What is Power Shift 2.0?

Power Shift 2.0 is a shim system that lets you adjust forward lean angle. More forward lean gives a more aggressive, responsive feel; more upright is easier on the shins and better for a relaxed stance. Your bootfitter can set this during the initial fitting.

Is the Hawx Prime 110 S BOA GW compatible with my bindings?

GripWalk ISO 23223 soles work with GripWalk, MNC, and MN bindings. Most modern alpine bindings from major brands support GripWalk. If your bindings are older and only accept ISO 5355, check compatibility first or consider the non-GW Hawx Prime 110 BOA.

How does this compare to the Hawx Prime 100 BOA GW?

The 110 S has stiffer flex (110 vs 100), a better liner (Mimic Gold vs Mimic Silver with Ankle Lock), and Power Shift 2.0. The 100 is the better value for intermediate skiers; the 110 S is for advanced skiers who will feel the difference in both stiffness and liner quality.

The 110-flex, BOA version of Atomic's medium-volume Hawx Prime, on the 100mm last that fits the most common foot shape. A BOA H+i1 dial draws the forefoot snug instead of lower buckles; two aluminium buckles close the cuff. The "S" build adds adjustable forward lean, the upgraded heat-moldable Mimic Gold liner, and Thinsulate.

Medium-width feet (100mm last) with an average instep
Advanced skiers, or strong intermediates wanting push-back short of a 130
Skiers who get forefoot hot spots from buckles and want an even wrap from one dial

Narrow, low-volume feet — look at the Hawx Ultra (98mm)
Wide, high-volume feet — look at the Hawx Magna (102mm). BOA tightens; it does not add width
Returning skiers or lighter intermediates wanting a forgiving boot — step down a flex
Anyone picking on flex number alone — flex isn't standardized; fit and last matter more

A resort boot with no walk mode and a GripWalk (ISO 23223) sole, so run GripWalk, MNC, or MN bindings. Get the last right first; the BOA fine-tunes the wrap, it doesn't rescue the wrong fit. Come in for a shell check and mold before you commit.

The Hawx Prime 110 S BOA GW is the best all-around boot in Atomic's medium-volume lineup. You get BOA H+i1 on the lower foot, Mimic Gold liner with pre-shaped heel and ankle zones, cantable GripWalk soles, and Power Shift 2.0 forward lean adjustment — every meaningful upgrade short of the 120 S flex tier. The Mimic Gold liner is the real differentiator over the non-S model: it heat-molds tighter around the ankle and holds the heel noticeably better than the Silver version.

Direct competitor is the Salomon S/PRO Alpha 110 S BOA, which runs slightly narrower through the midfoot at the same 100mm spec. The Tecnica Mach1 MV 110 is another option if you prefer a traditional buckle setup over BOA. If you're between the 110 and the 100 flex Hawx Prime BOA already in the shop, and you ski more than 15 days a year on anything beyond groomers, go with the 110.

Strengths

+Mimic Gold liner with pre-shaped ankle — best heel hold below the Platinum tier
+Power Shift 2.0 adjustable forward lean for stance tuning
+BOA H+i1 + cantable GripWalk — modern closure and modern sole in one package

Best For

Advanced all-mountain skiers with medium-volume feet who want the best BOA-equipped boot under the 120 flex threshold.

Limitations

−Price premium over the non-S/non-GW version adds up if your bindings are already standard alpine
−No walk mode — touring approaches require the Hawx Prime XTD line
−BOA cable is durable but not field-serviceable if it fails mid-day

Not For

Wide feet (102mm+ → Hawx Magna), lighter skiers who would flex out a 110, or backcountry tourers who need walk mode.
