Which one? I ski a lot of park, not that good, best trick is a 7.
I get so much shinbang, like at the end of the day, my shins are always killing me.

So which Full Tilt boot would be best for comfort, but really good and responsive in the park?

Thanks!

1. This should be in gear talk.
2. The only way to know which boot is best for you is to try both of them on to see which one feels the best on your foot.

main differences are that the booter has a crummy liner, and a softer flexing tongue, and the hot dogger has a nice liner and a slightly stiffer tongue

it comes down to getting fitted, and then what stiffness you like better

yeahbut once you get full tilts, the liner turns into a 9 millimeter glock.

that is because an all-knowing mod saw it in Ski Gabber and switched it into Gear Talk.

9.9 times out of 10 shinbang can be prevented by not skiing or landing in the back seat...

i disagree.

now if you have properly fitted/fitting boots then 9.9 times out of 10 shinbang can be prevented by not skiing or landing in the back seat

.1 out of ten times shinbang can be prevented from not skiing or landing back seat...

9.9 out of 10 times it is the fitting of the boot that causes the problem.

but basically the difference is the liner; the hotdogger has a much better liner.
