About Dragon 120: The new Dragon 120 from Tecnica is the top of the line within the Dragon series. It offers the most performance, the most precision, sensitivity, skiibility, basically. It's the stiffest of the Dragon series. It has a 120 flex. Some of the features in this are our new 3-D molding technology, which is third generation. You can see you have two different plastics, the orange and the clear. The clear is the hardest plastic that creates the frame; the orange is the softest. And you can see that it's asymmetrical. On the inside you have a lot more clear material. That directs more power to the inside edge where you're putting in the sensitivity. Then you add the combination of clear and orange which creates a medium flex which is a combination of the two. And then over the instep is just the orange, and that is a very soft material, allows for easy entry and exit.

Dragon 120 - Lean and Height
Dragon 120 - Lean and Height: Another thing about the 120, or the whole Dragon series, is we've taken our race boot technology and we've taken the forward lean, and we've straightened it up a little bit for a little bit easier stance for all day skiing. And we've taken the whole height of the boot and raised the height of the boot to what our race boot is to allow for greater shin pressure distribution and energy transmission into the tip of the ski.
Dragon 120 - Liner
Dragon 120 – Liner: Over the last year our R&D team has done a lot of research into new materials and how those materials are put together and that’s seen throughout the whole Dragon line. This is the liner of the Dragon 120 that features an EVA heat-moldable and also a heat-moldable internal lining. The 120 features the heel fit-lock system, which the boot comes with inserts which customize the amount of heel pressure or heel hold you’re going to have. Also, the Velcro spoiler can adjust your forward lean and also you can position it differently for personal customization.
