All new to the 24' lineup, the Mindbender 140 BOA® is the stiffest boot we've put on the market. With both high-performance touring capability, and microadjustablity thanks to BOA® Fit System technology-- you're ready to take on both lift-assisted or backcountry endeavors.
BOA® Fit System:
The BOA® Fit System delivers dialed in performance and a micro-adjustable precision fit. It consists of three integral parts: a micro-adjustable dial, lightweight yet extremely strong laces and low-friction lace guides, which are applied in uniquely designed configurations to improve the fit and performance of the boot.
H+i1 DIAL:
Provides micro-adjustable, precision fit and quick release, with quality and durability guaranteed. The BOA dial platform features a breakaway design engineered to eject the dial cartridge upon severe impact without damaging the system, allowing skiers to pop the dial back into the bayonet midmountain. In the unlikely event that the system is broken, it can be easily repaired and replaced.
BOA® FIT SYSTEM: DIALED IN:
Precision fit with on-the-fly tightening and loosening for enhanced responsiveness, optimized pressure distribution, and reduced pressure points.
BOA® FIT SYSTEM: LOCKED IN:
Connected fit designed to uniformly wrap the foot and minimize downward pressure, increasing heel lock-down for improved power and edge-to-edge control.
BOA® FIT SYSTEM: CONFIDENT:
Engineered for confidence and built to withstand rugged terrain and inclement weather, BOA® dials and laces deliver extreme durability. Bayonet and cartridge system ensures continued operation, even after heavy impacts.
MultiFit™ Last:
The MultiFit Last was developed in conjunction with the BOA®
Fit System to accommodate a variety of foot shapes ranging
from 97mm to 104mm, eliminating the need for multiple last options.

Integrated Tech Fittings:
Tech fittings in the toe and heel are fully integrated into the shell injection, allowing for compatibility with both tech bindings and alpine DIN bindings.
