Exactly. For the type of skiing you do, the SPK line just wont make the cut. You will need a slightly stiffer, wider boot that those. Also, the SPK boots only work with Salomon bindings, so if your not using the new STH 12 or STH 16's, you will need to get some or get different boots.

As Steven said, A pair of race boots will work much better with the added stiffness, but if you can find a pair of older rear-entry boots, you will find the flex much more gradual and it will be stiff enough for your kind of skiing.

Also with your size and weight there is no way you want that boot. Definitely look for something race stock or if your lucky some rear entry, I love mine.
