I've been looking at some rossignol boots that look sick but I havent heard of many people with rossi boots.  Does anyone know how they fit and what their flex are and such?  Thanks

102 last = wide.


I wouldn't trust them... They just seem to be piggy backing the SPKs. Kreations are cheaper and probably more reliable. And I've never really liked rossi boots. just my 2 cents.

I've got the 110 sas senor and I love it. FS 1 its has a wide tox box, my foot is a hair on the wide side and they fit me great, so unless you have a pretty wide foot I might look elsewhere.

I also have a pair of sas 110s. Best boots I've ever owned. Good quality and the white is sick. My foot is fairly narrow and so at 100 last they are quite comfy. I'm partial to 4 buckle boots and think that park rat boots are lame and I love the park.

rossi has quite a few different lasts.
I have never put my foot in one of their Freestyle boots,
but I have put my foot in the sensor series, the SAS 120/B-Squad 130, and the exalt or whatever its called.
Overall the sensor series fits pretty well, good medium fit to it, with plenty of navicular room. calf seems to work with most people too.
The SAS 120/B-Squad 130 fit big for a plug boot but still obviously tighter then the sensor series. I thought they were pretty comfortable for a plug boot. Same Shell as the Lange Banshee.
The Exalt is just huge.

they aren't piggy backing the spk's at all... the design on the sas boots i have seen is just like full tilts three  piece design, rossi sas boots look pretty sick

They aren't like the full tilts. The full tilts put more emphasis on the liners and tightening the boot by overlapping and making sure there arent any gaps between the boot and your leg. The way the clamps on these look like its just like a regular two buckle boot... and i dont even see a power strap. I haven't tried these boots on, so I could just be bullshitting all of this, but the construction just looks as simple as an spk.

If you want something like full tilts, get dalbellos.. those also follow the old raichle mold, with a little bit of variation. And rossi is going down the drain...
