I've tested Rossignol free XXX but it was too stiff, too much racing boot for me.
Is the teneighty boot any good?

i have the 1080 boot, personally i think they're the best boot out there, they do everything and support your legs well in all snow conditions, some pussy bitches will tell you they're to soft for steep and pow, but they aren't

^I guess I am a pussy beotch because I think the 1080 boots are too soft(I have a pair that im still riding) but I would agree there still sweet boots. I had a pair of Rossignols but thought they were too stiff. I would ride salomon 1080s but I heard that the Rossignol softboat was pretty nice for freestyle/jibbing.

I have the soft 1... mmmm, comfy + good flex... couldnt tell you about steep/pow though...

i have the ten eighty and i like them a lot. they felt so comfortable to me. i never got them in powder but i bet that i would love them. i like the 3-d buckle on them. you can make the boots fit so good with that.

i have rossignol freeride xx, they're good, nice flex, but i need new boots
i hear goood things about technica making a soft boots next year, i hear they're quite a bit softer than the normal technicas, but just as roomy and stiffer than the rossignol softs

i have the Lange Concepts and they're sooo nice, very comfy and stable, perfect for jibbing. i got mine for $130 off getboards.com, not sure if they're still there, it's such an awesome deal

Seems that the Teneighty boot is ok for me.
How does 03/04 boot differ from 02/03 boot?

I ride Free XXs and they're pretty nice. If you want something softer, just don't do up the buckles too tight and put the top strap thingy tight. it gives you a lot of forward flex for fakie landings and it's good if you have shin bang like I did.

I have Salomon Promodels. They are like teneightys, but they are a bit stiffer. They kill powder and cliffs, and they have screws you can take out to make the boot softer (just like the teneighty) if you want to ride park all day. They are sick.

dude heating your boots up that way will totally kill the battery in your car

o yeah and i was thinking about the 1080 boots too, but my cousin said that they were wicked tight on his feet, not in lenght but in width he said they were mad skinny, i have a slender foot so im thinking i will be all set
