"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I’ve been riding the Fuse for a few seasons and it checks every box. The Trap Wrap liner locks my heel in better than anything I’ve worn, and the combo of traditional laces with the Tongue Tied system gives me fine-tuned control. It’s responsive but forgiving enough to hit natural side hits and push laps all day."When we want a boot that disappears underfoot but delivers power when we need it, we ride the Fuse. This all-mountain freestyle boot is a staple in the Ride team’s lineup for a reason. It's dialed for riders who want control, rebound, and next-level fit. Built with a stiffer flex for those who ride hard, the Fuse features the Intuition Trap Wrap Liner, giving us a locked-in feel that hugs our feet without hot spots or pressure points. A traditional lace system allows for personalized tension across the boot, while the Tongue Tied Hybrid Harness secures our heel for better response on landings and in turns. The Flex Slime Tongue absorbs vibration and maintains rebound in variable terrain. And when it’s time to bootpack or stomp a landing, the Michelin Hybrid Fiberlite Sole grips reliably with a durable, low-profile build. This is a boot we trust from the first lap to the last drop.

Jared Manganelli's review
This boot can charge. Hybrid boa lacing system with a stiff responsive feel. Michelin sole, internal lacing system controlled by the side boa for maximum heel hold, and classic exterior laces. The material holds up and the boots remain a top option for so many riders out there. I am currently on my second pair and continue to enjoy what they offer.
