Product Details
The Booster Strap is an essential item for improving how your ski boots perform. The strap enhances response to maximize ski control, increases comfort, and helps prevent shin bang and other common boot issues.
This is a medium strength power strap in neon pink and come as a pair.
The Booster strap eliminates any excess space between your shin and tongue of your boots. Its elastic response varies among the different strap models to better meet your needs.
Select your strap power level based on your technique, weight and height, and skiing discipline. The medium is the most common strap to use.
Installation Guide
- Remove the old strap and keep the old fastening screws, or replace them If they cannot be reused
- Wear the ski boot and place the Booster as shown in the picture, so that the elastic portion is placed above the tongue and under the plastic in the front and with the cam buckle facing outward. Place the strap in the rear plastic above the old holes.
- Tension the strap by pulling it according to your preference while holding it on the back to keep the writing "Booster” in the front
- While keeping the preferred tension move the strap to center the writing "Booster" above the front tongue.
- Make hole/holes in the strap with an awl in correspondence of the hole/holes in the plastic of the old strap.
- Fix the Booster strap to your boot.
How to adjust
- For maximum performance the Booster strap should be routed outside the rear spoiler and inside the plastic shell up against the tongue in front
- The elastic must be stretched to be effective. Begin by stretching 2 cm.
- If on your very first turn you don't notice a dramatic difference in ski response the Booster strap is too loose or installed incorrectly
- On the other hand, if after a few turns it feels like something is pushing you backwards the Booster is too tight
- The greater the stretch the greater the performance enhancement. However be careful not to over stretch.
- Adjust the tension according to your technique, discipline and snow conditions.
- Keep in mind that as in any sport your skill level improves with experience so your Booster settings may vary with time. Adjust to your skill level.
