weight (lbs) 8.2/pair @ 27.5 The triple-injected EnerG is our stiffest, burliest boot fot all-mountain free-heel skiing. It's a very aggressive boot, suitable for steeps, high-speed freeriding on and off-piste, racing, and ski-mountaineering. The Ener-G is very rigid torsionally, giving superb lateral control, with a smooth progressive forward flex that builds energy through the turn. These are beefy boots and need to be skied with compression spring bindings (like the Rottefella Cobra) with at least 39 mm of travel. - gusa.site.yahoo.net Four years ago, Garmont's four-buckle Squadra broke ground as the first triple-injected boot available. These days, it's the Ener-G that is carrying Garmont's flag for hard-charging, high-cuffed tele boots. Fortunately, a boot for the burly these days doesn't necessitate that the high performance department be content with just the downhill slide. An impressivley compact and refined package with a stock G-Fit liner and three forward lean positions (19 and 24 degrees and free for walking), the Ener-G, as this boot's name suggests, gives a whole lot more than it takes, both up and down. - Backcountry Magazine October 2004 The Ener-G is Garmont's most powerful boot, with four alpine-style metal buckles and a high cuff for riding mid-to-big boards over any kind of terrain. If you don't weigh much, consider an active binding to help flex these boots, although the same goes for all the top-end, tall-cuff boots. Solid, confortable, and quite light for the performance you get. Wtih denser foam than Scarpa's thermo-liner, the G-Fit liner tends to provide a former driving feel. Some folks liked the original Padlock liner (no longer available with the Ener-G) for its extra stiffness, but we're convinced that the advantages of the G-Fit are well worth the additional price and marginal softening of the Ener-G's flex. - Couloir Magazine October 2004
