About the Nidecker Talon Focus Boa
The 2020 Nidecker Talon snowboard boots are the most technologically advanced boots in Nidecker's range. Designed for demanding riders who require a comfortable, responsive boot with lots of support for all-day riding, the Boa Focus Talon is here to help you push your limits.
The Talon uses Armortech Reinforcements and is constructed to be the stiffest boot of the entire Flow range. This is perfect for riders looking to ride off-piste, charge hard hitting those steep lines with pure speed.
The BOA focus system is the quickest, smoothest and easiest way to tighten up your boots providing even closure with no pressure points. This BOA Focus system uses 2 BOA Coilers over the tongue and side of the boot. The side BOA Coiler provides closure on your ankle to lock down the heel stopping the dreaded heel lift that can occur while riding. This allows a customised fit which can be micro tuned to the riders preferences for ultimate comfort and support.
The Gold-Level liner is packed with amazing tech that provides superior comfort and performance while being extremely light. Built with high density thermo foam, moulding to the shape of your foot for a customised fit that will minimise space in the liner. This liner uses a Ripper Lacing Harness, a Z-lace configuration for a perfect fit while O.C Kush around the ankle helps further improve comfort and heel hold. The list goes on and is further explained in the Features Included section!
The Talon uses Nidecker's top end B.F.T (Bare Foot Technology) Vibram Approach Outsole. This piece of tech has incredible grip in all conditions using a wet/dry compound. An EVA midsole and N-Gel Dampening gel pads are placed in the forefoot and heel to provide the best comfort and support, conforming to your movements, dampening heavy impacts and chatter in rough conditions. This will give you the best connection to your board enabling you to ride harder for longer comfortably.
For extra comfort and protection against the elements the Talon uses a Waterproof Bladder to block snow and water from entering in. The Space Blanket insulation is a thermal insulating barrier between the outsole and the liner keeping heat inside and the cold conditions out while the Silvadur antimicrobial finish in the lining will keep your boots smelling fresh all day long!
To improve all day comfort, Nidecker have redesigned the boot to feature industry leading asymmetric boa lacing, guiding the laces over the flatter areas of your foot for significantly reduced pressure and improved closure. This improves arch support and reduces fatigue for maximum performance on the mountain.
The Talon Focus snowboard boots seriously packs a punch with tech that will support you in every way on the mountain. These are no doubt the best bet for intermediate to advanced riders who want an all mountain boot that has superb abilities to tackle back country with precision, speed and comfort to keep you riding all day, everyday!
