Intro
Nella vasta famiglia dell’Hawx è il più grande e generoso nella calzata, high volume evidente di 102 millimetri di pianta che presenta spazi importanti su tutto lo scafo per accontentare gli sciatori dal fisico imponente e, di conseguenza, dai piedi voluminosi. The Magna is the only one not to have adopted the BOA, keeping the four buckles that give it a decidedly resort feel. Available in two versions, with a flex of 120 or 130, as well as a 105 women's model.
Walking
Entry is super easy, even for those who have never worn a ski boot in their life. There's lots of toe room, lots of room in general in fact, ideal for skiers who can never find a boot wide enough to fit them. The range of motion is excellent, better than the Prime, especially to the aft and it follows the movement of the calf without friction in the plastics. This is one burly, hefty boot, suited to first outings on the skin track, freetouring initiation and technical improvement off-piste.
Lab
Quattro ganci in alluminio con regolazione micrometrica, booster robusto di 45 millimetri e sgancio rapido. Three forward lean settings: 13°, 15° (default) and 17°, with optional spoiler to pad out the back of the liner. Scarpetta Mimic Platinum rifinita e rinforzata nei punti di pressione, con soffietto posteriore Achilles Flex Zone per assistere la camminata. The footbed is better than the Prime, but too flat for flat feet.
Skiing
The super comfy fit makes it nice and toasty—enough to cope with riding the lifts on freezing winter days. È quella la destinazione principale, l’utilizzo prevalente su discese e itinerari nelle pertinenze dei centri sciistici, il mix di pista e bordo pista, gobbe, giornate di powder e talvolta brevi salite entro i 500 metri di dislivello. The flex is more generous than those of its closest, more powerful siblings, and it's only right that the more comfortable model is also the more forgiving. It's suited to solid intermediates not looking to push their equipment to the limit. Powerful enough to control fat skis, it's nice and responsive on medium turns, more sluggish on tight ones.

Intro
Safety, a culture of doubt
Beyond the basic definition, there’s nothing as variable as snow conditions and the human psyche when under emotional stress. That's why, after purchasing the right self-rescue kit and airbag backpack, it’s paramount you do your research, train, scrutinize your decisions and, if necessary, opt for plan B. And, at least for now, don’t rely on artificial intelligence.

Intro
Products for mountaineers
Once you’ve chosen your skis, boots and bindings, your thoughts then turn to harnesses, crampons, ice axe and helmet, though perhaps not everyone, and not straight away. While it’s true that when starting out, especially for those transitioning from resort skiing who just want to start surfing some pow, the important thing is to get self-rescue equipment. It’s equally true, however, that the sport we love is a combination of two words: skiing and mountaineering.
