We could say that Dalbello Ski Boots are the official ski boots of The Ski Monster.
The reason that we use them is fit, performance, and versatility. The boot is a 98 mm last [widest part of the boot is 98 mm] and the shell is one of the best to work with as far as stretching, grinding, and any other customization goes. This SKI BOOT ROCKS!!!
The boot is a 98 mm last, as far as ski boot lasts go that is on the narrower side, that doesn't mean that you have to have a narrow foot to ski it. Performance boots such as the Krypton's are built to be worked on, or customized. You can't shrink a ski boot, but you can stretch it or grind parts of the boot to allow for a wider or bonier foot to fit in it's narrow shell. Along with being able to work with the shell of the boot, the Krypton is available with an ID liner made my intuition. Intuition makes two different ones for Dalbello; the Gold ID and the Silver ID, the silver being made of less dense foam giving the liner a plusher more forgiving feel. The silver may be a better option for someone with more sensitive feet. The Liner is heated up to 240 degrees farhenheit for 15 minutes (intuition's recomendation) then molded to the skiers foot, by putting the boot on and flexing the boot. For a snugger fit, the molding would be done with the buckles buckled less tight, to allow for the foam to take up more room around the foot, for a less snug fit you would buckle up tighter during the molding.
As far as remolding of the liners goes, I have remolded mine 4 times, due to footbed changes, anytime there is a change to the postion of the foot in the liner a remold is necessary.
A great fitting snug boot is a great performing boot.
I ski in the Krypton Pro, I ski in Krypton's because I needed a boot that was responsive, and didn't kill my shins [shin bang] in the bumps or trees. It is a performer on any part of the mountain, it's unique design makes that possible. Next year I will be switching to the Tanner Hall Pro Model (See Picture).
