Northwave Prophecy S SL

Every day in the park demands versatility.

Conceptualised and tested by the Northwave Pro Team, the Prophecy S SL has a look designed with the riders in mind. Every day in the park demands the versatility brought by the custom flex tongue. One of the premier boots in the line, the Prophecy will eternally deliver the goods on the hill and in the park.

Outer Boot
Built into the exterior of your boot, the Rubber Shield guards against abrasion, wear and tear, and will give your boot extra reinforcement over its lifetime. The Flex Window enhances comfort and mobility in your foot, and it perfectly represents the balance between power transmission and progressive flex. The side parts of the collar area slide on the upper cuff, transferring power in a consistent way avoiding any possible overlap between materials which could lead to a waste of energy.

TF3 Pro Liner
The TF3 Pro is the TF3 but juiced up with a unique liner that works with our Corset Lacing on the Prophecy to give you the most consistent flex and foot security while riding. The laces are guided in a unique pattern to avoid issues with the corset.
Advanced lining material constructed of Thermo-Fit Foam enhances target fit zones that can be customised instantly with a heater or over time from natural body heat for the perfect fit. Malleable fit areas are anatomically designed and reinforced with injected memory foam for better fit retention and comfort for your feet. Brand new webbing on the liner, and with loops that have been positioned on the edges of the liner, exclusive tongue side-cut naturally adapts to your instep, permitting the most custom fit, and distributing power transmission of equally through the surface of the liner make this fit unique. Velcro Power strap for superior fit: it gives an extra prop on the upper part of the liner providing a more secure liner closure supported by the liner lace lock. The Contour Cushion Footbed consists on two EVA: one green and one black. The green part, more rigid, maintains the stability of your foot while the black part absorbs the strongest impacts.

Outsole
The second generation of Crossbow takes the weightlessness and softness of its unique EVA compound, and it is updated with the ultimate Double Crossbow system, which results in the best performing sole on the market with four different grip areas. The new crossbow system provides a perfect balance of power transmission and cushioning. This particular outsole design is developed to allow maximum flexibility and the excellent feel throughout your foot.

Lacing
The Super Lace SL Speed Lacing System allows the closure of two different boot areas, the quarter part, and the collar part, to enable you to select the perfect feeling on each part and improve comfort and foot stability. Your boot will be closed quickly and will stay tight and perform all day. The 540° Heel Retention System passes the boot laces through pre-curved lace loops which help to minimise friction. When the laces are pulled to close the boot, they are simultaneously pulling the webbing where the lace loops are linked tight increasing heel stability. This mechanism is a result of the webbing passing through a hole from the side of the boot tightening the liner over the ankle area. The more the lace is pulled, the more power will be transferred to the ankle area, increasing heel retention performance and foot stability.
