Seti ma Fetuunaiga

1. Adaptable Fit System (AFS) - Calf Adjustment

The AFS allows you to adjust the cuff of the boot to accommodate different calf shapes. This system can reduce the cuff height by 10mm, which in turn increases the circumference by 8mm, providing more space for higher calf volumes.

• To increase calf volume: Locate the adjustment mechanism on the rear of the cuff (refer to boot diagram if available). Follow the instructions to lower the cuff height by 10mm.
• To decrease calf volume: Reverse the process to raise the cuff height.

2. Adaptable Fit System (AFS) - Ramp Fetuunaiga Angle

The AFS also allows adjustment of the boot's ramp angle by 1° either up or down. This alters the volume fit of the boot, providing a higher or lower volume as needed.

• Ina ia fetuunai ramp tulimanu: The adjustment mechanism is located on the baseboard of the boot. Consult the markings or specific instructions on the boot for precise manipulation to achieve your desired ramp tulimanu.

3. Liner Customization (ASY Sport T1)

The ASY Sport T1 liner is thermoformable in the heel and Achilles area. This allows for a more personalized and snug fit around these critical areas.

• Fa'avevela: For optimal fit, it is recommended to have this process performed by a certified ski boot technician. They can heat the liner and mold it to the contours of your foot and ankle.
• Initial Fit: Even without thermoforming, the asymmetrical shape and neoprene toe box provide a comfortable and adaptive fit.

Operating Your Ski Boots

1. Putting On Your Boots

1. Ensure all buckles are unlatched and the power strap is loosened.
2. Pull the tongue of the liner forward and outward to create an opening.
3. Slide your foot into the boot, ensuring your heel is seated firmly at the back.
4. Tap your heel on the ground a few times to fully seat your foot.

2. Buckling Your Boots (RS Alu Buckles)

The M Tech 80 features durable RS Alu buckles. Proper buckling ensures support and control.

1. Start with the buckles over the instep (second from bottom). Cinch them until snug, but not overly tight.
2. Move to the cuff buckles (top two). These should be tightened to provide firm support around your shin and calf.
3. Finally, secure the toe buckle (bottom one) to prevent foot movement within the boot.
4. Adjust the power strap at the top of the cuff for additional support and to prevent shin bang.
5. Taua: Buckles should be snug enough to hold your foot securely without causing pressure points or discomfort. Adjust as needed throughout the day.

3. Taking Off Your Boots

1. Unlatch all buckles and loosen the power strap.
2. Pull the tongue forward and outward, then slide your foot out.

Tausia ma Tausiga

• Fa'agogo: After each use, unbuckle your boots and remove the liners if possible. Allow them to air dry completely in a warm, dry place away from direct heat sources (like radiators or open flames). This prevents odor and prolongs liner life.
• Fa'amamaina: Wipe down the exterior of the boots with a damp cloth to remove dirt, snow, and salt. Do not use harsh chemicals.
• Teuina: When storing your boots for extended periods (e.g., off-season), buckle them loosely. This helps maintain the boot's shape and prevents deformation. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Buckle Inspection: Periodically check all buckles and straps for wear, damage, or loose screws. Replace any damaged components promptly.
• Tausiga Laina: If liners are removable, they can be hand-washed with mild soap and air-dried. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

Fa'afitauli

• Discomfort/Pressure Points:
  • Ensure buckles are not overtightened.
  • Re-evaluate AFS calf and ramp angle adjustments.
  • Consider professional thermoforming of the liner for a custom fit.
  • Check for proper sock thickness and fit.
• Cold Feet:
  • Ensure liners are dry before use.
  • Wear appropriate ski socks (wool or synthetic, not cotton).
  • The neoprene toe box in the ASY Sport T1 liner is designed to improve toe warmth.
• Loose Fit/Lack of Control:
  • Tighten buckles progressively, starting from the instep and moving up.
  • Ensure the power strap is snug.
  • Verify that the AFS ramp angle is set to provide a snug volume fit.
