Photon Boa® Step ON Specification:
Dual Zone Boa® System with Sequence™ and Coiler™
The H3+ Coiler with Burton's advanced Sequence Technology is the main closure point for the boot. The Boa Coiler is geared at a ratio of 4:1, ensuring that boot tightening is quick and easy. The innovative Sequence Technology tightens the laces from both the top and bottom towards the centre of the laces. This helps prevent unequal tightening of the laces, which has always been an issue with single Boa closures. To ensure the Photon StepOn delivers ultimate control, it features the StepOn-specific Snugger Ankle Strap; this built-in Boa Coiler strap allows the rider to adjust heel hold and forward flex stiffness.
Imprint™ 3 Liner with Focus Cuff and Hook and Loop Closure
The Imprint 3 Liners features Burton's innovative DRYRIDE Heat Cycle™ technology. This breathable inner lining material utilises interwoven thermally activated carbon thread to capture and reflect heat inwards while wicking moisture away from the foot. The Focus Cuff Heel Hold System boosts heel hold by hugging that sweet spot around your ankle. The Focus Cuff sits slightly higher on the ankle than most other heel hold systems giving increased response and control. To dial in the fit even further, the Imprint 3 Liner can be modified around the ankle by the addition of J Bars. These can be attached and detached quickly via the hook and loop fixings reducing heel lift for even the slimmest of feet. The Hook and Loop closure allows you to obtain a super snug fit on the upper part of the boot. Working similar to a power strap it lets you transmit power effortlessly. To help obtain the perfect fit, the Imprint 3 Liner is constructed from fully heat mouldable foam. This innovative material forms to the contours of your feet, reducing unwanted pressure points.
StepOn® EST®Midsole with Vibram Traction Lug Outsole. Recycled Rubber and Sleeping Bag Reflective Foil,
Vibram® Traction Lug outsole with EcoStep™ rubber provides increased surface area for more contact points that grip the ground in a lighter-weight package with 30% recycled rubber content. The EST® looks beyond the binding to optimise the rider and board interface. By re-engineering the sole, Burton's designers have brought the foot closer to the board, creating a more direct connection. With a lower profile, lighter weight, and a reduced ramp angle, EST® lowers your centre of gravity and improves your feel. Burton adds their Sleeping Bag Reflective Foil to ensure your foot stays warm. This innovative, reflective foil reflects heat back to the feet, improving warmth and comfort in even the coldest conditions.
1:1 Firm Flex PowerUP Tongue
This dual-density tongue construction has been designed to enhance rebound when flexing into the boot. This helps create a livelier and more responsive boot whilst also reducing material breakdown and the boot becoming to soft.
Total Comfort Construction
Get an instantly broken-in feel right out of the box. Total Comfort's industry-exclusive construction eliminates the break-in period for a fit that feels just as good from day 1 to 100.
StepOn® Backstay
This reinforced backstay has been developed exclusively for the StepOn® system, designed to deliver a slightly stiffer flex to offset the effect of the strap being attached to the binding. It also gives a reinforced attachment for the heel cleat.
