Not really sure what boots I should try and cop this year, I'm looking for a pretty stiff park boot that can handle all mountain and touring conditions pretty well too, not really sure if such a boot exists but help me out NS!

you could get full tilts and a couple different toung's a stiff one like a 10 flex for all mountain and like a 6 or 4 for skiing park. each toung is 50 dollars and im sure you could find a pair here on ns. i dont know how these would do touring becasue i havent done much of it but they are overalll sick boots!

I have been pretty stoked on the FT First Chair. I am a bit heavier (210) and the 10 stiffness tongue really helps with control. Another thing I'm stoked on is the Intuition liners. They are soooo comfy.

Bootfitter is your best option. Go to your nearest shop and explain what you have said in your post and they will fit you with a boot which will fit your needs and fit you for the shape of your foot.

Go to a bootfitter and get something in the 110 to 130 flex range, it's all about what fits. I've tried all the "top of the line" boots from tecnica, rossi, lange and they are all solid, narrowish obviously.

Yup, a bootfitter is what you need. I went the other day and came home with something completely different than what I thought I needed and was finding online, but that will be perfect for what I ski.
