Dalbello Virus problems
Have been using Dalbello Virus AT boots this season. I seem to be having problems locking into ski mode after a climb. The pin that should click in seems to be sticky in colder temps. Going to lube it up and see if that helps.
Wondering if anyone has these boots and experienced any similar issues?
Do you have any pics so we can see what you are talking about in more detail?

I have experienced similar probs but with other boots. I am not familiar with the Dalbello though. Can you take a look at the walk/ski mechanism and figure it out? Applying lube may not be the answer... you may actually want more friction. Maybe send the manufacturer an email?
I have a pair, and find that when they get wet and frozen i have to lean very hard forward to get them to engage...harder than normal. but never had them ice up on me yet...but I don't have that many days on them yet.
