salomon 83 exp ski boots Women's X PRO R80 Performance Upgrade predictable flex and lightness Salomon X Pro 80 Ski

I chose the 70.3h version

With the same features as the Custom, this Burton board rocks a super-fast sintered WFO Vision base which supplies all the speed you need to hit a massive backcountry gap

Our favorites include extras like charging ports, long-distance turbo modes, emergency strobe options, and red light for strain-free night vision

The light does have an electronic switch, and as with all electronic switches, there might be some parasitic drain

The side switch controls brightness levels and on/off, and it's similar to the current crop of Olight e-switches, with integrated output mode indicators and battery indicators on either side of the switch bezel

In particular, I loved the Talkback on some of the early spring morning steep stuff: strong edge-hold, quick turning, stable, but will forgive you, if for example you forget to put your boots back in ski mode before starting down a frozen couloir
