So I need help between buying Salomon Pro model or Full tilt boots. both are at the same price range so that's not a problem, but which ones are better? I want just opinions about those boots, nothing else.

Looks like you need to go to a boot fitter.
It'll be the only place that can help you decide which is better for your foot.

who knows, someone needs to come up with a standard for this. like how much force is required to flex it a certain distance. that probably wouldn't work so you'd probably have to use some intrinsic property of the plastic. which still might not work cause i take it two tongues made of the same stuff with different shapes or cuffs will be different too.
