Hi it's andrew from back country skiing. Canada.com we're here at boulder hut adventures you can see the hut behind us here. Just wrapping up a week of fun ski touring and want to talk to you about the tour one waner 112 we've been. Checking out for the weekend for. Most of the season actually the tour one. Is one of three constructions options. Offered by dps you also have a pure. Three which is a stiffer somewhat heavier ski and a hybrid which is has. Some carbon but more traditional construction as well this is new this year I'd have to say the most remarkable thing about the thing about it is its weight the weight for the tour one is. Only one thousand five hundred and. Fifty grams and that's for 184 ski this. Is the 184 ski that we have here let's remarkably light especially with a benefit binding as we have them here just saying a little bit about the dimensions 141 at the tip 112 here and. 126 excuse me 128 here we've also reviewed. The regular construction of the winter. 112 if you'd like to see that review check it out right here so what's. Different about the tour one construction is its it's also a prep reg. Carbon glass fiber laminate construction. Unlike the regular winter 112 there's a. Full cap here you can see here and there's a balsa core and textured. Polymide talk is what the top sheet is. And also like many dps skis they call. This paddle tech which means it's wider. At this point here so we've had a. Variety of conditions here at boulder. Hut over the week and this is a perfect. Ski for good conditions it's outstanding. On the up track because it's remarkably light like way lighter than anything. That i personally have ever skied. But when you get into hard pack. Conditions or gender. You know breakable cross stuff like that it might not be the ski to go with but. In the powder that we've had this week it was awesome and it's a great. All-around ski so again this is the dps. Winner 112 tours one and just saying now. It comes in a 168 a 184 and a 190 cm i. Wouldn't recommend this as a one quiver. Ski its kind of specialty ski because. It's its so lightweight it's not really. You can't really ski it very effectively on the area but it's the perfect tool. For good conditions back country missions. Especially long ones that's it. Andrew from back country skiing canada if you'd like to see more reviews and read trip reports and read the forum's go to. Backcountry skiing canada calm thank you.

When you're touring and you flick this it's amazing the range of motion obviously that you have without undoing. That top class so it's very precise for. Where you want to put your foot but feels really freaked she's good i guess if you can do this if you want and you loosen it rights up when you're throwing to it makes it even easier the side. To side motion business and kind of see. Here it's on an angle makes it better yeah i like that i just. Kind of want to see if snow entry is any. Issue with this it's a mountaineering boot so times are gonna happen when you do get off your skis obviously and start. Postholing up there's something nasty and big i don't know if he'll be full walk mode like this or not but likely so. You can see i mean that keeps a lot of the snow out which is really nice that tall boots all gator and then. There's that cuff area so without doing. Anything to it i just clamp that yep. Clamps i don't think i can feel it but it's in. There it's definitely in there so i. Don't know yeah but other than that i. Mean boots sure does skin nice that's very comfortable and free feeling and. Light and on off-camber type stuff it. Sure allows you to keep a full skin contact if you choose so yeah so far so. Good okay so now it's time for the book. Review inside instead of in the rain so. There it is size 27 and there's our weight pretty. Simple little scale one boot 1.3 6. Kilograms so super light obviously. Especially when you're looking at something that is as strong as skiing boot as it is so that's nice so good weight on the boot now, and we look at the liners you'll see there are two liners that this boot is using this. Is the support liner the support liner. Are they're stronger liner it's nice just. A good flex motion in the back of flexes. Going in the back so you can get lots of easily easy angulation with this boot is. The cuff of the boot certainly allows it, so we don't want the liner to restrict that different densities of foam nice. And stiff through the top and the tongue so lots of support through their nice moldable down through the bottom which is great and then obviously our character being a mountaineering company they're thinking about using liners like this if you have to be drawing your liners you're wearing them alone not in a boot you can see you've got a rubber. Bottom to that boot which is going to. Give you a lot better traction if necessary but just durability as well so. Into the actual boot itself the plastics this is where all the magic is in this boot a few things that i really. Like i love how dry this boot is with this. Zipper that does up from the front of the boot it keeps this entire structure. Quite watertight as you can see that you. Tough and that gator around the top it's going to keep a lot of snow out so when you have that boot opened and you are in tour mode and a lot of other boots you. Collect a lot of snow through here through buckles and into the boot so you have a lot of water entry into this whole boot system that's not the case with this. Which is really nice to see it's in front of the boot as you can see has the rubber rand to it that's a thermoformed. Rand it's not going to pull away from that gives you much better durability. And some add its stickiness if you are. Climbing and using this boot from a mountaineering standpoint to have a hard. Plastic toe that can skate off is not a. Good scenario so having this is going to make a big difference for people its ultimate comfort when they are climbing and not using it with their skis and you. Can see it's a very burly soul the soul that's on there is not one of these super lightweight soles that's going to. Disintegrate in one season of use that's. A full proper vibrational go it's a. Mountaineering sole great to see that. Obviously works with pins it's what it's made for it's the only way it's going to work but from a standpoint of moving in. The mountains it's great to have that security on your feet so all in all i. Have to say that our caraxes nu pro kline. Boot walks as i would expect it to walk. And skis much better so i think it's. Going to be it's its definitely worthy of carrying the arc'teryx name hope you enjoy it.

Hi every country in canada my name is radhika I'm the photo line manager for artery scooter we're here at auto. Retailer for launching our new which is. Called a proc line it's quite of an interesting design i think pretty innovative in the industry and it's go. Back to you when we started the super process for a telex really decided to target our core consumers all our outreach them guys enjoy the mountains. To design footwear for them obviously we. Couldn't forget that during winter all. These people are skiing and climbing during winter condition with snow, so we. Really wanted to offer them as well boot which was a design particularly for their activity to deliver the best level of climbing asking for the technique of the most technical environment arrived when we came back to the design concept. Of this boot idea was like what's the main missing thing today in the ski boot. Industry there is one thing this is physically something which is able to climb very hard without the need of. Compromising with a climbing performance those two surfaces why because today and I've finished which you want to climb something very technical in winter it. Has to take ski boots and skis to approach the face to climb that i think the roots to do and if you want to have the best level of talent performances he has to take a second pair of alpine climbing which became 12 best in terms. Of climbing all he has to climb with his advice move through these touring boots which is obviously a compromise in terms of climbing and any performances so here we wanted ready to make to close this gap we solve this problem, and we really try to design an i braid in between an alpine climbing boots and a ski touring the first issue the first problem we try. To solve is really clear very simple is on that the way a boot walks compared to. A class from alpine canyon boots and the first issue is obviously on their on. Their own the cat design because you know every ski through a moose t-they works in this way, so we have a. Vertical rotation while an alpine climbing boot as a post off total ankle. Mobility which is really key to use crampons in environments so that's actually the first cuff design which allows for a. Vertical and the lateral rotation to. Have really the best in terms of climbing and skinning your students it's. A potential design which is really nobody it's a double it's a split car. Design two parts cuff with aria spoiler which engage mechanical you need to make this very solid this design obviously as. I said is designed for improving the climbing performances so for having really way perfect use of crampons and. Climbing the most technical routes in winter but obviously this is also a feature which delivers amazing dynasty for everybody in every country because this speed cap design the rotation on the calf allow for very natural walking in any condition obviously also it skins. So on your skin in that feel that the leave us for incredible the skin bein serious especially those thick traverses thus allows you for using and. Controlling the whisky and the skins was better than any other ski touring boots names so it's a very big improvement for everybody in the background the second problem wants to solve goes. Really back on the protection so every technical alpine climbing boots for winter today has a gator to float that from snow and water and here we wear so basically made the first ski boot with a full gator which the rivers are full. Snow and water protection again it's a snow proof system and some water resistant design with the zipper to act. To access to be extra step realistic again it's a first in order to design a. Full gator boot or full gator scheme. The third the design solution which you really tackle which is also very important i will say it's on the back of the back of the side we want to design the backer for our shell which was basically totally protected so there is. No lateral exposure again for protection. Obviously while climbing and also while skimming on deep snow tracks who don't have their unwanted releases of the back. Of this battle is also a potential design is an i braid between a bar code system and a closure cable system such. As a bar iv the benefit of both designs why first of all we have the can o'clock. The fully aluminum bar code which with. A very strong mechanic lock on the heat for the helos for the ski performances but also thanks to the cable which is sliding inside the buckle so basically but when you close the bar code you also tighten the cable and tighten the force. So it's basically working as a cable design systems there's a bar but with the full benefit on buckle design we. Also have a third battery design here in the booth which is on the power strap the power strap is a very important. Element for the ski performances it allows for a very you know high locking points and for a very diatribes mission of the power wall scheme the power strap are all most of them are with the biker base and it's a very big problem sometimes for your times in your doing you don't wanna have these on one have digraph sticky on your pants and damaged in them so here we design a power subsystem which won't the cam design so basically it's a pool. System you just physically release it by pulling and pull the tab to close it. Very efficient very fast in transition and a very efficient closure design thanks to the same stress ball forward enforcement fear which really adapts the gun it has also really released hook for. Isis the penis the power turns of. Matthias we have state of the art of matthias food.we lamichael for very high level of rigidity and durable and you. No rigidity and performance at all temperature we have carbon fiber calf. With over ejection of green man for. Protection on the pivot point a carbon fiber charge the gorilla mean the spoiler for really strong rigidity we have also rubber toe cap which is designed for protection of the calf and if you're climbing on rocks without crampons to give a certain amount of greater perfection these ball mounts all. Designed for mountaineering a lot of rabbles of our ability on the toe very high level of grip and performance is meant for climbing with a very short so length to 35 millimeters for the 27.5. Mundo points or one of the shortest in the industry and that's we offer the. Boots in two different option that's a proclaim carbon so the top of the end which comes with the carbon fiber calf which retails about i think one thousand. Us dollars not sure about the canadian dollars we have a version as well with the three limit cap, so we have the carbon fiber which retails at under fifty us dollar we offer the moon with. Two different option of liners a support liner which is a little heavier but hannah graham cider than the other ones with a bit more supportive cap design for you by the ski performances, and we have altered lies with the light liner which is lighter and has a little bit less durability professionally the boot. Waits for the proline carbone with light liner is about 1 kilo 100 grams 4% 1/5. And about what you know to android for the support driver on the compilation thank you very much have a great day.

Greetings from the drezna hut we're high up in the stew buyouts weren't we're just here for a few days testing the new arc'teryx pro klein carbon light ski tour okay first acquaintance it's a. Funny-looking thing it's got fully dinner fit compatible pin binding. Inserts I've gone for a vibram rubber on there so it's got a plastic shell but the upper this is actually the shell here this is just a nylon cuff really lightweight cup but unzips to reveal the. Aligner inside this is the light liner. This is the most sort of agile. Compromise between lightweight flexibility and ski touring and ability uphill from ounce an earring but also giving enough support for the downhill performance you can get a support liner that's a much beefier thing with a much more supportive tongue to upgrade the. Skiing characteristics of the boot most. Amazing thing about this boot is this carbon cuff it's absolutely incredibly high-tech feature they put a very cunning bushing. Between here and the aramid shall the other thing is that the cuff is an integral part of the water-ski mechanism, so we'll see later on when we get on the slopes the incredible skinning and cramp on in capability of. This boot but when we want to lock it down into ski mode it's simply locates. These lugs with one single click. The amazing thing about these boots is. That when you pull them into walk mode. And they release you don't have to. Bother undoing all the rest of the boot when we're skinning on i see Travis is when we scramble up rocks or when. We're come putting on hard i see slopes, but we can keep it beautifully tightly. Done up so the foot stays solid in the boot ordinarily in a ski touring boot. You only get flexibility for a raft but with this incredible cuff design you get a little bit of flexibility side to side we're actually able to roll the skis a. Little bit over onto their side like that now that's great of course both. When we're skinning on an icy Travis to get a better grip with the skins it's also great when we crump on him being able to get the points of our crampons into the slope course what you really. No using flexibility where suddenly. When you're skinning your really only. Limited by the flex in your ankle not flexing the boot at all. This week we've skied absolutely icp. Star-crossed trod which gets a really. Beautiful soft snow the biggest compliment i can give these boots is that they're utterly forgettable I've never once had to think about what i had on my feet now actually given the challenging conditions we've had that really is a complement indeed now i ski. This size of boot in just about every other brand but putting these on the first thing that strikes me is just how small and precise they are now around the heel that's a really good thing because it means there's absolutely no lift no slippage and no rubbing when you're skinning but across the front of the boot it just means that they're really super tight now if they fit the shape of your firm that will be fantastic, and they really are a precise fitting boot so if you were going to buy a pair of these boots buy them from a really good quality boot fitter get a shell that fits you nice as snug and make sure they fit them out properly for you arc'teryx if you're going to make a boot this narrow and this much of a precision fit can we have a wide version please.
