I ride the ceptor because of the feel and fit. I love lace boots cause i sometimes don't lace all the way to the top and the alpha liner's breathability is amazing. It's stiffness suits my riding style and i love how fast it breaks in. - devun walsh
Key Features of the DC Ceptor Snowboard Boots:
Flex: 8
Cinch Closure System: Lacing your boots in cold weather is a recipe for cracked, rope-burned fingers. the Cinch is your solution to the worst part about laced boots. Just tighten the lower region and the Cinch will secure your lace. then start lacing the upper, it’s that simple. no need for constant pressure to get tight boots.
Direct Power Lacing: strategically designed overlays in the boots upper provide more power and leverage for optimal shell closure.
WrapLock: wrap Lock hardware prevents your laces from slipping by simply wrapping around the hardware. this can turn your traditional lace boot into a zonal closure system by locking the lace at key points.

These boots look awesome, flex awesomely, but the fit is kind of odd on mine. The fast laces on the liner come undone very easily, making for a extremely loose heel. However, this boot absorbs a lot of shock and breathes pretty well. I, personally, am not a giant fan of the traditional laces, but they look great.
