Scarpa Gea RS

Technologies and manufacturing processes

• CARBON CORE SHELL GRILAMID BIO

  The RS version features Grimalid Bio and CARBON CORE technology, a carbon insert that guarantees high torsional and longitudinal rigidity. The shell ensures more direct impulse transmission to the ski and therefore greater precision. The new 102mm last is more precise in the heel and midfoot area. This compact last enables a perfect unity between foot and boot for more feel and better performance.

• SPEED LOCK MLT

  Made of aluminum, the SPEED LOCK MLT is equipped with Friction Free technology, which allows maximum agility and freedom of movement when walking. The locking system on the shell is easy to use even in extreme conditions and the essential design prevents snow or ice build-up.

• FRICTION FREE TECHNOLOGY

  Friction Free Technology: Does not require a connecting element between the shell and shaft and thus enables smooth movement in walk mode.

• AXIAL ALPINE HYBRID

  Thanks to the straps attached to the tongue, which are connected in the middle of the shell, it ensures a snug fit in the forefoot area and guarantees a precise fit for all types and sizes of feet.

• WAVE CLOSURE M-LITE

  The Wave Closure M-LITE system guarantees precise wrapping of the foot at four points between the ankle and forefoot, distributing pressure evenly on the foot. 3 controls are available for this system, allowing micro-adjustments to be made.

• HRS SYSTEM

  Thanks to our HRS and instep straps, heel security has become a SCARPA hallmark. Our instep strap configuration, in addition to easier entry, provides an incredible fit for both touring comfort and downhill performance.

• ALLUMINUM LEVERS

  All levers are made of aluminum, which guarantees lightness and durability. The design enables effective use even when wearing gloves.

• BOOSTER STRAP

  Dynamic and elastic, can be closed super tight, which extremely increases the performance and protection in the shin area.

• BOOSTER STRAP PVC FREE

  The dynamic, elastic straps are PVC-free and can be laced super tight for increased performance. They also provide cushioning for the shins during fast descents.

• MLT RS CUFF

  Made from sustainable PEBAX RNEW material, which is obtained from renewable sources, and with new CARBON CORE technology applied to the cuff for the first time. The carbon inserts guarantee high torsional and longitudinal rigidity from the cuff to the shell, which enables a more direct transfer of impulses to the ski and offers more support.

• ZEPPA LT

  The new zeppa LT is located under the foot between the shell and the inner shoe, providing a more comfortable fit and feel. The combination of the new material and thickness allow greater volume in the shell and provide more comfort especially for all day.

• PRO FLEX PERFORMANCE WMN

  The Pro Flex inner boot made from Foam Intuition is fully thermoformable and therefore adapts perfectly to the skier's foot. The closed cell structure of the foam guarantees a high level of thermal insulation, while the tongue construction of the inner boot promotes a more natural stride when walking and reduces fatigue. The additional reinforcements of the upper on the tongue and cuff, made of recycled materials, increase the overall stiffness of the boot for the downhill phase and favor the immediate transfer of impulse to the ski.Ergonomic and thermoformable padding on the heel stabilizes the ankle while skiing or walking. The Pro Flex Performance liner for the Gea RS has a performance-oriented fit and promotes precision and performance.

• SPOILER

  The ski boot is equipped with a height-adjustable Velcro spoiler, which provides optimum support in the shaft area as well as a +2° template.

• RESOLEABLE

  This shoe can be resoled at an official SCARPA dealer. Repair your shoe before it is too damaged. Find your dealer in the dealer locator.

• Vibram

  SCARPA relies on the high quality soles of Vibram® for its touring ski products, which are conceived and designed by specialists in collaboration between SCARPA and Vibram®. Thanks to selected compositions, the best possible performance and high grip are achieved, particularly suitable for activities in the snow. SCARPA by Vibram® stands for top performance, guaranteed grip and durability in all conditions.

• INTUITION

  Intuition has over twenty years of experience and today manufactures hundreds of thousands of boot liners for the most important brands in the world. The products are worn by skiers, snowboarders, guides and instructors. Intuition liners offer the highest levels of thermal protection and lightweight performance, ensuring the highest technological standards for thermoformable liners. The exclusive thermoformable materials guarantee a durable fit.

• Recco

  A RECCO® reflector incorporated into clothing or equipment makes it possible to be found by professional rescue teams using RECCO detectors. RECCO® technology is a global standard in avalanche rescue and handheld detectors are used by professional rescue teams worldwide. RECCO SAR helicopter detectors are used from the air to search large areas very quickly for a missing person. The reflectors do not replace an avalanche transceiver or a companion rescue. However, RECCO® reflectors do not have to be switched on and serve as an additional aid to ensure that they can always be found by professional rescue teams.

• Ortholite

  OrthoLite® offers the most cost-effective solution to improve long-term comfort, performance and cushioning while creating a cool and dry footwear environment.

• Green Line

  Grilamid BIO is part of a complete line of bio-based polyamides from Ems-Grivory, called Green Line. From a technical point of view, these materials are in no way inferior to petroleum-based polyamides. Ems-Grivory's primary goal is to offer products based on renewable raw materials that have excellent properties and are proven to help reduce environmental impact.

• Pebax

  Designed for use in extreme conditions. Pebax® is a premium performance material that has been used in winter sports equipment for years. It offers a unique combination of high-performance properties: lasting flexibility even at low temperatures, high cold impact resistance and excellent energy return properties. The elastomers are 20% lighter than conventional materials. They incorporate a rigid polyamide 12 block with a soft, hydrophobic polyether chain, closing the gap between thermoplastics and rubber. Pebax® is the best choice when it comes to high-performance applications in the sports sector.
