The HO Venom Boot was a favorite in the early 2000s as a soft complement to the best-selling Animal Boot Collection. Skiers enjoyed the softer feel of the Venom as a rear boot to compliment a stiff front boot. HO Sports hastaken that vision of optimized back boot performance and developed it further. Theyemployed a Soft Natural Rubber toe and heel and combined it with a Thin Natural Rubber overlay. Furthermore, theydesigned a Low Drag Wrap Configuration, with tucked-away connection points, thereby virtually eliminating where the back boot traditionally catches on the water. The result is a sleek rear slalom boot that doesn't catch on the water, allowing skiers to better maintain speed on the course.
