Product Info

An all-new offering for the 2016-2017 season, the Dalbello Lupo Carbon TI ID Alpine Touring Ski Boots bridge the gap between ultra-lightweight alpine touring and pedal-to-the-metal freeride charging. Weighing in at a feathery 1650 grams thanks to their primarily carbon fiber construction, there's no doubt that these puppies are light, but what's most impressive is that they also maintain a burly and aggressive flex rating of 130. So what does all this mean? Basically you can rip some in-bounds laps on your extra fatty pow sticks while the gettin' is good, then transition over to backcountry touring on your lightweight tech setup after the resort's been tracked out -- all without having to change boots! Gone are the days of hauling around 3 pairs of boots to accommodate your various binding systems, the Dalbello Lupo Carbon TI ID Alpine Touring Ski Boots are changing the game, and they're doing it in impeccable style.

Product Details

Fit

Last: 98 mmThis performance fitting Cabrio Design Architecture last shape features precise tapering in rearfoot and Achilles zones with narrow forefoot volume. Dalbello's most accurate and close fitting anatomic last shape features innovative My Fit technology.

Contour 4Contour 4 Technology is a revolutionary technological advance in performance ski boot fitting. The anatomical contours of the inside sidewalls of the boot-shell, as well as the innerboot lasts, are precisely “mapped” to the shape of the typical high performance skier’s foot. A little extra “space” is molded into the inside of the boot shell at 4 critical fit points: ankle, heel, 5th metatarsal, and navicular. Contour 4 represents the first level of Dalbello's My Fit System.

Cuff HyperbandThis wide profile shin pad offers extreme versatility, low friction and fit & function.

My Fit SystemThe Dalbello legendary fit got an upgrade in more than 60% of the boot range thanks to the My Fit System. Liner and shell can now be thermo customized in addition to the pre-molded Contour 4 shell which is included in every My Fit boot.

Flex

Flex: 130As stiff as a freeride boot gets; meant for expert skiers who know where they're going and intend on doing it quickly.

Kinetic Response TongueHighly resilient polyamide flex ribbed tongue stays in permanent contact with the leg for improved responsiveness and control. Interchangeable flex stiffness.

Liner

ID Max Hike Light100% customizable liners in 10 minutes. Medium and high density Intuition EVA foam; tongue overlapping design; balanced and firm foot hold; maximum shock absorption and compression resistance; warmest/lightest foam; lace up closure; easy flex walking functionality

Shell Materials

3 Piece ArchitectureDalbello’s critically acclaimed, 3 Piece Cabrio Design architecture has been the cornerstone of their top performance, all mountain and freestyle models for more than a decade. This unique construction combines a 3 piece construction assembly - shell/cuff/tongue – that comfortably secures the foot and lower leg while optimizing smooth and progressive flexibility. Dalbello’s Cabrio models provide the ultimate in responsive performance to ski your best. Accept no imitations.

Green Line Polymers®Dalbello is the first ski company to use high density polyethylene plastic from Green Line, which is sourced from post-industrial and post consumer HDPE scrap and recycled directly into environmentally-friendly products rather than a landfill.

Stance

Dynamically Balanced StanceFoot angle, cant angle, and cuff inclination engineered into the shell and cuff positions skiers in a balanced and centered stance for optimum dynamic performance.

Low Cuff Hinge PointHigh leverage cuff assembly with hinge points mounted approximately 10 cm lower than standard construction boot designs. The low hinging cuff permits the boot cuff to more easily follow the natural movement of the skier’s legs because it has a longer range of forward and rearward hinging motion.

Adjustable Twin Cuff AlignmentPermits skiers to align the lateral inclination of the upper cuff to the skier’s leg. Outside and inside hinge cuff alignment using 5mm hex tool, rotate the mechanism clockwise, or counterclockwise, to align boot cuff to desired position.

Ski/Walk Mode

Ski/Hike MechanismSolid and sturdy cuff lock/unlock mechanism releases the upper cuff from the lower shell permitting free hinging rotation for an extended range of motion for hiking or climbing. Engineered for maximum performance and power transfer when engaged in “lock” position.

Cuff Range MovementThanks to its construction, the Lupo Carbon T.I. cuff offers one of the highest range of motions available in the market at 67° (40° Forward Lean, 27° Backward Lean).

Removable TongueTaken away easily with only one hand, the removed tongue offers endless forward lean movement while hiking and great skiing performance for downhilling due to it's 130 flex.

Buckles

Micro-Adjustable Aluminum BucklesA simple turn of a buckle! Micrometer buckles are easy to use for easy fit customization.

Inverted Forefoot BuckleForefoot closure buckle above the instep is inverted and designed to close on the top of the boot shell, not on the side. The top closure positioning prevents buckle breakage and bending during rail slides, grinds, falls, and transitions.

Dynalink Rearfoot RetentionDynalink is an independently functioning heel/instep closure band assembly that secures the skiers foot in the middle and rearfoot sections of the ski boot.

Screwed RivetsDalbello uses high quality screwed rivets (as opposed to permanent “crimped” rivets) to allow for easier bootfitter access and repair.

Sole

Grip WalkThe new boot sole-binding system for increased walking comfort and improved natural gait thanks to a rockered rubber sole. Deep lugs are slip-resistant to provide better traction. Compatible with all "Grip Walk Ready" alpine bindings as well as tech bindings.

Xtra-Grip™ / Quadralock Stability PylonsReplaceable high traction composite polyurethane toes & heels. Lightweight and durable textured design for improved traction on all surfaces + anti slip functionality. The high durometer, reinforced polyurethane Quadralock Stability Pylons provide solid boot to binding interface at 4 points, minimizing sole compression and flex.

Touring SoleThe LUPO T.I. comes equipped with Alpine Touring Norm boot soles (ISO 9523), for walking in comfort and skiing performance.

Alpine DIN Soles (ISO 5355) Sold Separately
