Love them on soft groomers, love them in crud, junk, bumps, leftovers - love them in up to 12 inches of pow - and everything in between!! @Philpug why didn't you tell me to get these sooner! Wait - I think you did!! ;) Not sure how these (2016 Version) compare to the previous years ... but...

I have my first teaser on the front page here SIA PREVIEW. Here are a few more to fill in the blanks... Blizzard Quattro Blizzard is returning to its roots and bringing back the "Quattro" name in an all-new frontside collection. Just as it did by offering the Mach 1 boot in narrow and medium...
