DYNAFIT 61804 WOMEN HOJI PRO TOUR SKI TOURING BOOT GREY Size 23-27

Dynafit Hoji Pro Tour: Light Weight and Performance Redefined.
The first ski touring boot for both uphill and downhill.

Take a visionary professional freerider and a renowned low-tech inventor and lock them in the design lab for a few months: that’s how you get products that really are different, not just minor improvements on previous models. That’s exactly what Dynafit did, having athlete Eric “Hoji” Hjorleifson and shoe developer Fritz Barthel doing extensive experimenting, testing, and fine-tuning. The result is the ski touring boot Hoji Pro Tour, an alpine ski touring boot that combines several brand-new features.

Which components does the Hoji Lock system combine?
The Hoji Lock system combines the shaft, spoiler, and shell without backlash, which means the result is a close connection of these three components that completely prevents the shaft from “wobbling,” which inevitably occurs with conventional touring boots and also increases over their service life. This results in a stiffness and a harmonious flex, which are otherwise only available in high-quality alpine boots. Moreover, the top buckle and the power strap are connected to the Hoji Lock, which releases its firm hold when switching to the Walk mode, making for incredible shaft mobility. Switching from walking to riding and back can be done with a lever. No more fumbling with clammy fingers on a thousand buckles and straps.

Which components of the boot let you save so much weight?
The Hoji Lock entails other static conditions that are completely different from “normal” ski boots. This significantly reduces the load on both the shaft joint and the shaft, so that a significantly lower weight is achieved without using exotic materials and with lower wall thicknesses, but this high rigidity can still be achieved.

Superlatives in three crucial areas
The features in overview: The Hoji Pro Tour (in a size 10) weighs in at 3.2 pounds. The newly designed V-shaped tongue and a shaft rotation of 55 degrees offer the necessary flexibility for the ascent. It also used tried and tested technology: The “Speed Nose” ensures agility and dynamism in the Hoji with its reduced toe and offset rotation point.

The innovation for the change to the dynamic Downhill mode is called the “Ultra Lock Strap,” and consists of a technically sophisticated cable system that operates the entire shaft. Thanks to the patent-pending Hoji Lock system, it’s quick and easy to switch between uphill and downhill with a single kick. The ski walking mechanism is connected to the buckles and Ultra Lock Strap via a technically sophisticated cable system.

This way, even when going downhill in demanding terrain, top performances are possible and the Hoji allows freeriders to feel 100% safe. One thing performance-oriented tourers are especially happy about is the fact that the entire mechanism is as easy as pie to operate with one hand and without the annoying need to take off your gloves. This makes it possible to switch quickly yet precisely between ascent and descent mode.
