ABSTRACT:
A ski boot having a cuff movably mounted to a lower shell at two or more mounting points. The mounting points each include a protrusion guided along an elongate path to allow a combination of relative pivotal and linear movement between the cuff and shell. The paths, typically slots, are located and configured so that the lower leading edge of the cuff moves along a path generally parallel to the instep of the lower shell. A connector can be mounted to and between the lower shell and the cuff to limit rearward movement of the front cuff to one or more positions corresponding to optimum initial angles of the user's lower leg. The connector can also include a spring to resist forward movement of the cuff.
