Product Info

Performance isn't only measured by flex, and the Full Tilt First Chair 8 Ski Boots are a testament to that notion. When you don't need a boot that will snap your leg before it bends but still need the solid performance to handle the whole mountain, the First Chair 8 will fit the bill. Featuring a heat-moldable power wrap Intuition liner, and a rugged rubber sole to handle those dicey bootpacks and icy parking lots, these boots pack a punch without leaving your shins all purple and dented. Perfect for the all-mountain shredder that wants a boot that will perform from the park to the peak and everything in between.

Product Details

Fit

Last: 99 mmThe original width shell that your feet love. Ideal for average to narrow width feet.

FTS (Full Tilt Soul) ShellThe FTS Shell takes the same 99 mm last width and geometry used in the original 3-piece design and incorporates a roomier toe box, allowing room for your toes to play.

Easy On/OffTongue fully opens like a convertible, never blocking your foot. Slide your foot in and out easily with comfort in all temperatures.

Flex

Flex Rating: 8 (1 soft - 10 stiff)Powerful & responsive energy transfer, while maintaining a smooth, natural ankle motion to eliminate shinbang! You can quickly change your flex by swapping out different flex tongues.

Infinite PivotUnlike traditional designs, the rear cuff never bottoms out. It pivots infinitely forward with your calf for less shell distortion, no shin pain, and more control.

Ribbed Tongue100% ribbed tongue enables smoother, more natural linear flex from your shin to your toe. The tongue bends like a flexible straw, never bottoming out while providing smooth rebound. No more shin bang! Optimized for FT's new 45 degree cable positioning for the smoothest flex possible.

Adjustable FlexThe boot's flex is rated on a simple scale of 1-10 (10 = stiffest). Change a boot's flex by simply switching the tongue (additional tongues sold separately).

Liner

Pro Liner4 mm Open Cell Foam / 2 mm Intuition® RD Foam / 7 mm Intuition® HD Foam. Specifically engineered to provide the most energy transfer to shell while maintaining warmth in a light weight and custom moldable fit.

100% Heat Moldable Intuition®All adult Full Tilt boots use authentic Intuition® closed cell foam that is body heat activated to mold 100% to your feet and shell during use, or can be heat molded by a shop in minutes.

J BarsAn additional J-shaped piece of foam is inserted internally on both sides of the ankle area to dramatically increase ankle hold, to keep your feet perfectly in place for precise control.

WarmUnlike conventional liners, Full Tilt 100% foam construction is air tight with reduced seams to retain body heat.

PowerwrapAn additional layer of ergonomically shaped High Density Intuition® closed cell foam is wrapped around the outside of the upper liner to provide added energy transfer and horsepower to the shell.

Shell Materials & Design

3-Piece Shell ConstructionUp to 2 lbs / 900 g lighter than other boots due to its smart and minimalistic 3-Piece design that eliminates the need for thick, heavy overlapping plastic or bolts.

Stance

Lateral AdjustmentEasy, precise lateral angle adjustment up to 12 mm.

Forward Lean AdjustmentTool-less forward angle adjustment of 3 mm or 7.6 mm.

Buckles

Widetrack BucklesNew adjustment mechanism engineered to increase precision and durability while maintaining on-the-fly single-handed micro adjustment. New durable aluminum lever with a minimalistic lightweight design.

CablesCable closure works like a shoe lace to eliminate dead spots for a smooth even pressure, flex & fit.

45 Degree Heel LockKeep heels where they belong. Placing the middle buckle at an optimal 45 degree angle creates a solid lock for the heel to stay put when pressuring the tips and tails of the skis.

Sole

Rubber SolesNatural rubber soles on the toe & heel for non-slip walking & hiking that can even be replaced if they wear out.

Shock Absorber Boot BoardSoft rubber layer in the sole of the shell absorbs vibrations, impact, and shock for a smooth ride.

Additional Features

CustomizableFull Tilt boots are customizable - all parts are sold separately for unlimited personalization and repair using a standard Philips head screwdriver.
