There is a little knob thingy at the back where you can turn it so its in one of the three modes. The modes are Ski Hard, Ski Soft, and Walk. I was wondering which mode would be best for park skiing?. Thanks for the help.

you will probly want the flex, try it out in the different settings and figure what one you like best

Not walk, that kid nof just releases the cuff, it does not make it softer but only aloows  the cuff to swing back a little more, And always put the boot on with it in the stiffist setting.

I dunno, it was complete luck. My mom and I were just going around to local ski shops looking for all the stuff thats on sale and 07 stuff..and we made one last stop at a select sports ski shop, and we asked if I could try on some park boots. He brought out a couple and i tried these on, both the newer 07 model and last years 06 model (in picture)...and the 06 model just happened to be 99.99, and there regualar price is 250. I guess i just lucked out

do these have the same thing as the kryptons? the changable tounge. i took rampages and put in the pro tounge for a stiffer foreward flex.
