2027 Tecnica Zero G Decoy Pro

The Zero G Decoy Pro hits a sweet spot we really like in a freeride touring boot. It has the range of motion to make the climb genuinely enjoyable, but when it's time to ski, the 130 flex and more substantial construction give you the support you'd expect from a much more downhill-focused boot. For skiers who don't want to choose between a capable touring boot and a powerful ski boot, the Decoy Pro is a seriously compelling option.

Consider Another Option If

Consider another option if minimizing weight on long tours is a higher priority than downhill support, or if you don't need the freeride-oriented construction of the Decoy Pro.

• Advanced to expert ski tourers
• Freeride touring
• Sidecountry laps
• Powder skiing
• Steep alpine terrain
• Skiers looking for one boot that performs exceptionally well both uphill and downhil

Power Frame Construction: Uses a more robust polyurethane shell structure to provide the stability and responsiveness needed to drive wider, performance-oriented skis.

65° Range of Motion: Provides substantial cuff movement for touring while retaining the boot's downhill-focused construction.

Co-Injected Cuff: Combines Grilamid and reinforcement in a stiff, responsive cuff designed to support power transmission.

Full C.A.S. Fit System: The shell and liner use Tecnica's customizable C.A.S. system to provide bootfitters with options for refining the fit.

Quick Instep: Uses softer material over the instep to make getting into and out of the boot easier.

Performance Elastic Power Lock Strap: Provides additional cuff closure and uses a quick-release hook for easier opening.

Is the Zero G Decoy Pro a touring boot or an alpine boot?

It's a hybrid touring boot. It features tech inserts and an efficient walk mode for skinning while delivering a downhill feel that's much closer to an alpine freeride boot than most lightweight touring models.

Can the Tecnica Zero G Decoy Pro be used with tech bindings?

Yes. The GripWalk soles include DYN tech inserts for compatible pin bindings. Binding compatibility should still be confirmed for the specific binding being used.

Is the Zero G Decoy Pro the same type of boot as the Zero G Tour Pro?

No. Tecnica positions the Decoy Pro for freeride and backcountry touring, while the Zero G Tour Pro is more specifically touring-focused. The Decoy Pro is also substantially heavier at 1,715 g compared with Tecnica's published 1,285 g for the Tour Pro.
