I like my rosi soft 3s. They took a couple months to really wear in, they were kinda uncomfortable before that but now they feel great its like wearing winter boots.

Get the boot tht fit's your foot, dont buy online . GO to a shop get measured and get ot done right. just get the most freeride specific boot that fit's your foot.

Just dip your dong in paint and smack your helmet with it.

i recommend salomon x-waves. they are the exact same boot as the 1080, but the 1080 supposedly has a shock absorbing sole. i feel no difference. the x-wave has a much better liner in it.

rossi soft 3. I love them, they are the best park boot and super comfy. They are good out side the park but are not as stable as a hard boot at high speeds. They still rip though. There is a 0% chance of shinbang with them. I highly reccomend them.

make sure you get boots fitted correctly. when you have boots that are even a little too big, like me, you lose a shit load of control. going through pow you need as much as possible and you lose it with loose boot. when my skis go wack on occasion my foot moves hella in my boot and i lose control.

yeah, fit makes a HUGE differnece in comfort and conrtol. but i have dalbello zx supersports, and lie um. but your best bet for a jib boot is to go with a 3 peice shell style boot. the raichle flexon (oldschool freeride boot) was and still is considered one of the best boots ever made. while that is a little outdated (raichle unfortunatly went out of business a few years ago, dalbello bought the pattents. a 3 peice shell gets all of its flex properties from a third chunk of plastich in front of the buckles, hence the name 3 peice. this creates a boot wiith HUGE amounts of soft, progressive flex, but is also very ridgid torsionally. some other boots like this: Dalbello Z series, CRX (older model, discontiuned last year, really nice), line transfers, and the new dalbello kryptons. look into um, three peice shells are the shit.

dont buy flexons, get 1080s. unless u like a soft flex that gives a shitload for bumps but i coudlnt take it and we all kno morrison and kreitler used the stiff custom tongues on those not the standard boot.

I have Lange CRL 80 FRs, and I love them. They are pretty soft, but I only weigh 150lbs. They are my first pair of non-shit boots, and I was amazed at how well the shock absorber and the gel tongue cut down on foot pain. If you're a little on the lighter side, I would recommend them. If you're heavier, look into the Lange 120 or 100 Comp FRs. They are basically racing boots that have been customized for freeriding.
