What's the difference?

[T-hall-sig]

Is there a difference between the "ski" and "walk" settings on ski boots?

If so, what is the difference?

 

[jedi.Jim]

You use the "ski" setting for skiing and the "walk" setting for walking. I'm not too sure what else you would use each for.

 

[Thenowhereman42]

not really

do boots still have those?

 

[Slinger1x1]

uhhh, i guess the walk feature allows the boot to flew more

 

[neon1peace]

um.... sounds right

 

[huge-go]

The walk setting is softer. Boots that have those though are usually really soft to begin with anyway, and are usually for the weekend warrior gaper types.

 

[k-rob]

"walk" lets you flex the boots more so that you don't have as much of that awkward swagger we usually do. don't ski with it set to "walk."

 

[Silence]

I would buy boots without a walk mode

 

[Powdered_Donuts]

forgive me but, full tilts?

 

[mmckechnie]

pretty sure the difference is negligible. my friend sometimes accidentally skis with one on ski and one on walk, and he doesn't notice it

[IceCreamer]
