First Look: SCARPA’s New TX Pro Telemark Boot
PSIA-AASI Official Supplier SCARPA is offering free-heel skiers a first look at the brand’s new TX Pro telemark boot, which will be available Fall 2024.
Following many years of product category research and direct engagement with the telemark-skiing community, SCARPA will introduce a completely new version of the TX Pro, the brand’s pace-setting telemark boot.
In a press release, SCARPA stated that the new boot is, “A testament to SCARPA’s commitment to the telemark community, the development of the new TX Pro involved extensive collaboration with telemark skiers, athletes, and binding manufacturers.”
“Telemark is all about style and flow – it’s just got a very different vibe about it,” said Kim Miller, CEO of SCARPA North America. “And that’s the case with the telemark community as well. It’s quirky, but it’s very soulful. People are heavily invested in the different kinds of gear they use and want to share their knowledge around that.”
The new TX Pro is very lightweight – a 12% weight reduction compared to the previous TX Pro. It also features friction-free walking in touring mode, with a huge increase in range of motion compared to its predecessor, matching the weight and function of modern AT boots like SCARPA’s Maestrale and Gea family. SCARPA also reduced the volume of the boot to improve fit and performance. Moreover, the TX Pro is compatible with all modern telemark bindings on the market, including NTN and Tele Tech bindings, making these versatile boots equally at home at the resort and in the backcountry.
In the new TX Pro, SCARPA employs triple-injection technology that it developed specifically for a telemark boot, making it the most complicated SCARPA manufactures. The use of materials of different densities in the shell, bellows, and toe – combined with a Torsion Bridge Frame that places stiffer material in a frame that wraps from heel to toe and across the forefoot – makes it possible to create a boot that is lightweight and flexes easily, yet at the same time provides superior torsional support.
