They might look the same but the cuffs on the 2023/24 boots have some exciting improvements!
• The sideways and heel side flex is slightly softer to allow for a bit more tweak when needed and a more comfortable ride feel.
• By using a new cuff material, the boots are 50 - 70g lighter per foot (depending on size).
The forward flex remains the same and for those preferring a stiffer flex, we also offer a stiff version of the tongues.
🔍 for those with excellent vision and an eye for detail: the walk/ride mechanism in the picture is the old 2021/22 version. Sometimes when testing new versions of the boots, we use old spare parts for the assembly 😊

Our goal when developing the Disruptive boots was to achieve the damping and dynamic ride feel of a softboot but with added edge control.
Having had @kriskopa testing the boots to their limits has been invaluable to confirm the design choices we’ve made over the years.
Thanks Krister for being a part of the Key Equipment family!

Back in the steeps 🏔️
Thanks to @lyngenexperience for having us and giving us a memory for life. The boat trip, the couloirs and freshly boiled shrimps on the boat was next level. Thank You!

Mount Cayley — West Coast Classics | Episode 1
Episode 1 is live now on my YouTube — link in my bio.
This project has been a long time coming and follows my mission to climb and ride 10 of the most aesthetic peaks visible from the top of Whistler Mountain.
Each film is shot and edited to bring the viewer along for the ride — so grab some popcorn and get ready for an adventure 🫡
Keep your eyes peeled for two more episodes dropping over the next month 👀
We’re excited to release a wrap version of our splitboard liner!
While it shares the same great materials as our regular liner, it has a few key differences:
+ Possible to get a tighter fit around the calves (good if you have skinny calves). If you have bigger/muscular calves, the regular version might be a better fit.
+ A little bit more damping/shock absorption on toe edge.
+ More comfort over the instep when flexing into the tongue.
- A little bit more resistance in walk mode. Produced in France by Palau.
@honesttoast said this about the setup:
I’ve been skeptical about hard boots for years because I love the flex of soft boots. I liked touring in my old hard-boot setup, but riding down never felt quite right.
This season I moved to the @keyequipment + @phantomsnowindustries setup, and it’s the closest thing to a soft-boot feel I’ve ever had in a hard boot. The lateral flex lets me drive turns, and the progressive front flex gives me quick control when I need it. Add the touring benefits, and I’m really happy with the setup!
