Full Tilt Liners

I had a what may be considered a n00b-ish question.
I have a pair of Full Tilt Booters that I bought kind of spontaneously.

I had the liner heat-molded to my feet and the whole shabang. But I'm looking to trade them for a more of a freeski, 'stiffer' Full Tilt boot as I don't really hit the park too much. Knowing that it would be a pain to swap boots with someone that had the liner heat-molded too the question comes to this:

Can the liner from my Full Tilt fit in other Full Tilt boots and vice versa??

I believe that on different models that the toe to the heel can be very different in diameter. But I'm not positive.

Dont get new boots. If you're only looking for a stiffer flex, swap the tongues out. Its easy. But I dont think the booters have an active shock absorber pad in them. To get one of those you need the hot doggers, seths, or konflicts

The flex comes from the tongues, you can swap the tongue out easily for a stiffer one. They'll cost around 50 bucks.
They rate their flex with numbers, there are flex numers #2 #4 #6 #8 #10 with #10 being the stiffest. you currently have flex #4

With that said, I don't know if the influence tongues go any stiffer then a flex #6 , I can't seem to find any stiffer ones.

Unless it's the an influence you can buy active bootboards separately.

From the looks of the website it looked like I couldn't get a flex stiffer than a #4.
Thanks everyone, but I did know about the tongue swaps, I just didn't know all tongues would fit.
But thanks for watching out for me either way.


How much for your #8 flex?

What model do you have (it does matter), and what size is your boot. The tongues are sized, so you just can't buy anyone's and expect it to fit.

I have the Booter and they're size is 27.5. I believe the tongue is a large. I'm not sure though.

sorry, i meant what year Booter (is it the orange one, or blue). If you have the orange one, your options are limited.

Oh, yeah. My bad. I do have the newer one (the orange). By the looks of the website it looked like I can't get it as stiff as I need.
