Cheers! Hopefully our paths do cross soon. It is snowing outside right now! Going to be a good day tomorrow. These photos were all taken last season: From the top down:

I just got the BD Quadrant and like them well so far. They seem to be kind of in the same class as the Maestrale, stiff, light-ish, large walk range. Nice photos. Were these taken this season? I need to be where you've been if so. Looking forward to the snow that's falling right now, finally! Have fun out there, hopefully our paths will cross soon. Thanks Jason!

They do not have the same range of motion as the Maestrales, and they are a few ounces heavier... From all things that I can see from just holding them (I have not skied the ZZero) they will ski great, and I like the buckle system over the Maestrale buckle/straps. The Intuition liner (Scarpa) is also such a tried and true performer that I have a slight bias there as well. So...Not really a recommendation in there for one over the other... The real test is to try them on and see which fits better. Dynafit can tend to be lower volume, Scarpa fit a lightly wider foot.
