HIGH-PERFORMANCE SKI BOOTS: The extensively improved Panterra 120 GW with Powercage technology combines legendary fit and dynamics with great support and comfort and easy entry and exit; this is the model with less flex for sporty skiers who value perfect power transmission as well as the capacity for individual adjustment
CABRIO CONSTRUCTION: Skiers looking for a smooth, easy ride with versatile performance will benefit from Cabrio's skiing characteristics, with shock absorption and a progressive flex for all day skiing with less fatigue, easy handling, and versatility, cabrio boots are also much easier to get on and off than other designs
ADJUSTABLE BUCKLES: High quality aluminum buckles offer light weight along with easy closure and adjustment; they permit skiers to precisely "fine tune" buckle closure tension for a more exact fit, with micro adjustment, you can twist the buckle to make it longer or shorter
VARIABLE VOLUME FIT: Innovative VVF system (Variable Volume Fit) accommodates a wide variety of foot shapes with max foothold and exceptional comfort, thanks to the ability of the forefoot buckle to pull the lower shell in as it tightens
INSTANT FIT LINERS: A mixture of EVA and other materials is designed to deliver the right blend of padding, comfort and support to your ski boots; instant Fit liners can also be instantly broken in, since they are heat moldable
Description
Dalbello's Panterra 120 has been a staple in their collection and it continues to be to this day. The Panterra is an easy to put on 120 flex boot, that is a little softer and more forgiving feeling at the top of the flex - just the nature of cabrio boots. Lateral response is exceptional and it has a walk mode -- score!
How's the fit? A true 102 mm last, with a slightly longer toe box. Heel is a bit wider than some other 102mm lasts and the instep is generous. Cuff is accomdating for some larger more athletic calves. Too much pressure on the tips of your ankle bones is the red flag for this boot as it's a bit more difficult to adjust with boot work due to being a cabrio shell. In general the Panterra is a comfort oriented fit.
