So I need some help for mye gear the coming season:
First
I need some new boots, i have the dabello rampage, which i really like, but the thoe box is to small. My lokal shop has the Dalbello Blender, i this a good choice if they fit, do they work good for park, and som pow.?


Second!
I just got some new skis, moment reno rockers, i also bought the Fks 140, if i get new boots this season, is it possible to move the binding, without making new holes?


Thank you +K

1) You can really use any boot in any situation. Given the foot board or the tongue might be stiff but they can work. I wore race boots for 2 years skiing park and pow and it was fine. Thats not to say they will be just as fun as an ace of spades or hot dogger but they should be fine. Also have you looked at the ll moros?

2) Yes. Bindings can be adjusted (thats how they make sure the boots fit tightly in the binding). This being said they can only be adjusted to a certain amount so as long as they aren't at the extreme ends there should be room to fit a slightly bigger boot in.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe you can adjust the pivot bindings? They don't have the slide that other heelpieces have.

The FKS can be adjusted a very small amount, 2 or 3mm max. Most cases you are better off remounting it.

The dalbello krypton series can be stretched and ground down more than most boots, because the shells are extra thick. Does your shop do custom bootwork?
