Description of Scarpa Tornado Pro Alpine Touring Ski Boot:
Equally at home at the resort or in the backcountry, The Scarpa Men's Tornado Pro Alpine Touring Boot gives those who live for the mountains the versatility to tackle any situation. Want to spend a day in your favorite resort? Attach the included super stiff tongue, buckle up these Scarpa boots, step into your alpine bindings, and charge the groomed. The Tornado Pro's Vibram Ride soles won't interfere with your alpine bindings' release mechanism. Scarpa gave the Tornados a lateral cant adjustment system so you can dial in the boot for superior edge hold. When the resort gets tracked out, head for the backcountry. Swap out the stiff tongue for an included softer touring tongue, flip the ski/walk mechanism to tour mode, and make a few laps. With just enough flex in the right places, the Tornado will tour comfortably but rip through crud, powder, or any other type of snow on the way down.

Bottom Line: Resort or backcountry, AT or alpine, rip it up with the Scarpa Tornado Pro Alpine Touring Ski Boots.

Good stuff   02-15-07

Only drawback to this boot is the lack of a rocker sole. I can get over that because I'm more likely to wear tennies and pack the boots during the hiking season. As for touring, once you unlock the pivot and a few buckles, these boots were just a flexible when compared side-by-side (one on each foot) with a pair of Megarides. You can make a stiff boot flex, but you can't make a flexible boot stiff - and a stiff boot rocks for the variable backcountry snow conditions here on the Front Range. So far, so good. I matched these with some Naxos - a binding so well pivoted you hardly even need an AT boot anyway. My fit was 1 finger between the heal and the shell with my toes just contacting the front - and I'd say that's about perfect. The thermomold thing fixes the rest. A few shops wanted to put me into a 1.5-2 finger kind of fit, but in the end I think that kind of fit is more appropriate for an alpine boot with no thermomold. Feels way too tight before thermomold, perfect after. My toes do contact the front with a little pressure when touring, but boots too loose, after packing out, can produce "hammering" of the front toe, which is much worse.

The new Pro model is even better than the "old" Tornado model. The shell seems stiffer and the boot feels more precise when skiing hard.

GREAT Boots!   01-22-07

I bought these specifically for "working". I'm an ambassador at Killington, and ski mostly lift-served. These promised to drive my front side skis (stiff w/DIN sole) and be comfortable (walk switch and heat fit liner). Once the fitting was done by a local shop, I can put these on at 7:30AM and not touch them until I take them off at 5:00PM. Simply great. Delivered all that I wanted and perhaps more. Thanks.
