.900 race winning shoes

Post by nils » Monday 13 January 2014, 8:58

We all know our beloved .900 is the best alpine boot ever made...after years of .950 racing supremacy, the .900 is getting attention 12 years after it was produced:

I wonder if any sports see people winning races with equipment made 12-14 years ago!!!

( also means your .900 is worth gold: the more we keep them, the more they worth...but when somebody finally makes a good copy...price will fall quick...gambling gambling!)

First of all I wanted to congratulate Alexander Bergmann for this result!

He is also sometimes active in this forum, his nick is called "Bergschuh" and sells nice boards by the way. :wink:

it seems that with the increasing use of pivot/slider plate systems, the boot flex is less of a dominant factor.
