Roll over to the next page for next season best BOOTSBOOTS

Can a boot be any brighter? Probably not. And probably not as well constructed than this one. It combines the brand’s years of experience with that of their pro riders.

If you’re looking for a cheap yet stylish bootie to wrap your ankles in, go for the Flame. It’s comfy, supportive and very stylie thanks to snake skin and embroidery details.

No matter how much time you spend in them, these boots won’t let you down. They’re super smooth and comfy, that’s probably why Natasza Zurek and Molly Aguirre can spend a whole season in them.

Nearly every girl has a little shoe fetish. The classy, stylish leather look of the Lotus can almost make you forget about the great features that lie beneath the pretty surface like boa, ergonomic tongue, ankle harness and so on.

The Format is a good choice if you want to have a stiff boot for maxed-out support yet flexible and easy when riding park. The FGel also makes landings super soft for your footsies.

Is there anyone out there who hasn’t experienced foot cramps and heal lift? Have an affair with these boots and you won’t get either!

When you get stitch on the mountain, it’s probably because you’re not breathing properly. With Salomon’s unique breathable Exhale Liner by Salomon, even if you’re holding your breath, your feet wont be! And guess what, it also helps eliminate bad smells…

You can say what you like about boa lacing systems, but there’s no denying they make boots tight and snug. The boa system on the Aura makes the boot perfect for riding deep powder lines or charging full pelt.

And on the last page you’ll find the sickest BINDINGS for 2010!BINDINGS

You’re looking for easy entry but don’t really trust those systems for all conditions? Then the Dual Entry System is the answer: strap on the regular way in steep powder fields and hop in through the rear door on flat slopes.

After years of getting smaller, highbacks are making a high comeback. In this case a winged one, which gives extra support and adds power to your turns without missing out on the softness and flexibility you need for those tweaked freestyle moves.

This is the first and so far only women specific binding Flux have done, but with a gem like this you need no other. The solid chair highback transfers the power evenly and the comfy base and straps give you natural flex and feel.

It doesn’t always have to be pink and flowery or spikes and studs, some girls also like something in between. The Journal has the design nailed as well as good flex and construction.

So ahead of its time, this binding has an auto open feature, is super light and adjustable without any tools and has a convertible toe strap. Plus it’s super colourful and bright – could it be any more 2011?

We all know that men and women come from different planets, which is why they also need different bases for their bindings. This women specific binding is 20% more flexible without loosing foothold.

This binding makes it easy to shift from park to backcountry because it’s super light, with medium flex and highback rotation to give exactly the support you need.

Snowsistas will love this aluminium lightweight binding with fastec easy entry and asymmetric rotateable highback.

More technology doesn’t necessarily mean a better binding. This binding is simple yet still super comfy, responsive and also incredibly light.
