The HO Stance 130 Atop waterski boot is the new foundation for their ski boot range, taking the comfort of the Freemax and increasing the structural design of the boot to provide an all-new mid-range model. The traditional Stance model winds back the clock to give you your classic 6 holes outer screw pattern, allowing this boot to fit on any ski but don’t stress because everything else you love about a HO boot remains the same. With a stiffer full wrap upper cuff, the Stance now offers considerable support laterally without sacrificing any power and increasing responsiveness. The outer cuff and inner liner are built in a 175mm cuff height allowing the boot to sit perfectly around the ankle and not hinder leg movement. All this finally comes together with comfort, a contoured footbed, and updated lining to allow for maximum feel.
Waterski Features
Rocker
- Pre-Flexed Continuous Rockerline – A pre-flexed rockerline gives a naturally aggressive shaped continuous rockerline through the tip and tail of the ski, meaning no matter how you ski or where you stand on the ski, you will always get tight turns and maximum hold.
- Reduced Rocker Underfoot – Gives the skier a more stable platform to centre from and initiate their next move
- High Rocker Tip – The increased rocker angle in the tip means earlier and more aggressive turn initiation, getting you through the turn tighter and faster.
Flex
- Flex Rating(1=Soft, 10=Stiff) – 6/10
Core
- PU Core – The most well-known core in waterskiing. A durable, slightly softer material, meaning you can ski for longer and not feel as tired while getting more flex into turns and less rebound crossing the wash.
Laminates
- Carbon Laminates – A traditional carbon laminate layer that is tried and proven. Adding a snappy element to your ski, driving response through your cut and turns.
Shape
- Hybrid Width – Essentially a mid-wide construction, sitting halfway between traditional and widebody skis. This creates natural and smooth instinctive turns, no matter what speed you want to ski at.
- Reduced Edge Bevel – Reduces drag, giving you a more natural free-flowing feel when on edge
- Clean Edge 3.0 Tail – A tapered edge from the base of the back foot to the tail reduces the ski’s drag by around 50%
Concave
- Deep Concave – Naturally creates stability while on edge and through your turns, balancing out the speed created by the clean edge technology.
