HEAD FORMULA 120 BOOT 21/22
The HEAD Formula 120 represents a "formulaic" approach to high performance, taking the elite racing technology from the Raptor series and re-engineering it for a wider range of resort skiers. It bridges the gap between a narrow race fit and a generous comfort fit, utilizing a 100mm last that provides a "Goldilocks" feel for many secure enough for aggressive carving, yet roomy enough for all-day circulation.
Key Features:
- Race-Inspired Engineering: The "Formula" DNA features a Race Balance Stance that positions the skier in a more centered, athletic posture. This anatomical alignment allows for better control over modern wide-waisted skis and reduces quad fatigue.
- Liquid Fit Technology: The 3D Pro Formula liner is compatible with HEAD's Liquid Fit system. A technician can inject a paraffin-based material into the heel and ankle pockets to create a precise, customized hold that eliminates "heel lift" without creating painful pressure points.
- Adjustable Flex (130 to 120): A screw mechanism on the rear of the spine allows you to tune the boot’s stiffness. You can run it at 130 for maximum response on firm morning ice, or dial it back to 120 for a more forgiving feel in variable afternoon conditions.
- Extended Toe Box: By lengthening the toe area, HEAD has improved toe articulation and circulation. This translates to warmer feet and a better sense of balance through the forefoot.
- Spine-Flex Buckles: Features four micro-adjustable, low-profile buckles that flex with the shell. This ensures a constant, even wrap around the foot that doesn't create "flat spots" or pinch points when the boot is flexed forward.
- Athletic Wrap: A 50mm Velcro power strap acts as a "fifth buckle," providing a powerful connection at the top of the cuff for immediate energy transmission to the ski.
