How much shipped to 98801?

I also have a set for sale, so once these are gone, anyone interested can send me a PM

I bought the ATB's a few years back when I got into hard booting, then bought some used RTR for my son and remade them as a poor man's ATB. The ATB is in excellent condition, hardly used during the one season we rode hard boots. The RTR is in good condition, most wear being from the previous owner, soles are barley worn. The boots are set up with different tongues so the flex was made "comparable". The ATB has a "mid stiff" black tongue and the RTR has a "soft" red tongue. The boots have similar flex patterns, with the ATB having a slightly softer shell. Shell fit is identical. The ATB have the stock Flo liners, the RTR have Scarpa (Intuition) wrap liners; note that the RTR pictures show red liners shown and a velcro power band, but they are now black liners, same size and fit and they have a "bungee style" power band. I also have a "stiff" grey tongue that I can sell seperately OR in combination with one of the boots OR I can swap tongues to whatever configuration folks want. I also have one set of used alpine heel and toe pieces I can throw in for folks who don't want the hiking sole, as well, you can always buy alpine sole pieces and reconfigure the boots for alpine only. Both boots are shell size 291/312. Liners are sz 12-13. My son and I wear a sz 13 street shoe. Looking for best offer plus shipping, lower 48 only. I'm not on the forum much, so you'll get a faster response if you send an email to benkadasATgmailDotcom ATB: RTR:

I paid $650 last summer, current retail is $625, but there is a sale on for $100 off, so $525 is the lowest retail price. These boots come with a custom tongue option (black), which is really how they should come standard. Anyway, I just got low balled so I'm a little irked, but beside that, I'd say 2/3 of retail is a fair price. I might bicker some, depends on the buyer. I am looking for a board, specifically an SG Cult in the longer length (168), this is what I'll be buying with the proceeds from the boots. So maybe someone with the "spare" right board could make me a deal, hint, hint, hint :)

Updated with pictures. Someone buy these boots so I can send Bola some money :)

Yes, they are still for sale, liners are included. Do you want them with the red soft tongue or the stiffer black tongue? I also have the stiffest grey tongue available. Personally I think they ride better with a stiffer tongue, esp if you plan to use them unlocked. I'm motivated to sell them...send me a PM with your email and I'll send you some pics. Ben

These are the 2010 ATB with the white/clear colored shell, liners are UPZ, tongue choices include Red (soft OEM tongue), Black (mid stiff), Grey (stiff), currently they are set up with Black tongues which I think give them a little needed support. They were used last Summer for five days at A Basin, then a couple days over Xmas break. I have another pair of UPZ ATB boots, so these are up for sale. UPZ liners are from another a slightly older pair of UPZ boots, flow liners, leather construction, adjustable/removeable velcro tongue, in good condition. Inside shell dimension is 285mm. I wear a sz 13 street shoe/running shoe, and they fit me well, but my son wears the same size shoes, has extra long big toes, and he says they're too short. Barefoot standing in the shell, I have ~1/2-3/4" of space behind my heel. In the liner my toes barely touch the end and when buckled up and riding they fit perfect. Shells are labeled 8.5/9/9.5 and 291/312mm. For a good fit, I'd suggest sizing your foot to the shell so that, barefooted with your foot flat inside the boot and your toes touching the end of the boot, you have 1/2-3/4" of space remaining behind your heel. To figure out your fit, measure your bare foot standing flat footed on the floor, then add some wiggle room. Cash Price: $400 plus shipping from 37830. USA sales only, thanks for understanding. Trades: I have my heart set on an SG Cult 168, so if you have one to trade, well let's make a deal! I might consider other boards, but it needs to be a similar style of board...no junk or beaters, 23ish waist, stiffish, pow tip, AM board for a 200# guy. Pictures added:

The white ATB's on the left of this picture are the ones for sale, liners are UPZ or Scarpa Thermowraps, buyers choice. Accepting offers, can provide more pics if needed, boots have been ridden fewer than one dozen tims, not hiked, resort use only.

Not parting out, boots sold as is with a choice of tongues, that is all; as if that's not enough :rolleyes: I'll post pics Sunday. Shipping from Tennessee, 37830. These are some great boots, but I have my other set of RTR with the ATB soles, so I'm selling the nicer of the two sets. Even though the shells are the same, the ATB seems to have a little more volume than the older RTR. FYI, the ATB with black tongue is very similar to the RTR with red tongue.

I have two pairs of ATB's, one set was supposed to be for my son, but he's not taking to hard booting, so I'm lookiing to sell one pair to fill the new board fund :D I can't post pics from here, but when I get back from Utah I'll get some up. Presently the boots are set up with the mid stiff black tongue, which works better in my opinion, but I can put the red tongue back on if this is preferred, I also have the stiff grey tongue. Looking for best offer... Boot is marked with a 291/312 boot sole length. Inside shell measures ~12.5" heel to toe. I wear a mondo 30 in ski boots, a sz 13 in most street shoes and running shoes. I have a medium to low volume/narrower foot and they fit fine, but I use spacers and a thick insole to get a good fit. They would fit a fatter foot for sure, esp high volume and high arch.

@Hilux Try riding them with liners from your other boots. Did you heat them yet? If you have pain where the tongue edge presses into your shin, you may need to try and curve/flex them backwards so the edge is flatter. Also, with heating this edge will recess into the liner. They are stiff liners, so even though I have a set, both of my boots are set up with Scarpa thermowraps. BTW, my son and I used the UPZ RTR-ATB with the red tongue (soft) and the UPZ ATB-ATB with the black tongue (medium),, they are pretty close to the same feel, though it seems like the RTR with red tongue is a little bit softer flexing; I rode them the most.

UPZ is sorta widish, go long and you might get a good fit, consider an aftermarket liner that is all thermofit and will squish down; he factory liner is not as "squishable". Do the linerless fit first, ie put your foot in the shell with the liner removed. If you get a fit that allows for a liner fill on either side of your foot, then you're golden. Length, well, you gotta a fat foot so that's the price you pay :D

Okay, so the tongue swap was easy, just remove one buckle and clasp from the black tongue and RTR boot, then swap away. I plugged the holes with rubber sealant, worked great so far. I did end up using a long clasp (ladder) on the black tongue because the positioning placed it to far for the buckle to reach. Adding the AT soles to the RTR was trickier, the heel is a perfect fit, but the toe requires some shaving along the edges where two ridges prevent the toe from making good contact with the boot shell. it was easilly done with a razor knife in fifteen minutes. I'm hard pressed to say which boot combo I like best. For sure, the white "soft shell" ATB is a better all around boot with a stiffer tongue and likewise the RTR is a nicer all around boot and soft snow capable. Both were ridden locked and unlocked depending on snow conditions. I like UPZ boots :) Next step: Adding tech fittings (dynafittings) to one sole set for splitboard use.

Anyone in line for this yet? Can you put up some pics? Thin edges, as in ground a few time and became thin??

No need to file anything, just contact your credit card company once the charge has come through, then tell them (VISA or whomever) that the product was not delivered and to cancel the charge. It is very easy to do, I had to cancel a charge on a Concept II Rower ($550) and VISA took care of the rest.
