Features
Direct-Connect Mounting System: Direct-Connect positions boot-mounting hardware directly beneath the foot's natural balance and mobility centers: the heel and ball of the foot. This eliminates the traditional mounting plate, greatly reducing boot weight, boot drag, and the boot's impact on ski flex. The result is a natural, skier-to-ski connection never experienced before on the water.
Natural Edge Angle: With Direct-Connect, you control the exact edge angle you desire, without being limited to the binary on/off edge pressure of a traditional boot plate. Just like an airplane rolls about its longitudinal axis, HO's Direct-Connect allows a slalom ski to roll about is longitudinal axis. The result is a natural edge angle feel where the skier is in complete control of their angle.
Flex Footprint: The Direct-Connect System reduces the ski boot's flex footprint dead spot by up to 50%. The ski is allowed to flex more closely to its intended design, allowing for smoother and tighter slalom turns.
Micro Adjustment: Micro-adjustment allows skiers infinite fore and aft boot adjustment. Now skiers can fine-tune boot position as accurately as fin location, ensuring optimum ski setup. In addition, Direct-Connect allows for up to +/- 7° of boot rotation.
