I got the new 2015 full tilt boots and i find them really soft. Does anyone else have this problem? Whats the actual flex? Because full tilt calls it a medium but what flex is it? Thanks.

Welcome to ns, this type of question would go in the gear talk section,
But yes they are very soft, they're 4/10 on the full tilt flex scale, you can buy stiffer tongues on their website,

I'm just going to clarify since this can be confusing for some. Since full tilt uses their own out of 10 flex ratio as apposed to the universal number index a 4 flex is about 70 80 flex in other boots. If you have any other questions about boots or what flex would be best for you just post in gear talk

I tried a pair of these on at a ski shop about a week or two ago. They felt super flexy. They guy told me they were about a 5 flex if I'm not mistaken.
