Better Ski Boots

OK, I think we, as skiers who all have friends who snowboard, know of one very obvious disadvantage of skiing. The boots. Don't get me wrong, when they're strapped to a ski, the things are a comfort explosion (unless they're too tight, the you get shin splints), but the problem is hiking up 20 yards trying to get a trick on a box over and over again. has anyone ever heard, seen, or even own a pair of ski boots that can compare to the comfort of a snowboard boot? If not, then Full Tilt should use all the F-ING money they're getting from the gay ass "Get Full Tilt" NS shirts and come up with one!
