Ok, I know there is a lot of threads on this, and I have searched but I didn't really find what I'm looking for so, heres the deal.
I'm getting new boots for the season and I have been looking into the SPK's, but I ride pow when there is and all mtn. but I'm mostly hitting kickers and rails and I'm a bit worried about the pow, all mtn. with the SPK's, since they are strict park boots and with the 0 degree stance and mad flex, so which one of the ones above will suit my needs better than the SPK's or will the SPK's be just as good as those?
I think that all will fit my foot so don't worry about that, or if one or more of them fit weird or something just say.
Can anyone help me out here?

mojos are the stiffest, also look into foils, good all mountain park boot.

yeah man, if you want an all around boot throw out the SPK and Soft boot right now. I have mojos and like them a lot, but the fit is all that matters. The Salomon pro model, now the falcon series, is the best all around boot Salomon makes if you foot fits. Go and try some things on

How stiff are the Mojos?
I want to be able to tail press butter and such fun without hurting my shin...
You can say it like this:
I want good padding for the heel and shins, and also a bit soft, for easier buttering and backseat landings...

Ok, I've checked around and I found out that Head Mojo heatfit would fit my needs quite well, and on the head site it says two flexes, one of 110-hard/stiff and 100 soft...what does it mean, one soft and one stiff model or is it adjustable?`
Please answer if you know anything

dude try boots on. if you dont want your shins to get messed up, it is almost solely going to depend on a proper fit. .

Mojos variable stiffness is a plug you take out of the back, 110 with it in, 100 with it out. And they are all heatfit pretty much now, you can just call it the Mojo. Honestly, what percent of the time are you buttering on the mountain? 1, maybe 2%? Don't make that a consideration, although I think they would be fine for buttering unless you are trying to butter PEs and race skis

Also remember that the flex rating is not universal so a 80 Head will flex differnently then an 80 salomon,

110 stiffness is pretty damn stiff, i rode boots with a stiffness of like 70 last year and they did fine everywhere...im 5'9 140, no shin bangs nuthin, this year im riding a boot that is 75 stiffness so its really soft but stiff enough for me to ski everywhere
