Drake DFL 2010 x Opal SL boots x DL bindings: a perfect combo
The Drake Freestyle Lady’s board is the perfect high-end women’s board. It has an amazing flex and pop for park and pipe shredding. It is a true twin tip designed with use of top quality materials. With its highly responsive and durable core the board is fully versatile. You can be a rookie or a pro, it has something for all of you.
Whether you are a pipe lover or enjoy simple downhill on piste you will appreciate triaxial glass for improved edge-to-edge response and grip through carves, plenty of width underfoot and a transitional sidecut for improved stability and confidence on larger transitions, carving is easy as pie. The board is fairly flexible and responsive, the pop is just amazing thanks to the core construction.
The board has been made for freestyle riding. It is light, tough and fast. The Structurn base guarantees a smooth ride on any type of snow. The sidecut consists of two concentric circle arcs. The first arc makes the initial and final stages of your carve easier, while the second arc helps edge hold during intermediate stages. The result is a constant distribution of pressure on the snow, which means clean, fluid riding at high speeds.
This really cool and not very expensive board is available in three sizes 148, 151, 155. Just try it and I’m sure you will fall in love. The design will for sure make a lot of heads turn while you are on the slope or in ski lift.
These Opal SL Northwave boots are a best seller. With easy lacing system and perfect flex these all mountain boots are great for all ability levels. It has double zone closure laces which are curved to guarantee an easy slide through the loops to minimize lace friction. They are simple, fast an comfortable.
The liners feel soft, warm and comfortable and lets face it, they are stylish. The new liner lace lock is built with a quick release system to ensure efficiency and reduce lace slippage. Just squeeze the two ends of the lock together to loosen or tighten boots quickly and simply.
The soles give you a perfect grip and absorb shock. Needless to say I loved having them on the slopes.
Finally the DL Drake bindings
Inspired by the Drake Lady’s team they are soft, have extremely forgiving flex. As the rest of the pack DL are perfect for park and urban rail sessions.
They are made partly from a perfect mix of aluminium and nylon called EVA connection which provide you with maximum lightness and total shock absorption. Pre curved-EVA-flex adapter-extra ankle cushioning, 3D structure and synthetic leather, plus extra ankle cushioning on the sides of the strap make these bindings durable and comfortable.
Needles to say, they compliment the board and together with boots you couldn’t ask for a better combo to shred some slopes.
