Alpina Elite Racing ECL 2.0 | Classic Boots

The new Alpina ECL 2.0 Classic is an elite racing-level, high-performance World Cup classic boot designed for competitive athletes.

Ultra light carbon construction, ultra high performance

The world`s lightest, most responsive ski boots are changing the way we ski - and win!

An extremely light anatomic, single piece carbon chassis with pliable sole flex and adaptable heel pocket delivers maximum longitudinal stability and superior responsiveness and power transmission .As a result the skier maintains correct body posture and effective equilibrium body position while running.

TX-Loop Lacing
The combination of laces and textile bands exploits the friction between lace and loop. This allows the efficient transfer of lacing forces through the entire foot and provides a strong yet comfortable grip between the shoe and the foot. Plus on-off is easy.

Soft Flex
Soft flex - classic technique The shoe design, together with component parts and materials provides a high degree of flexural rigidity, which delivers maximum power and control using the classical technique.

Race last
Last for each type and category of shoe are developed according to the very specific functional requirements of the shoe and the desired level of comfort and grip. They are formed on the basis of experience, knowledge, skills and practices, and with the help of digital research (scanning) the large number of feet; they take inot account the huge variety and diversity of shapes of feet (metatharsal volume and width, heel volume and curvature of the heel arch, a vriety of shapes and psitions of the bones of the ankle; height, size and curvature of the instep of the foot, etc.) Along with the design and shape of the internal soft part of the shoe, offering optimum grip so wide and narrow, as well as high and low forms of the feet.

Gaiter
One-piece seamless, covers shoe and lower leg completely, water-tight, with water-tight zipper, elastic; protects against cold, water, moisture and snow, shoe instep adaptable to different foot shapes

F1 active edge chassis (classic)
Carbon made, anatomic, toe & heel plate TPU made (thermoplastic polyurethane), toe & heel plate directly integrated to carbon made chassis, 'Active Edge' heel counter, ‘free heel‘ construction, extremely light, 'soft' sole flex, toe plate NNN compatible, adaptable heel pocket, maximum chassis total weight reduction, maximum longitudinal stiffness stability, superior responsiveness and power transmission by foot to the ski, effective equilibrium body position control and correct body posture control while running, optimal foot and ankle fit, minimum heel stress chassis = one piece made sole and heel counter with integrated toe and heel plate. 'active edge' = special sandwich (carbon textile out and in layer combined with rubber intermediate layer) made chassis structure for soft and heel foot shape adaptable heel counter edges.

Anatomic Footbed
Insole contributes significantly to the vertical stability of the foot, providing a high level of comfort and improves the thermal inslulation of the shoe..
