whatever flex feels best, or if youre just gonna get a new tongue then whatever color you like. i got the first chair cause it has aluminum buckles which are harder to break

I have drop kicks(2012) and they are great.Hot dogger is the same boot with a different liner and a stiffer tongue.If you have the money for hot dogger,do that for sure.If not,get the drop kicks bro.

if u have a wide foot classics, narrow dropkicks also drop kicks have a softer foot board dont just choose them because they say FT on the side though guys I love my dropkicks but thats because i got them fitted for me i didnt just go in and say i want full tilts they chose listen to the bootfitter ur not smarter then him

No. Influence (102mm last) vs regular (98mm last). +/- 1mm each (recalling from the top of my head and didn't want to go check)

Be a man and get the First Chairs.

This way you have Full Tilts best boot possible, their best tongue possible for charging and all mountain, and you can always get something like a 6 or 8 for park riding.

I have the First Chairs. 10 flex is for big mountain charging and powder, and I also have an 8 for park skiing.



Make sure they fit though. You better not be buying online because you think Full Tilt is the one stop fix it boot.
