Product Spotlight: Burton Hail Snowboard Boots
On 27, Apr 2012 | No Comments | In Updates | By Justin
All hail the Burton Hail! Soft yet supportive, with the fluid motion of a tweaked articulating cuff and the combined cushioning of an oversized airbag plus ultra cush footbed, the Hail boot is simply a staple of Burton’s lineup. The Flex Liner unlocks medial/lateral movement for a more natural feel, while the puffy tongue will not kink, enhances wrap, and softens the pressure of tightly cranked straps.
