The Rift is a softer boot that allows you to express your own style but which is still packed with tech. It’s 3D-moulded for a perfect fit with our bindings, combining sneaker-like looks with modern materials including a unique seamless toe construction. The Dual Dial BOA® Fit System gives you complete control over the fit and flex, with separate dials to tighten the upper and lower zones. The flex is super tweakable, and thanks to an articulated two-part shell you can apply pressure to one side of the boot without deforming the other, creating consistent support and awesome heel hold.
It’s a super lightweight design, too, with a low profile BFT Ascent outsole to provide cushioning underfoot and traction on any surface. A Transition Zone connects this sole directly to the rubber backstay without any exposed edges, protecting the back of the boot and prolonging its life. Finally, the Rift comes loaded with OC-Kush foam dampening and a Silver heat-moldable liner for total comfort from day one. It’s a killer package made for park laps, soul turns and creative all-mountain shralping.
Closure
Dual-Dial BOA®
Dual-Dial BOA® lets you tighten your boots quickly and easily via two dials. The upper and lower foot can be adjusted independently for a custom fit, and to prioritise maximum power transfer or looser, surfier turns.

Outsole
Ascent
Combining an EVA midsole and a full rubber outsole, the Ascent hits the sweet spot between cushioning, weight and grip. An extra OC-Kush insert helps to soften heavy landings and dampen the ride, while its wavelike tread pattern is inspired by geckos for lizard-like traction.

Liner
Silver level
Heat molding allows you to customize the fit of our versatile Silver liner, which also features a Custom Flex Zone around the toes for extra wriggle room, 8mm of PE foam and additional PU support. The liner is closed via a separate cuff connected to the inside of the shell, making it a breeze to get on and off. Velcro patches on both sides of the tongue help secure the fit.

3D Molded Tongue
Our asymmetric 3D Molded Tongue is curved more sharply towards the medial side to match the natural ridgeline of your forefoot. This alleviates pressure points and provides a more balanced feeling of comfort and support versus a standard straight tongue.
3D Molded Toe Box
Our 3D Toebox eliminates extra layers and seams around the forefoot, improving water resistance and durablility. The streamlined design also makes it easier to slide your boot in and out of the binding.
ASYM 3F
A unique asymmetric boot design co-developed with BOA® that generates optimal support and flex. The asym tongue features lace guides positioned on the flatter forefoot areas for more even closure and less point-loaded pressure. Increased medial arch support reduces foot fatigue and cramps.
OC-KUSH
Shock-absorbing dynamic gel pads are inserted into the outsole around the heel area. This extra cushioning helps you soak up heavy landings and reduces fatigue from bumpy snow. It also makes your boots super comfy to walk around in.
Rubber Backstay
A durable section at the back of the boot that protects it from wear. Our unique Transition Zone means the rubber is bonded smoothly to the outsole with no ridges, eliminating any snags when you enter or exit your bindings.
Articulating Cuff
The upper shell overlaps the lower part and moves independently. This creates a super smooth riding feel and eliminates any pressure points when the boot is flexed.
