Following on from last season, the MACH1 LV series has been further renewed for the 2025-2026 season. This season's update includes the adoption of the new T-Drive 2.0. This Tecnica proprietary technology, T-Drive 2.0, is a two-piece structure that actively connects the upper cuff and lower shell, allowing the cuff to move slightly in the direction of the turn, strengthening the transfer of power to the front of the boot where skiers need it most
This reduces shell deformation, maintaining a consistent, progressive and stable flex regardless of temperature, allowing the boot's potential to be utilized regardless of temperature, enabling efficient power transmission. This will maximize the power of the boot and lead to a higher level of skiing
Highly recommended by tour guides! "ZERO G TOUR" series
Tecnica's "ZERO G TOUR" series is a touring model. It's been around since last season, but its popularity has been growing year by year. Not only is it lightweight for hiking, it also has sufficient rigidity for freeriding. Due to its high boot potential, it is highly trusted by professional tour guides who make a living as tour guides
The "T-Hike" featured in the "ZERO G TOUR" series features a double-blocking mechanism. This mechanism connects the boot shell and cuff (ankle part) at two points, ensuring free range of motion in walking mode while achieving high rigidity and power transmission when descending. In particular, the internal spoiler is designed to give the boot a unique rigidity
"COCHISE" is the best! The number of loyal users is increasing
COCHISE is a model aimed at intermediate to advanced skiers who enjoy freeriding and backcountry skiing. It seems that the number of users has been declining in recent years, but the reliable performance and practicality of the ski have brought back COCHISE users! "This is a model that has been popular for a while now," says a manufacturer representative
Equipped with walk mode, it is compatible with tech bindings (DYN). CAS (Custom Adaptive Shape) technology, a heat-moldable shell and inner liner, provides a custom fit for each individual foot shape, improving comfort and performance. Additionally, Asymmetrical Power Transmission uses thicker plastic on the inside of the boot to enhance lateral power transmission and edge grip. Furthermore, the Freemove hinge point allows you to hike with less energy. While equipped with all these features, the boots also boast an environmentally friendly design, using recycled materials and a PVC-free eco-design, which adds to their appeal
Its high functionality and high performance make it perfect for both skating and walking. This is why some people have started whispering about the "COCHISE myth," with people saying things like, "I want to wear COCHISE someday" or "Skilled skiers wear COCHISE."
Tecnica began as a shoe factory in the small town of Giavera in northern Italy in the 1930s. In 1970, they released the MOON BOOT®, an après-ski snow boot with an unprecedentedly innovative design, which became an explosive hit. In 1973, they released the world's first plastic ski boots, made using the "bi-injection" method, in which two different materials are poured into a single mold to form a single piece. These two epoch-making products made Tecnica a prestigious, long-established boot manufacturer with a reputation known worldwide
Since then, the company has continued to produce boots that combine comfortable wear with high-tech performance based on ergonomics and exercise physiology, such as the development of the ``AVS (Anti-Vibration System) sole,'' which absorbs unnecessary shocks and vibrations transmitted to the boots while skiing, and ``Rapid Access,'' which makes it easy to put on and take off boots
