Full Tilt Drop Kicks

Just wanted to know if anybody else likes them. I was also wondering how good they would be as an all mountain boot along with the park skiing (maybe a few runs in the pow) if i would add an 8 flex tongue?
Any feedback is much appreciated!

i ride drop kick s super nice in the park and if you swapped out the tongue recon would be really nice in the pow as well but a tongue change you be necessary in my opinion. however full tilts only fit really thin feet so go to a boot fitter and try them on. dont buy them just beacuse u like how they look.

my brother has them, there a good bot, i would invest in a better liner and a little stiffer unless your skiing ALL park, not as much an all mountain boot, there very felxable, very comfy (if the are properly fitted)


DONT GET THEM UNLESS THERE PROPERLY FITTED AT A SKI SHOP! if you dont they may not fit your feet and the will be bad

This really all comes down to personal preference. I have a #10 tongue on mine, which I use all over the mountain (including in the park) but not everyone would want that. If you end up getting them (assuming they fit properly...make sure of that) ride them for a bit, if you decide you need a stiffer tongue, you can get one, if you don't need one, then you didn't waste your money on one.

They are amazing for me, last year I had some ancient nordica racing boots with almost 0 flex but when I tried on the drop-kicks in the shop, my feet had an orgasm. Get them if they fit you GO TO A BOOTFITTER, to try them on and get them heat molded

I love the #6 flex on the Hot Doggers (last years model)! They pretty much take you anywhere. From park over groomers to off-piste. Haven't tried serious pow skiing, but I guess you'd be alright with the 6 flex.
I have tried last years booters as well, and I found a #4 flex to be very soft. It's all a matter of preference.
