i skied them all last year, and they were pretty fun. i loved the way they performed in the park. even on big jumps, the soft flex just made grabs and landings aweome(btw i rode with the small wedge in the back, and no piece inside to make it stiffer). the only thing was, outside of the park, they are pretty soft. if there is a lot of slush, or crud, its pretty hard to power through it. u need to stay really over your skis, and against the front of your boots a lot to stay on your skis. its more of trying to stay alive while u bomb rather that power through. but then again, this was in like really slushy, or like grainy/sandlike snow, or bad crud only. i did go through a couple times where i didnt get shin bang, but the actual skin on my shins became rubbed raw and i had just like raw flesh exposed. i donno what in the boots caused it, but it was like a really deep carpet burn. it was weird. also, it seemed to me the lack of the buckle being close to the front of the boot allowed my foot to move upward/forward a little, and gave me some toes bang. and YES i had the right size, so dont bring that up. basically, i loved the performace of the boot, but it led to too many disconforts for my feet. hopefully they wont for you, because otherwise, they performed amazingly.
