D Y N A M I C F R A M E .When skiing 80% of the energy
is transmitted from the body to the ski in the
rear part of the shell. The stiff material (red area)
grants the most efficient transmission reinforcing
the area where you have the highest stress and
the energy is concentrated:
— Hinge area
— Flex adjustment area (cuff – shell connection)
— Rear support area
Forefoot area is less subjected to mechanical
stresses but needs to provide the feeling on the
snow. The 80-20 Dynamic Frame has bee designed
to obtain the best sensitivity and the dynamic
response of the boot sole when to ski is flexing

The strap of the Double Power
Booster Velcro works as a dou-
ble pulley for better closure and a
tighter wrapping on the cuff. The
elastic Booster Strap allows more
dynamical response of the boot.
The result: more precise trans-
mission and faster ski reaction.

Spineflex is a revolutionary buckle concept with a flexible element and a
constant closure point. The flexible element allows the buckle to adapt
to the shell profile and thus provide a homogeneous foot wrapping
independent from the degree of closure. The increased precision and
comfort created from the absence of pressure points results in better
performance.
Modern skiing requires comfort,
efficiency, and control. HEAD‘s
new EVO Frame is built around
the legendary Vector last, but
features a new highly efficient
Dynamic frame which directs
80% of the energy directed
from the body toward the rear of
the shell. This stiff area cradles
the skiers heel with comfort and
power. However, the forefoot is
able to articulate for better bal-
ance.
Forefoot area is less subjected to
mechanical stresses but needs to
provide the feeling on the snow.
The 80-20 Dynamic Frame has been
designed to obtain the best sensitivity
and the dynamic response of the boot
sole when the ski is flexing.
This new shell also has a new hinge
position, 18 mm backward, precisely
located to provide a progressive flex
for expert skiers. With more verti-
cal cuff and flatter boot board, skiers
will find themselves in a very athlet-
ic, but relaxed stance.

Thanks to a new quick entry geometry, the
Cube3 is extremely easy to get into. Simply
tilt back the shaft and step in. In addition,
the 3-buckle construction with an oversized
top buckle allows easy and quick buckling in
and a great, snug fit.

Outside of the binding, the shaft of the
Cube3 is always unlocked, allowing natural
walking. This, in combination with (patend-
ed) SoftWalk heel and grip system on the
heel, makes the Cube a superb walking
boot.
The moment you step into your binding the
patented integrated AutoSkiWalk mecha-
nism blocks the shaft, allowing you to speed
off down the mountain without bowing,
bending or buckling.

The Ski/Tour mechanism is the right combi-
nation between skiing and touring. Providing
a perfect lock of the shell during the downhill
activities for the maximum performance, yet
offering an easy release for the return trip.

The bi-injected Vibram® sole allows
safe hiking on all terrain while
reducing shock absorption as well.
Interchangeable Vibram® Touring Pads, an inno-
vative high performance rubber sole, provides the
maximum grip when hiking on anything from rocks
on a peak to the parking lot ice. Please refer to the
international standard "ISO 9523".
The innovative three piece construction,“Triad
Ergotech Shell”, provides precision and perfor-
mance in any terrain and snow condition.
The boots progressive and natural flex is provided by
the open throat shell, in addition to the interchange-
able tongue and pivot point. The pivot point is placed
where the ankle flexes at the rotating point of the
shell.
The interchangeable tongue allows customization of
the flex to match any snow condition.
An innovative system that help to absorb any impact:
• Shock bumper hinge
• Rear spoiler
• Gel innerboot tongue
• New toe box material
to avoid toe bang
• Footbed and wedge
