skied last year in my spk Kaos but the stupid boot fitter at the store gave me too big of a ski boot, and after a month of owning them i started getting bad shin bang. i ski the park on the weekdays and all pow on the weekends...... i want a boot that has a pretty soft flex around 80 or 90 but that can still throw down in the park but that wont give me shin bang outside the park.
can anyone give me some suggestions or reviews on boots u have skied??? thanks

if you've got a wider foot, you could try the nordica supercharger ignitions or sparks. the ignitions have a flex of 80-90, and have a better liner than the sparks. They've got booster straps and shock eraser to help with shin bang.
if you've got a narrower foot, you could try the lange inferno's. i think the flex is around 80.

you need to go t a boot fitter that knows what they are talking about...you need to be in a boot that fits your foot and I dont think that newschoolers will help...if a boot fitter puts you in a boot that doesnt fit then you should go back to that shop and bitch at them untill they either give you your money back or give you a boot that does fit.

i just got my new boots and i gotta say the salomon foils have to be the most comfortable boots on the market. they fit tight around the foot and have a desent amount of flex. most importantly they acctually fit. iwas skiing on a pair of salomon proforma 5s last year in 29.5 mondo but i bought these new ones at 28.5 and fit perfectly these boots also can be molded to fit even better. another amazing boot that neither fit perfectly or was in my price range were the dalbello il moro boots they felt so nice on the foot and were a precise fit. the only problem is the 6hundy tag and my sicilian calfs. to think their made in italy yet they wont fit an italian guys legs bull SHIT but if u have smaller legs they rock
