i getting a new pair of boots this year, and am debating on which ones to get. i tried on a pair of the kneissl flexon pro t's and they seemed pretty good. any other suggestions on what to get or what is good?

Atomic Boots are awesome. I got a pair Atomic Smart Zone boots. They have a mid flex so they are soft enough for the park and stiff enough for anywhere else. Not to mention the sick colors (mine are metallic blue with orange and chrome buckles). They are light, comfortable and very durable. I highly suggest you check them out!

i agree with skibum, they are fantastic, but i also would try out the new smart tech series from nordica, if your on a budget then atomic all the way though
There's only 1 thing worse about not getn sponsored by a favoured ski company, its getn sponsored by disgusting protein bars

the kneissl boot is awesome, i have it for this year and it is possibly the best boot i have ever had. raichle made boots for kneissl and line this year, which are pretty much identical just with different buckles and different names. i would get the kneissl's for sure man.

hey dude you want a real park boot, take a saw and cut off the bottom plate of your boot which goes inot the binding, then screw it into some old sorels. tap a few sticks around your leg for lateral support and your set. all this for like 25 bucks. easy and a great boot. go for it.

dude, the right boot is the one that fits your foot. dont take advise about boots over the web, go to a boot fitter like
www.skibootfitting.com

Vtrider, you just said don't take advise over the web, and then you said go to skibootfitting.com, which is obviously over the web! What are you wasted or something?

I do agree with you though, get fitted in a ski shop before you buy, cause all boots feel different.

Lange Comp 120 is king for both jibbing and normal skiing. I had both these boots and the Banshee but Comp 120 kicked ass.

that lange comp 120 is pretty stiff man....
but dont get the 1080 unless, you are weighing less than 130 or arent too strong a skier (be honest) cos they're almost a bit too soft - spend the extra and get the pro model - it has a much better liner too...
but also all this is shit if the boots dont fit so, def go try on as many as you can

I haven't used the flexons but uf they fit you I'd definitely consider them, supposed to be good. I'd also try on the 1080s, I like mine a lot

dude, that shop is at my mountain and what i was impling was to go to the shop, or go to the website and get directions to the shop, not to go to the website to check out product. THINK!
