Full Tilt Descendant 8 Ski Boots 2017

A wide foot deserves the same high performance as a narrow fit boot. Enter the brand-new Descendant 8! A firm flex with features you need to ride everyday! 

The Descendant 8 features the all-new Evolution Shell! Full Tilt approached the design of this boot with the goal of incorporating the original DNA of the 3-piece boot while making it more comfortable for those who have a wider footprint. From the ground up, this ski boot is something special. It features a 102mm width, dual material soles for added traction and durability with an upgraded buckle system for easy on & off. With its 8 flex tongue, the boot provides a stiff yet responsive feel for those skiers who prefer a more resistant flex pattern. 

Features

 

FIT

Last: 102 mm – Wider shell for wider and higher volume feet.

Full Tilt Evolution Shell – A quantum leap in ski boot design, the FTE is a new shell born from the original DNA of the 3-piece but constructed for those with a wider footprint.

FTE EVOLUTION 3-PIECE SHELL

 

Easy On/Off – Tongue 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.

Adjustable Flex – The 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).

Ribbed Tongue – 100% 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.

Infinite Pivot – Unlike 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.

LINER

PRO LAMINATE CONSTRUCTION

The Pro Liner's laminates are specifically engineered to provide the most energy transfer to the shell while maintaining its warmth, light weight & custom moldable fit. 


4mm Open Cell Foam
Warm & comfy layer conforms quickly to your foot upon entry
2mm Soft Density Intuition™ Foam

7mm High Density Intuition™ Foam
Most firm & responsive cross linked EVA closed cell foam molds to your feet & transfers the most energy!

 PRO LAMINATE CONSTRUCTION

 

 

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

 

Powerwrap – An 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.

 

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

 

SHELL MATERIALS

3-Piece Shell Construction – Up 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

Forward Lean Adjustment – Tool-less forward angle adjustment of 3 mm or 7.6 mm.

45° Heel Lock – The best angle for keeping heels in place when pressuring tips and tails.

 

BUCKLES

Aluminum Ladder Buckles – The Ladder Buckle features an intuitive, easy to remember, macro-size adjustment, plus a micro-twist for fine adjustment with a light, easy-to-handle aluminum lever.

ALUMINUM LADDER BUCKLES

POWER STRAP

Nylon power strap gives you what you need to get the job done.

 

SOLE

Mid Grip – Whether you are climbing grated stairs or scrambling a rock on top of a mountain, a dual material or single material midgrip gives you the confidence to stay on your feet.

 

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

Dual Material Soles – No slipping getting in-between you and the ground. A firm rubber and a softer TPU material combat wear and keep your feet underneath you on any surface.

Replaceable Soles – A removable outsole of polymer construction.

 

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

Tongue Badge – Tongue badge = more robust tongue attachment to shell.

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