Im looking to get new ski boots this season. I mostly ride park but also glades and make my own trails. What boot would be good for me?

unless you're looking to spend a lot of money on a boot with park-specific features (shock absorption, rubber toe in SPKs), I would just go with whatever fits. Go to your local bootfitter and find out

the one that fits. finding the right boot for you depends on several variables, height weight ability, style of skiing, THE BOOT ACTUALLY FITTING YOUR FOOT CORRECTLY. these questions cannot be answered over the internet by the general populous of newschoolers. so i implore you, please go see your nearest qualified boot fitter
that is all,

These people will never learn, go to a bootfitter, its why we exist, because u need a professional to help u find the correct fit in a ski boot, as that is the most important thing. Every company makes a boot that can handle any typs of skiing, its all about flex index, forward lean and FIT

This. I can't believe there are still other boots out on the market, when Full Tilts are clearly superior in all aspects.

Full Tilt should just buy out all the other companies and just mass produce Full Tilts.  That would be the best thing for the ski industry imo.
