Rift, Refined
A premium version of the mid-soft team favorite, the Rift APX offers a relaxed flex that's ideal for tweaking grabs and expressing your own riding style. Dual-Dial BOA® laces give you complete control over the fit, while SuperFoam cushioning and a Silver heat-moldable liner ensure total comfort from day one. The APX looks are on point, with groundbreaking seamless panels made from KPU and an Armor-Tech toe to keep your feet dry in even the wettest slush.
FeaturesHeat Moldable Liner
Additional FeaturesThe Rift APX's upgraded outsole features SuperFoam cushioning, a proprietary material that offers insane dampening and rebound. Absorb the heaviest landings in the park and beyond.
Transition Zone tech seamlessly connects the sole to the Exo Spine, accelerating response and preventing damage to the back of the boot when entering or exiting the binding.
The Rift APX is even more weatherproof than the regular Rift, thanks to a seamless KPU lower section and a durable Armor-Tech toe borrowed from Nidecker flagship models.
Construction + MaterialsH4 Coiler
Ready for anything, designed to withstand. The bombproof BOA® H4 Coiler is built for the most demanding riders and resists impacts from park to pow. Its efficient mechanism rapidly takes up lace slack, increasing speed of entry.
3D Liner Support
Awesome foot hold that starts right inside the liner, with 3D molded material and J-bars around the ankle. Minimal movement, maximum control.
Ascent SuperFoam
Fully loaded with our proprietary SuperFoam cushioning, this premium version of our Ascent outsole offers excellent dampening and rebound underfoot. It's a super-durable material that retains its density and shock-absorbent properties winter after winter. Elsewhere, it features the same OC-Kush insert to help soak up heavy landings, and a full rubber tread inspired by geckos for lizard-like traction.
3D Dual Density Insole
Anatomically designed to cradle your foot and constructed from two densities of EVA, with firmer material supporting the heel cup and arch. A fleece-lined footbed with silicone top-print keeps you warm and secure.
BOA®
The industry standard in speed lacing systems. Micro-adjustable for a precise fit and engineered to perform in the toughest conditions.
Lacing + LinerDual-Dial BOA® lets you tighten your boots quickly and easily via two dials. The upper and lower foot can be adjusted independently for a custom fit, and to prioritise maximum power transfer or looser, surfier turns.
Silver Level Liner
Heat molding allows you to customize the fit of our versatile Silver liner, which also features a Custom Flex Zone around the toes for extra wriggle room, 8mm of PE foam and additional PU support. The liner is closed via a separate cuff connected to the inside of the shell, making it a breeze to get on and off. Velcro patches on both sides of the tongue help secure the fit.
