Ok so I was checkin out this vid from SIA and noticed somethin.  If you pause it at :16 you will see a boot right next to the booter thats black and white with buckles.  At first I thought it was the olympic boot but I'm not so sure.  Anyone have any idea?  Is it a prototype freeride boot?

yeah I've tried to like it.  I really have.  But that thing looks like it fell outta someones anus.  Could be the best boot in the world but I cant get over how horrendous it looks.  I wasn't a big fan of last years green either but it was tolerable to look at.  This years jus isn't sexy at all.

in fact Mr_pretzel I've got a new quote for your profile.....

The way I see full tilt is like this, would you marry a 400lb gorilla lookin chick just because she had the best feelin pussy you ever been in?  The answer is no.

I was actually kickin around the idea of gettin next yrs booter and gettin a stiffer toungue.  That boot looks decent.  Ever heard of anyone tryin to turn a booter into a stiffer freeride boot?

Well the booters have a different fit. So if the konflicts fit nice the booters wont.

Full tilts have totally interchangeable parts so you can make any boot softer or stiffer by changing the tongues.

yeah the booters shell is totally different too right?....like soft wise?.....but your right, the konflicts do feel good and the booters comfy in the store but I could see that wider toe box packin out real quick and gettin sloppy. at least last years were like that.
