I'm wondering what kind of boot is best for sking pow as well as shredding thru crud at high speed. If anyone with some shop knowledge can help me out I would really appreciate it. Thanks

i would've said ProModel a year back as well but I heard they don't have the 95 flex anymore but don't quote me.

are you taking the boots into the park/pipe as well?

thanks for the feedback. One last question I have is how much would my powder skiing be affected if I went to a stiff race boot like the nordica doberman. As always any advise is appreciated

I don't think you should worry about how stiff your boot is to bust through crud. That's what your skis do. By the way-Raichle Flexons

Banshee 110s. Sweetest boot ever, next to the Concept.

dude if you want the doberman's, I got a pair of Nordica Grand Prix world cups...never used with the foam liner (unfoamed) theyre over $750 retail with the liner. It's just as high performance as the dobermans...maybe more.(theyre just the year before) I'd sell them to ya for cheap. if your interested
