Rossignol X8 Skate FW Boot

Built on a women specific last, the X8s are specifically designed to deliver a stiff and powerful feel, without sacrificing a bit of comfort in the process.In terms of fit, the X8s sport an integrated heel lift for easier skating, a flared cuff, and less volume in the cuff for a more precise fit around the ankle. Rossignol also added a heat moldable liner, so you can customize the fit of the boot even further. Support is everything when you want take your skiing to the next level, so Rossignol gave these boots a external plastic heel counter and cuff, then added its Mobile Cuff system for free movement forwards and backwards, while limiting movement from side to side to maintain torsional rigidity.
