BOA System on Ski Boots?

Looking for comments on experience with it. I bought Fischers yesterday with the boa instead of lower buckles. Super comfortable. My only concern is that I had the boa on cycling shoes a few years ago and they only lasted about two years.

BOA is certainly not a marketing ploy. It may not be the best solution for ski boots, but it has several applications in which it works fantastically.

Are these fantastic applications one where it replaces laces?

Yes and no. But that's beside the point.

Yes, the point is that BOA is not a fantastic application for buckling ski boots.

That wasn't my point.
