On top of recoil, the Zeus is using the best fitting tongue ever to be used in a wakeboard boot. The Articulated Toe is precisely cut EVA covered in lycra and neoprene. Since no two feet are the same, this segmented toe will perfectly wrap around any foot out there. A longer toe rubber gives increased board response without looking like clown shoes. The patent pending Hinge Tech system gives you the best heel hold down ever. You can quote us. It will again be the king.
