![]() ![]() When that happens I get shock waves through my entire body, as if I got blasted with a lightning bolt (no joke). #Salomon xwave 8 ski boot plus#I've learned to generate a LOT of leverage from my feet, so the tongue/cuff of the boot serves to create more stability than leverage, PLUS shock absorption, so that my ankle doesn't get cranked when I run into something hard. My shin does not like overly stiff boots, requires the right balance of stiffness, forward lean and ramp angle. However, my shin lost a lot of muscle, has a screw right in the middle where the tongue could hit and can be a bit tender. My left ankle, I believe has severe calcification which restricts my dorsiflexion to about 90°, though I can extend relatively normally. I was in an accident many years ago where my left leg suffered major damage. My condition is somewhat unique and a bit of a conundrum. The reason I am inquiring is because I want to gauge what I might buy vs what I have. What can you guys tell me about today's flex ratings, and perhaps specifically about where this Lange RX100 fits into the scheme of things? TIA I have no idea how these boots are going to feel on the hill and while I don't like super stiff boots, I don't want boots that are too soft and will flex out the first time I hit a big bump. ![]() But this boot is listed for "strong intermediates to expert skiers". And the 100 flex may have even been softer than my old Salomons. I tried on a pair of Lange RX100's (100 flex). My boots liners are pretty well packed out and a new liner doesn't make sense. Back then 110 was super stiff and only pure race boots were stiffer yet. The Salomon XWave 8.0's are rated at 90 flex, but to me feel stiffer. I used to destroy boots in a season, but now am very light on the tongues, ski from the bottoms of my feet and the tongue/cuff mostly acts as shock absorption and stability more than as leverage. I have a light touch and don't pummel turns like I used to do as a less accomplished skier. ![]() I've been in the same Salomon boots for over 15 years now. ![]()

Kees Schouhamer Immink received a personal Emmy award for his pioneering contributions to the DVD and the Blu-ray Disc. 3.8.1 High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection.For playback of 4K content, the BDA introduced a variant of Blu-ray called Ultra HD Blu-ray. broadband households had a Blu-ray player. Blu-ray faces competition from video on demand (VOD) and the continued sale of DVDs. #DVDFAB HD DECRYPTER 5.2 3.2 KEY SOFTWARE#According to Media Research, high-definition software sales in the United States were slower in the first two years than DVD software sales. Toshiba, the main company supporting HD DVD, conceded in February 2008, and later released its own Blu-ray Disc player in late 2009. Afterward, it continued to be developed until its official worldwide release on June 20, 2006, beginning the high-definition optical disc format war, where Blu-ray Disc competed with the HD DVD format. ![]() Sony unveiled the first Blu-ray Disc prototypes in October 2000, and the first prototype player was released in Japan in April 2003. The BD format was developed by the Blu-ray Disc Association, a group representing makers of consumer electronics, computer hardware, and motion pictures. Besides these hardware specifications, Blu-ray is associated with a set of multimedia formats. DVD-Video discs were limited to a maximum resolution of 480 ( NTSC, 720×480 pixels) or 576 lines (CCIR 625/50, 720×576 pixels, commonly used with PAL). High-definition (HD) video may be stored on Blu-ray Discs with up to 1920×1080 pixel resolution, at 24 progressive or 50/60 interlaced frames per second. Triple-layer discs (100 GB) and quadruple-layer discs (128 GB) are available for BD-XL re-writer drives. Conventional or pre-BD-XL Blu-ray Discs contain 25 GB per layer, with dual-layer discs (50 GB) being the industry standard for feature-length video discs. The polycarbonate disc is 120 millimetres (4.7 in) in diameter and 1.2 millimetres (0.047 in) thick, the same size as DVDs and CDs. ![]() The name "Blu-ray" refers to the blue laser (which is actually a violet laser) used to read the disc, which allows information to be stored at a greater density than is possible with the longer-wavelength red laser used for DVDs. #DVDFAB HD DECRYPTER 5.2 3.2 KEY SERIES#The main application of Blu-ray is as a medium for video material such as feature films and for the physical distribution of video games for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X. #DVDFAB HD DECRYPTER 5.2 3.2 KEY 720P#It is designed to supersede the DVD format, and capable of storing several hours of high-definition video (HDTV 720p and 1080p). The Blu-ray Disc ( BD), often known simply as Blu-ray, is a digital optical disc storage format.
