Tecnica Viva Crossfire

The all new Crossfire is changing the game when it comes to Side Country skiing. This boot offers touring capability with the Interchangeable Soles and Cuff Mobility System, without sacrificing downhill performance. Gone are the days of choosing between the convenience of a better "up" boot versus a kick butt alpine "down" boot. Great women's fit with great side country performance. Get the Crossfire and get it all.

Winner of the Powder Magazine's Skier's Choice Fantasy Draft, Powder says: "Looking at AT and sidecountry boots, the Viva Crossfire makes sense for me. It is similar to my current boot, the (Tecnica) Viva Crush, but has a slightly bigger volume in the foot plus a walk/tour mode. In a place like Jackson, where we hike nearly as much as we ski, it's a huge help to have a hinged cuff for the uphill slog. Despite my racing and competition background, I now often prefer a softer flex for comfort. I work ski patrol and ski hard in my free time, so I spend long hours in my boots. I still want a performance fit, but the softer flex is more comfortable for hiking and standing around. I still get what I need out of the Crossfire when it's time to go downhill." A.J. Cargill
