Go to a boot fitter. I didn't and it was a huge mistake. I bought salomon spk and realized they are way to wide for me about halfway through the season. So please, go to a shoot fitter.
Go to a fitter. I find full tilts uncomfortable because I have a wide foot, and I ended up with nordica superchargers. They are great because they fit properly
i had some salo. spk this year but they hurt my shins. now my shins are very sensitive..i went to my local ski shop and a guy told me i was best with dalbellos but i actually felt better in full tilt booters.
go with what the tech said. its his job to find the best possible boot for your feet. they have been doing it for god knows how long and have seen 1000's of kids like you and can tell which boot you need, you created a thread looking for information on which boot to get. who is in the better place to make a decision as to which boot to get?(rhetorical, bootfitter obviously) also a new boot which feels comfortable on your foot isnt the right fit. a new boot should be a tight,snug fit (without pressure points), almost uncomfortable as its going to pack out over the next while of wearing it. also dont be a dick and get fitted and not buy the boots in the shop as the fitter has gone through the hard work of finding you a boot at least pay his wage by buying the boots he fitted you.
You got to try different boots because people got different feet's. One boot could fit perfect for one person but it could terrible for another. For example it is many of my friends uses the Salomon boots but when I was going to buy new boots I tried a lot of different Salomon boots but non of them did fit my foot so I ended up with buying the fulltilt booter who I am very satistfied with.
