The Tecnica Cochise 95 HV W DYN GW 23/24 is a women’s freeride ski boot built to handle everything from groomed runs to deep snow and bootpack approaches. It blends downhill control with touring-friendly features, making it a solid choice for riders who want both support on descents and extra mobility for uphill excursions.

With a flex rating of 95, this boot delivers a responsive feel underfoot without feeling overly stiff, which helps maintain comfort during long days on the mountain. The high-volume shell offers extra room through the forefoot and toe box, reducing pressure points for those with wider feet. Meanwhile, a generous 42° range of motion in walk mode eases climbing and traversing, so you can skin or hike uphill with less strain before locking in for the ride down.

The flex number indicates how much resistance the cuff provides when you lean forward—a 95 flex sits in the comfort category for women’s boots, offering a balance between support and forgiveness. “High volume” refers to the shell’s internal width (often around a 102 mm last), which prevents hotspots and improves circulation for broader foot shapes. The 42° range of motion measures how far the cuff can swing in walk mode, making uphill movement more natural and reducing fatigue when you’re on tour.
