The ease, wide-footed fit. (closed cell foam)

The price ... The adjustments on the buckles are too small at the end of the day.

These are the perfect freeriders boot. They are confortable as true randonne boots and stiff as alpine ski boots. I tried Atomic B10 alpine boots the day before Adrenalin and find the latter more precise and progressive. I'mm 44, 184 cm and 86 kgs and I ski an average of 60 days per season, 30% randonne, 30% freeriding, 30% groomed and 10 % telemark. I've been a great fan of Scarpa; I had Laser and now have Matrix and Denali. I've been using Matrix for big climbing randonne and Denali for freeriding and groomed piste, T2 for Tele with friends. I bought Adrenalin last week and skied 3 days on them: they are simply racing alpine boots you can also moderately climb on. For more than 1000 mt climbs I'll still use Matrix for lightweight and walking comfort but for everything else I'll use Adrenalin. If you can have more than one boots buy lighter boots like Matrix or TLT or Mega Lite for real climbing and Adrenalin for everything else. If you can only have one go for Denali which are the best compromise.

These boots rock. As someone with EEE feet, I've been struggling to find an AT boot that fit well and these do. I just spent a weekend at Jay Peak putting them through the paces on my BD Arc Angels with Fritschi Freerides and felt great on everything from powder to hardpack on the steeps and in the trees. Great choice for a combined on-piste and backcountry setup. The thermo liners kept them much toastier than the Lowa Structuras that I've been skiing in. A little pricey, but I won't be buing another pair of boots for a looong time now that I've found these.
