Tecnica Mach1 LV 130 Ski Boot - 2026

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "The Mach1 130 LV has been my daily driver this season, and the updates are a huge step forward. The T-Drive 2.0 spine gives incredible responsiveness without feeling blocky, and the Quick Instep makes entry and exit so much easier than most LV boots. It’s powerful, precise, and surprisingly comfortable for a 98mm last." For skiers who demand uncompromising power and precision, the Tecnica Mach1 LV 130 Ski Boot continues its legacy as one of the most trusted high-performance boots on the mountain. With a stiff 130 flex and a low-volume 98mm last, it’s engineered for advanced and expert skiers who need maximum control at speed without sacrificing comfort.Tecnica’s T-Drive 2.0 spine is the standout update, providing independent reinforcement on both the medial and lateral sides for a stiffer, more reactive feel that still allows natural flex. The CAS shell and liner deliver a customizable fit, while the Quick Instep softer plastic insert eases entry and exit—something every LV skier can appreciate. A lightweight construction at just under 2000g keeps energy high without sacrificing downhill stability.On snow, the Mach1 130 LV feels precise, energetic, and connected, pairing best with freeride and all-mountain skis that demand responsiveness. GripWalk soles, a four-buckle closure, and a cam-style power strap round out a boot that’s as polished in fit and finish as it is aggressive in performance.
