Ski Boot Technology - New Apex Ski Boots
The Ski Boot Technology seen in these new Apex Ski Boots may just change the way most people view ski boots - plasticy, uncomfortable etc. The new Ski Boot Technology found in these Apex Snowboard Boots was inspired by how snowboard boots have always featured a soft exterior and comfort that no ski boot could match and the way snowboarders could board all day and then walk around at the base without having to loosen their boots. The guys at Apex have made a boot that will give skiiers these simple pleasures while still keeping them safe. The Apex is also the most expensive boot on the market with a suggested retail of $1295, but it will be evident from first glance that it is steeped in value. The new Apex Ski Boots will look, feel, fit, and ski like nothing else on the market today. For the time being, the boots will only be available in specialty shops in Aspen, Vail, and other Colorado ski resorts.

New Ski Bindings - G3 Alpine-Touring Binding
Here's some new ski bindings from G3 called the Alpine-Touring Bindings. These new ski bindings allow the skier to release your heel, so you can put skins on your skis and tour. And when you're going downhill, you can lock the heel down and make alpine-style turns. Though some alpine touring bindings work with both traditional alpine and alpine-touring boots, bindings like the Onyx only work with certain models of alpine touring boots because this binding will only work with a boot that has special inserts that allow the binding's toe piece to fit inside. The following brands all have boots that are compatible with the G3 Alpine-Touring Binding : Dynafit, Black Diamond, Scarpa, and Garmont. The binding will retail for $400 without brakes and $470 with. As for availability, G3 had this to say: "A very small number will be available later this winter to consumers, but Fall 2009 is when the big availability will be." --Sam Moulton
