Replying to Spk Pro Model: does it handle an all mtn assault?

Matty_C:

Lets be clear on this: I'm not asking for reccommendations or advice, so no GO TO A BOOTFITTER rants please!

It's got to the stage where I'll politely be demanding new boots from that fat, lazy motherfucker with shit facial hair, stupid red furry outerwear and a disturbing fetish for horny deer that only works one night a year...

OBVIOUSLY I will base my choice on the informed advice of a well trained bootfitter, but that's not to say I can't do some research prior to my covert, late night assault of the ski shop... 

My query is this: I understand Spk Pro Models are stiffer than their unpimped and therefore significantly less cool, grey counterparts, but how much stiffer? What kinda flex index are we talkin here? I'm looking for something in the 90-100 flex range, 110 at a push for attacking the whole mountain like a fat kid on a cupcake: is the SPK Pro model worth considering?

Thank you for your time :]
