do you think it would be posstible to fit these boots to a rather wide foot, given the plastics they use in the shoe and with the forefoot articulation?

A little flex sounds like a good idea. I balk at calling anything in this race class "heavy," but I'm not a race freak and ski in boots light to the average tourer--Garmont Megalite.

An interesting note is that the International Ski Mountaineering Federation (www.ismf-ski.org) may not allow gear modifications starting in 2010. Currently, they dont allow mods on some gear or maybe they allow mods that are manufacturer authorized. It's hard to tell, but it would be a bummer to not be allowed into a race if your boot or other gear was modified. Maybe Federico has some insight.

Drop me an email if you get a chance. Thoughts on the Dyanfit race boot. Looks really awesome, especially for a light boot for all around touring. It looks pleanty robust which might be a problem with all carbon boots. However, it is still signicantly heavier ( 920 g, I assume that is one boot with liner and insole compared to my size 27 Pierre Gignoux all carbon boot at 750 g.) As the link above shows, there will be three all carbon boots out soon and two carbon cuffed (the F1 Carbon and the Dynafit); I would love to see Dynafit put out an all carbon boot eventually!
