For those who see the ski resort as more than just groomed runs and view every little bump as an opportunity to take off, the Cabrio MV 100 IF is the perfect choice. This comfortable all mountain freeride ski boot with medium flex and wider 101 mm last provides extra room and exceptional fit while delivering impressive performance on the downhill runs. The three-piece Cabrio design – composed of a shell, cuff, and external kinetic tongue – offers even flex and smooth damping. At the same time, it allows for progressive power transmission and outstanding lateral and heel support, providing more control in variable terrain. The IF (Instant Fit) SPORT liner, with integrated padding and tongue, also enhances heel hold and efficiently transfers control inputs to the shell, thanks to a partially reinforced outer layer. Rounded off with additional thoughtful features, including adjustable forward lean (12° or 14°) with an insert in the upper heel area and a redesigned tongue profile for optimized ergonomics and more rebound, this boot is designed for maximum performance. A precisely positioned 45-degree buckle as part of the Dalbello Dynalock closure system contributes to the optimal fit of the boot. The buckle design also simplifies the handling of the Cabrio MV 100.

MICRO-ADJUSTABLE BUCKLES:
Permits skiers to precisely “fine tune” buckle closure tension for a more exact fit. With micro adjustment, you can twist the buckle to make it longer or shorter.
FORWARD LEAN CONTROL:
FORWARD LEAN control wedges may inserted at boot rear between lower shell and cuff to change forward inclination angle.
PROGRESSIVE CABRIO CONSTRUCTION:
Dalbello's unique Cabrio construction combines a boot shell/boot cuff assembly with an external Kinetic Response Tongue closure which enables a smoother and progressive power transmission same as great shock absorption. Together these features provide great versatilty and better adaptability on different kind of snow and uneven terrain.
GRIPWALK PREMOUNTED:
Better walking comfort and more grip - that's the big benefit of this boot mounted with GripWalk soles! These new soles are compatible with GripWalk specific bindings (marked with the GripWalk icon) without any height adjustment and can also be skied with touring bindings (ISO 13992). They are not compatible with regular alpine bindings (ISO norm 9462).
ADJUSTABLE REAR CUFF SPOILER:
Modular rear boot cuff spoiler adapts the boot cuff to a variety of lower leg shapes. Spoiler Permits skiers to increase rear cuff height to add rearward support and change forward lean
DYNALINK + DYNALOCK:
The Dynalink is fixed coaxially to the pivot so the buckle really works with a 45° angle and the heel is held back more efficiently. Moreover, the buckle has an articulated tail that engages the base of the lever (Dynalock) and only disarms when you try to open the buckle
CABRIO KINETIC TONGUE:
The geometry of the ribs has been engineered to provide an incredibly progressive and reactive forward flex
GRIPWALK OPTION:
This boot is coming with the option to mount GripWalk soles as an aftermarket accessory. GripWalk soles provide better grip, great walking comfort and work perfectly with the GripWalk binding without any height adjustment (ISO 23223).

Flex Index
Ski Boot Fitting
- Flex Index is how much effort or work is required to move the cuff of the ski boot forward while the lower shell is stationary; typically retained by the binding. This number can be anything from 50 or 60 to 130+ (or even 1 - 10). There is no standard for this number across the ski boot industry and the ‘Flex Index’ is not based on any metric like newton-meters, foot-pounds, or Pascals. Even within within any given manufacture’s line-up, a boot with a Flex Index of 110 might not be the same as another boot with the same rating. The main thing to remember is that the higher the number, the stiffer the boot. The Flex Index should only be used as just one general factor in choosing a ski boot.
- Your style of skiing, experience, level of skiing, terrain, use, height, mass, and personal preference all play a role in helping you pick the stiffness of your boot. A World Cup racer or an advanced/expert skier that prefers making precision turns at high speeds requiring techniques using a lot of tip pressure might need a stiffer boot. On the other hand, someone who hits the slopes every weekend with her family or Patrols three days a week might prefer a more moderate flex.
- ‘Last’ is a metric that describes the width of your foot at its widest point, which is typically at the forefoot or the ball of your foot. This will be represented in millimeters: i.e: 102mm. This is a critical consideration, because going up a size in a boot will move the widest part of the boot forward while the widest part of your foot will be kept reward. As you can gather, going up a size is not an option.
Ski Boot Fitting
Alpine
- Our Alpine ski boots are designed for maximum control and performance for downhill alpine skiing. These boots will be not be optimal for touring/skinning as the cuff is typically fixed, keeping you in a natural ski position. These boots are designed to work with any Alpine DIN binding. Alpine DIN bindings must be installed, adjusted, and function tested by a certified binding technician.
