Vasja, I’m sorry, but I don’t have any personal experience with the Scarpa.

Julien, sorry for the slow reply- I missed your comment! I used the spoiler in my older Cochise boots, but I never felt the need with this boot. I’m not even sure that it came with spoilers.

I have seen you are not using the spoilers that you can attach via Velcro to the Palau liners. Is it not useful? or maybe this one doesn’t have given that the shell is slightly higher. I have the previous model.

Eastcoastskier, sorry for the slow reply. I have skied the mtnlab, but I haven’t skied these two boots back to back. The mtnlab will tour slightly better by virtue of an increased range of motion. I found the fit to be a bit loose, and wished it had a third buckle- my forefoot could swim around in those mtnlabs. As for skiing, the stiffness is fairly similar, but the Tecnica is far more progressive, compared to the mtnlab’s off/on character.

For me, the Tecnica fits much better, so I’ll take the better fit+ better downhill performance over the slight touring capability of the mtnlab.

Hey eastcoastDan, thanks for the question. I was using the original 120 Cochise, and that’s the comparison. The zero G is very slightly less stiff- but I actually like the flex better, it’s a little smoother. I’m not sure why, perhaps because the fit is better without 2 layers of bontex, like I needed to do with the 120 Cochise shell…
