More news from the 2013 SIA show from the Backcountry Skiing Canada crew:
Black Diamond has two new Boots coming out for the 2013/2014 season including the Black Diamond Factor MX 130 and the Black Diamond Shiva MX 110 with the new MX direct connect technology. This technology basically involves how the AT toe and heal pieces are affixed to the boot itself. In the past your binding interfaced with the tow and heal blocks and with MX Direct Connect they now interface with the shell of the boot for better hold and a overall stiffer boot.
The Black Diamond Factor MX 130 and the Black Diamond Shiva MX 110 come in at around 8lb 10 oz with a flex rating of Flex 130 and 110 respectively. The walk mode has Black Diamond's famous 20 degrees forward and 20 degrees reward flex motion. They will retail for $769 and be available in the fall of this year.
Plenty-o-good looking boots.
