dalbello voodo or blender is great for a wide foot. you really just need to go to a bootfitter and try a bunch on.

booters are wide if you're a park rat kinda guy. I have the blenders as mentioned above and they are great. It's really about what fits your foot though go to a bootfitter

Nordica ace of spades, super comfy boot and also has a progressive flex like FT or dalbello
^^102mm last

ace of spades is the stiffest of nordica's park line, 100-120 flex, the other boots are basically the same mold but softer (i think) and different paintjob/accessories ....

The booter is wide but don't buy a boot because of the brand name

i have been in dalbello since i can remember and love them, i just moved up from a voodo to a krypton rampage and i tried on hotdoggers and i loved how light they were but i have a little bit of a wider foot so it was a little snug probably would have chhanged with molding. one thing i didnt like about them is how everybody has them and everyone likes them, the only advantage they have over anyone else is the weight and the one kid i ski with his cables keep breaking.

nordicas new boots are so sick! i like the design. i have this years kaos and the first thing i'm going to point out is comfort. definately the most comfortable boot i have ever warn. i did get them fitted so i'll have to join everyone else in saying the best boot is the boot that fits you.
