Bought a pair of Gara HVs to fit into my Atomic Hawx Ultra 130 S GW. There is no going back after trying these. Truly fantastic. All day comfort and the control you get is unparalleled.

Couldn't be happier. I'm a hardboot snowboarder and heel-lift is the bane of our existence. These liners keep you LOCKED DOWN. Went through all the usual situations that cause heel-lift- and NOPE, none. Chris and Jeff got me set up quickly and were super helpful. Fit is great, instant energy transmission through the cuffs, yet not overly stiff. I've tried all the other brands and they don't even come close to the total package these are.

What's amazing about the Gara HV liners is that for the first time in a long time I have FULL contact between every square inch of each foot/lower leg-every recess/every bony prominence with the liners and Dynafit shells. This fit evolved in the first few hours of skiing and feels like what a really good foam injection procedure felt like years ago. It's no secret that we're skiing rock-hard groom here in Breckenridge right now. The edge-to-edge advantage in the Gara's is hard to ignore. We're also ski-compacting some of our avalanche terrain which involves lots of kick-turns and breaking up windslab snow. The feeling of having my flat/wide SoCal skateboard feet totally locked in with no pressure points is one I haven't felt since these boots were noew...and even then. Hauling a 250-pound knee patient over a thousand vertical feet on skied-off groom was the ultimate test for the Gara HV's. Passing with flying colors. Its actually really fun to be Patroller again.

Been skiing in em for 10 days or so and so far they're bomber and hold my feet tight and right where I want. 5th start will come after 100, 200, 300+ days when I can truly see what the hype is all about. Friggen stoked so far tho!

I ski in a Lange 130 RS, wide, and could not get that 125% fit and ordered the new Gara HV (high volume) and oh, what a relief it is... That 'high volume' has made an amazing difference. I have skied since the middle of last century and fall into the category of "Grooomer Boomer" and the ZipFit is absolutely the best, most comfortable, supportive inner boot I ever skied in. That everchanging, moldable cork really makes the difference... (Had I known, I would have started saving my wine corks a long time ago...).

I've skied for 28 years and have always been averse to gimmicks in ski gear/technology. Zips aren't a gimmick. These liners are just an entirely different level of performance. Now when I think about it, it's crazy to think that we all have skied in foam liners for so long. Zipfits are a proper boot - made with leather, clearly designed around the shape of a foot and a leg, and built with quality and care. I look at old foam liners now, they're not that different from the foam liner in my Sorel winter boots - they're pathetic. I'm more than satisfied with the quality of these liners based on the comfort and performance alone- if I can get half as many days as some other Zipfit users, I'll be over the moon. I ski this liner in a Fischer Curv 130
