Peter Glenn Ski & Sports

r/snowboarding

 Hey, this is Josh from Burton Snowboards, we're here today at Peter Glenn to review the Winter 21-22 Men's Photon Boa Boot. The Photon is a really good medium stiff boot, perfectly suitable for any type of riding, whether that be groomers, park, backcountry, anything. What's great about the Photon is that it's super customizable in terms of how it fits. So you have the Boa system here that controls the lower section of the boot, so to tighten the bottom, you simply pop this side dial and crank down, and that's closing the lower portion of the tongue

 And finally, this is something people don't really think about, but what keeps your feet the warmest is just good, continuous blood flow. So little details in this boot, like the very thin lacing guides, you're not having any chunky plastic where a binding strap can pinch and push and poke something into your foot that's going to cut off circulation and potentially get your feet cold. So really thoughtful details in this boot, great all-mountain, medium stiff with a lot of customization features. This is your Burton Men's Photon Boa

 The other thing in terms of the liner is the Imprint 3 has a few features that are going to keep your feet warm, so it is filled with a fence-lit material that you're probably familiar with in insulated winter soft goods, jackets and pants. It also has a sleeping bag liner in the bottom of your foot that's going to reflect that warmth back up into the boot so you don't lose it out of a cold rubber outsole. And finally, this is something people don't really think about, but what keeps your feet the warmest is just good, continuous blood flow. So little details in this boot, like the very thin lacing guides, you're not having any chunky plastic where a binding strap can pinch and push and poke something into your foot that's going to cut off circulation and potentially get your feet cold

Burton Photon Boa Snowboard Boot (Men's) | W21/22 Product Review

Boots are super warm and fit very nicely. They definitely have a break in period and I would recommend heat molding them if you get the chance. I chose not to but wish I would have. First wear was a little snug but the do loosen up

Very warm and comfortable

 This thing is going to feel the same way on day one as it does on day 100 and it also has shrinkage footprint reduction technology. This size 10 boot has a size 9 imprint on the snow and that's perfect for anyone with bigger feet. The Photon Boa comes in a lot of different colorways. There's some different lacing options

 It has a very very tall focus style cuff with internal liner locking lace system and sleeping bag reflective foil and what that does is it causes the heat to go back towards your body and the cold actually stays out the bottom of the boot, which is real good, and then of course there's this kind of lacing system with that Boa. It has a locked down control system to keep your heel locked in the heel cup. So with that focus cuff and with the way that the dial is reeled, it actually pulls the tongue closer to the heel pocket for a better secure fit, and then there's this thing. This is the Inprint 3 liner, extremely lightweight, thermal heat moldable

 It has external support panels, internal jay panels, and of course a Velcro closure system. I like this because it's body heat activated, but you can also use a heat molder and it features this thing inside. This is a level 2 footbed. It has an ESS support shank, micro cradle, has perforated top that has a soft touch to it too

TractionThe Vibram sole provided plenty of grip and has a proven track record of durability.  Continue Reading

 So far, so good, but our three month test period wasn’t long enough to confirm or deny that claim. We liked how the Boa allowed for incremental tightening and loosening on the fly.The Vibram sole was comfy and provided plenty of traction in icy parking lots.  

Weight/ResponseOn foot, they felt solid—not exceptionally light or heavy. But they were quick to respond.

Burton Photon Boa Review | Gear Institute

Excellent build quality, but still just not quite wide enough. Probably fine for most people, but I have unreasonably wide feet. I went with Thirty two TM2 and they have a little more width in them.

excellent quality

Closest was Vans Infuse but I really can't deal with how heavy that boot is and all the excess tech. Vans also has pretty shitty manufacturing in my experience, like always having outsoles that are misaligned and glued, or the cuff having an odd angle on one boot.

I've been snowboarding 1-2 times a year for almost a decade now. I've rented the board and boots everytime (not smart) and have been wearing size 10.5 boot, same as my regular shoe size. 

Today I went to a new rental shop and one of the workers there measured me as a 9.5 boot. I put the new boots on and I almost didn't believe it.  

Everything makes sense now. I thought my skill level had plateaued, but in reality, I've been wearing unresponsive boots all this time (I thought it was normal). 

In summary, I am stupid.

</div>

Today I learned my boot size...

 But because it comes all the way up here, it's really going to give you a solid foothold and just give you a really responsive feel to the boot. So that also gives you options when you're lacing as well. So you can run this boot relatively loose on the lacing without compromising any of that heel hold. So on those days where you want to be in the park, run this system loose and it's just going to give you mobility

 If you've got this super close and super tight any amount of energy that you put into this is going to transfer straight onto the board and you're going to get a really fast and dynamic ride. You've also got on the inner the 360 degree heat retention system and that is just a heat retention material that has a 360 wrap over the front of the boot and between the liner and the sole unit. That just helps retain warmth in the foot so you're not going to get cold feet on those like freezing cold days. Now the liner is the V3 liner

 Don't put it in your normal oven at home because that will just melt it. You need a special air mounted oven to do that. Ultra cushy inner layer on this liner so it's really well cushioned on the inside, super comfortable. You've also got North Face's flash dry material liner in this as well so that's going to wick away moisture really quickly especially with those side holes as well

 Now one of the big changes on this liner compared to a lot of the other liners in the Vans collection is that neoprene section at the front of the liner. Pretty much most of the forefoot in this boot is made of neoprene material. That just gives you a really comfortable fit and just removes any pressure points because that material stretches really well and just gives you a super comfortable liner. Footbed on this is the V3 three layer pop cush

Vans Infuse 2021 Snowboard Boot Review | The Snowboard Asylum

 I think it really helps when it comes to carving, riding in steep terrain, fitting a board that might be a touch narrower than you'd like. That really helps. And I felt that these were pretty warm too for me personally. But it's really different person to person when it comes to warmth

 And this is the Vans Infuse. I've ridden this over the years and it hasn't changed too much, but I felt like we needed to do an updated review To give you a short summary, this is a very well built, very adjustable, very durable boot that even has reinforcements in the tongue to preserve the flex longevity over a hundred day a year season. It's very comfortable. It has a very unique sole that has excellent board feel in the front, minimal shock absorption there too, but then more shock absorption in the back of the heel

 And I felt like of all the boots, this was definitely the most responsive, but it's still just the kind of responsive I like. It's more on the medium fast side, and it matches up really well with the flex. But when it comes to flex retention and construction and just the way this boot is built, yes, it doesn't have the articulating cuff that you see right here with the Burton Kendo, or like you see with the 32 TM3 XD. That was just an amazingly well built boot

 Thanks for watching. Welcome to The Good Ride, I'm James Beasty, and I'm deeply committed to an open relationship with snowboard gear. And this is the Vans Infuse. I've ridden this over the years and it hasn't changed too much, but I felt like we needed to do an updated review To give you a short summary, this is a very well built, very adjustable, very durable boot that even has reinforcements in the tongue to preserve the flex longevity over a hundred day a year season

Vans Infuse 2022 Snowboard Boot Review

 It features a 5-9 flex rating and is a great all-mountain freestyle and backcountry boot. It offers a lot of support and a lot of versatility in terms of fit. As you can see, it has traditional laces up the front, which really allow you to crank the laces down, get a really nice snug fit. As you can see, it features a single bow on the side right here

 Another interesting thing about this boot is it features a five to nine flex rating, which depends on basically how much you either tighten down this dial or crank down on the laces. It does feature these removable inserts that go into the tongue. What these do, they're plastic material and they just kind of stiffen up the tongue for more support and response, but overall really great boot, great for intermediate to advanced level rider. Can't say enough good things about these boots

 As you can see, it has traditional laces up the front, which really allow you to crank the laces down, get a really nice snug fit. As you can see, it features a single bow on the side right here. This controls a custom slide guide that goes over the top of your foot. So just crank this down

 Not going to get heel lift in this. It's going to get a really nice, supportive fit. It also has this power cuff on the top, which is a really nice feature I like in boots. You just Velcro this down and it really just hugs your calf back into the top of the liner

Vans Infuse 2019 Snowboard Boot Rider Review - Tactics

 Again you know Pat Moore, he rides these boots and you know what's surprising enough, they do have a fairly small footprint on the snow however, however, they do seem to be quite a bit like kind of bigger in the mid step area around where your ankle strap is. So if you're a guy or girl who's kind of like me, I like to ride really snug bindings but I don't know if I'd put my normal size 11 Vans infuse into a medium size binding because of that larger kind of girth to the mid step of the infuse. So keep that in mind, if you're already maxed out on your straps, on your binding with a low profile boot, you may have a difficult time making this boot fit into a very short strap style ankle binding. Keep that in mind, awesome boot, Pat Moore, good job and Vans, thumbs up

 There's a nice cuff that wraps around this heat moldable V3 liner. That cuff actually goes up fairly high onto that liner and there's additional support panels within it which allows it to be just a little bit more stiff. Now this liner is pretty unique too. Not only is it probably the coolest looking liner that there is because of the checkers, has an X cage wrap around the outside, has additional kind of J bars there and then internal J bars as well

 The Vans Infuse Boots are pretty rugged, pretty wild looking boot right here. It's a high performance, it's an all mountain freestyle boot and this is actually Pat Moore's professional model boot. This is the boot that he wanted from Vans and they gave it to him and it is absolutely packed with technology. You can check it out at thehouse

 Now this is a really stiff boot, you know it's pretty much damn near 10 out of 10, has triple reinforced stitching, a little bit of flex notches but no articulation and then another really unique thing called flex control. Now the flex control is actually in the top. You can take out these 3D molded flex panels that make the boot stiffer across the top of that toe side edge. You can make them feel softer or stiffer on the lateral or media side depending on what your preferences are but there's an ability to control the flex with these flex control sliders which is actually pretty cool
