Last year, the Speed ​​Machine line was introduced, which is a bit Nordic's flag for boots, with the wave of success that it has had was proposed a renewed product based on a new investment called Sport Machine , Which accurately reflects the construction of the Speed ​​Machine but with different volumes, so for a skier who needs different comfort at the dress level. The plates are 102 millimeters, 2 more, but the heel seal is identical to that of the Speed ​​Machine, there is only a slightly more sporty line than the previous line that was thought more for less experienced skiers . Even the infrared technology is replicated in the same way as the Speed ​​Machine, the construction is with a very rigid body and a very soft part with two flaps that greatly facilitate the entry and exit of this boot. The construction has 4 mm in excess of foot volume and calf reaches 19 mm more. All this to ensure a high performance skiing, a taller boot, while maintaining the construction of the shoe with cork, then anatomical, fully customizable. By making a car comparison, the Speed ​​Machine is a coupe sedan while the Sport Machine is a station wagon with the same saloon performance but with larger dimensions.
Content tells us about the Strider, realized because we were asked for something more about the freeride touring. Only at the aesthetic level the levers are constructed in a particular material and reach 37 grams of weight against the usual 50 or so. But you did not want to get to extreme levels with regard to weight while giving you much attention, this is a high performance shoe that can be used at 360 degrees by all skiers who want to manage and live the mountain in all its aspects. In the construction there is the cork, so that the shoe is lighter and more breathable and the rear system facilitates walkability. This year's novelty is the partnership with Michelin exclusively for Nordica: the French company from the top of its great experience in winter tires has redesigned a real rubber compound on the boot plant. The freerider Lorenzo Alesi adds that this shoe immediately gives a feeling of comfort, but its performance is of a high standard, much like freeriders but is also aimed at a wide audience.
Finally Andrea De Pascale of Michelin Technical Soles says that the collaboration with Tecnica and Nordica has lasted for over a year and a half and was based on what their expectations were. After extensive studies, winter tire characteristics have been transferred to the boot, of course with the appropriate modifications, so as to meet both the walkability and the performance of a downhill boot, the boot must maintain a certain type of Both horizontal and vertical grip, permissible by special designs and cushions.
