Design details

Separate tightening system - 3 zones

The 3 zone tightening on these boots is designed for demanding snowboarders: 1. habu®FitSystem micro-adjustable tightening (knob + laces + lace guide) to adjust the ankle support at will 2. Tightening of the bottom of the shoe with laces blocked by a specially designed plastic piece 3. Tightening laces at the top of the boot for personalised tightening.

habu® Fit System (produced by Boa® technology)

The habu® fItsystem combines three important technical elements to transform the snowboard experience: 1) the innovative innovative wheel ensures micro-adjustment and precision, 2) the habu® cable is light, but very durable with 75 stainless steel strands. 3) low friction habu® guides ensure uniform pressure distribution whilst minimising wear and long lifespan.

How to repair the habu®FitSystem

Supplied by BOA Technology, the wheels and the laces of the adjustment system have undergone thousands of hours of rigorous tests in the lab and in the field, and are guaranteed to prolong the life of the boot on which they are built into. After-sales service is guaranteed on the website habufit.com/support

Boot flex/stiffness

Medium flex (5/10) to provide optimal comfort for freestyle, whether it be to tweak your grabs or on boxes or rails. A stiffer boot would be more demanding and less comfortable in the snow park.

Adding Flex Up

The Flex Up makes the boot stiffer by around 2 points of flex on 10 (with the flex up, the new Endzone 500 obtains approximately 7/10). This is a plastic accessory which is inserted into the tongue of Decathlon snowboard boots produced from the 2022/23 season onwards. (A pocket is provided so that it is well positioned in height and sideways). The Flex Up makes sense over time: when the boot becomes softer, give it a second life.

Heel support: level 3(/3) liner

Foot support is essential when snowboarding to steer your board (such as foot in the boot or liner in the boot). The level 3 liner applies 6 concepts: 1. Thermoformable liner from home 2. Ergonomic ankle foam 3. Liner fastening thanks to the fabric built into the shoe 4. Tightening wheel to hold the foot in place at the bottom of the boot 5. Velcro on the top of the liner. 6. 3D insole

1. THERMOFORMING THE LINER INDEPENDENTLY / PLEASE PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION

THERMOFORMING IS ONLY POSSIBLE IN BUILT-IN OVENS MEASURING 56 x 60 x 56 cm WITH A FAN MODE. DO NOT TRY ON A GAS OVEN OR A SMALL TABLE TOP OVEN WITH VISIBLE HEATING ELEMENTS.

1. Thermoforming the liner independently / INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

1. Heat your oven to 80°C in convection mode 2. Remove the inner soles from the liners, place the liners on the oven plate covered with a piece of baking paper 3. Wait 15 mins 4. Put the socks back on, put them on with a pair of ski-snowboard socks and tighten them (not too much) 5. Put the boots on and tighten fully to 5. Wait for 15 minutes when static. This operation can be repeated if necessary.

2. Ergonomic Heel Pad ankle foam

The flex of the Endzone 500 is rated 5/10, making it soft and tolerant. This type of flex offers predictable performance in turns, without surprise. This flex, which is designed for freestyle, is ideal for playful snowboarding on the flat (ollies, nollies, butter, nose roll, etc.) . However, it is also suitable for beginner snowboarders.

3. The liner tightens with a 3 point textile inner lacing

The liner in the Endzone boots is surrounded by textile inner lacing with 3 point tightening. This concept spreads the tightening force evenly around the foot, for good foot stability in the boots.

4.Heel cushioning

We have fitted a layer of PU foam under the insole (liner insole) to increase comfort under the heel when landing jumps.

5. Velcro strip on top of liner

The top of the liner has velcro strips, enabling you to hold the tongue of the liner in place with the sides, no matter how your foot is moving. This way, your foot is kept supported throughout the day.

6. 3D insole

The insole of this boot is 3 dimensional. This sole is pre-shaped at the heel and arch of the foot to help prevent the foot from moving inside the liner. It offers comfort and thermal insulation. If you feel you need to maintain your foot more securely in the liner, there is another alternative: get a sole that can be thermoformed to suit your foot. This is the most effective solution.

Sole: grip, traction, cushioning and thermal insulation

Our Ultralight sole is 100% EVA foam. EVA is a very light material with 80% air. This formulation is designed to resist abrasion while keeping its damping properties. It is naturally very insulating and protects against the cold rising from the ground. We designed in large studs to offer you very good grip. Sufficiently far apart from each other, they help get rid of the snow.

How can I be sure it's the right size?

1. Put the boot on 2. Tighten the boot 3. Stand upright 4. Your big toes should just touch the tip of the boot without causing unpleasant pressure 5. Bend your legs forward, your big toes move backwards and no longer touch the end of the boot.
