the boot which fits you best after going to see a boot fitter and explaining how you intend to ski and they have checked which boot fits the shape of your foot. but seriously a boot which fits correctly will reduce the chances of you getting shin bang and if you explain what kind of skiing you want to do in your boots the fitter will find something with the right flex even if its not a "park" boot.

wow, you noobs are crazy!


you think you need a full tilt for park and are deciding what one to get before you have ever tried one on to see if it fits!

you would much rather have a non-park specific boot that fits well then a full tilt that doesnt!!!


GO TO A BOOTFITTER!!!!

its times like this when i think fulltilt does a great job promoting and advertising their product. I mean these kids have never seen the boots in real life and they are willing to drop 450 on it

If the boot has been skied in chances are the liner will have started breaking down. You cant unfortunatly remould a liner back to new condition. Its never ever a good idea to get boots second hand, the liners will be worn and shaped to sombody elses foot, if they had work done to the boots, you may well need to pay a bootfitter to take the streches or punches out of the boot, and possible then need to get work done to comadate your foot. All in together that $150 boot could cocst you allot more. $200 for liners and up to $50-100 to get them unfitted then fit to your foot. At that price you will infact be better off getting a new boot from a fitter who will not charge you for any work if you buy the boot off him.

Threads like this should just be deleted, or a mod should be the only one who can post refering these kids to the sticky on boots. Its kinda crazy how so many people think that they can only use a park boot for park, and they wanna be like some pro, so they wanna get fulltilts. The old raichle boot that all u fucks want so bad was a high end race style boot to begin with, which means u all wanna be like 80's club racers, so put that in ur pipe and smoke it

Bootfitter!!!! By the way, no full tilt is going to make you ski like will and andy. There are other boots that will not give you shin bang and help with nose presses, do some research. Please just get properly fitted

shut the fuck up! did you not read what every other non-noob wrote? dont get a boot just because its a full tilt. you cant just decide what boot you are gonna get before you try on both. the booter and hotdogger have very different fits. and if neither fit, go find one that does even if its not park specific!

i really hate these threads full of noobs set on getting full tilts before trying one on!
