigue to keep you riding from first chair to last.
