Fischer Carbon Travers Boot Review

- Christof and I like to review our favorite gear and this boot is always near the top of our list. This is a review of the past season boot which can be found online for a decent price. This boot weighs in at 4 pounds 10 ounces but skis like a much heavier boot. Great light boot for a medium to light ski setup. I've used these boots with my Fischer Hannibal and Movement alp tracks 84. Christof has used these boots with his DPS 99 tour 1, Helio 105 and a smattering of other skis.

Such high quality content. You guys have so much knowledge!
I have the Fischer traverse (non varbon version) and I am also really really happy with them. Light, secure and simple.
Love that boot.
Excellent, thank you!
Great video. Do you guys utilize specific GPS devices or just use your phones?
Christof you mentioned that you used this boot on Mt. Shasta, any chance we will see a video for Shasta in the near future?
You mentioned you've moved onto a lighter setup, would you mind covering it?
First. Are you guys sponsored by any companies? If not, huge opportunity missed by many. You guys have excellent videos.
Nice review! How do you deal with the small front toe welt with crampons? I have the same petzls, do you need a different toe bail?
Ryan Christensen I have had no issues whatsoever with crampons. The toe bail that came stock on the leopards works fine.
Dynafit tlt8: 1050g per boot. 120 flex. Hard to beat that for everything
Which boot are you currently testing?
@Extra Mediocre which liner is that scarpa? Looking to stiffen up my travers setup. Palau power LT is the front runner right now.
That is the Pro Flex Evo, which is the stock liner in the Scarpa F1. I would recommend the Palau Tour Lite Pro EVO if want a bit more substantial cuff but don't want to sacrifice walkability. The Palau Power LT that you mention is awesome and is almost identical to the Pro Flex Evo that I threw in. It will definitely stiffen up the boot, but you will definitely lose some range of motion and walkability. So it just depends what your priorities are.
I have been using them for the past two years. Love them. But they might not be for everyone.
I spy some Black Crows Camox Free birds in the back!
Love the videos, guys! Please keep them coming!
How would you guys rate the warmth on these boots? Touring in Alaska, one thing I struggle with is cold toes. I’m assuming that something this light would compromise on warmth, but I’d love to hear your thoughts.
Sorry late reply might not be useful anymore, but I would say these are not "cold" boots but definitely not toasty. I have somewhat poor circulation so my feet usually freeze in any boot, from my TLT8 carbonios with a very thin liner to my Maestrale XTs with a nice thick intuition liner. I hardly notice the difference. If I was touring in Alaska, I'd get the boot that fits my foot and performance requirements, and then just use those dorky boot gloves. They're lame but they're the only things I've found that actually make a difference.
I want with the boot glove and they are are game changer. I thought they looked dorky too but they work. Most of my trips take place in Vermont and NH and negative 20 or so is not unusually. I also use toe warmers if it’s really brutal.
Please do ice crampons/axes
how does one avoid blisters around navicular area from the ascent while trying to maintain max ankle plantar/dorsiflexion? could liner/footbed/orthosis alone do it? local backcountry shop has just been ok in helping. thanks for any input
@@milesbaker4775 saw these with the silicone to try to hold your foot in the boot better. I like socks with more padding around the navicular area rather than just up on he shin and underfoot. Otc footbeds did wonders for me...and building the callous from sufficient frequency of days out. Thanks though.
