I'm lookin at ordering the Seth Pro FTs pretty soon but the flex is super stiff so i was looking where i can get softer tongues from, probs a 6 since they arent advertised on their own site.

I searchbarred and found nothing useful

+k for a legit answer

peace x

Just use the 10s =).   They aren't going to be the stiffest boot out there by any means, they will work.

If you buy the seths and put in a 6 flex you'd be spending $150 more for a boot that performs the same as the high fives... and everyone is going to have the booters not hot doggers anyways (not that it matters what everyone else has)

130 Lange, but softer than 120 Salomon and 120 Rossi(because Langes have a low flex point that makes them seem softer than the scale they use implies compared to Solly/Rossi/Technica.).  That's where I would put it(based on flexing the #9 and adding a bit more stiffness).
