I need to pick up a new pair of boots. The cheap pair I have used for the last few years have been dangerously loose. I have worked as a boot fitter so I'm not a noob to the topic, but I was wondering, what your guys preferences on boot stiffness in the park was.

Flex for park really won't be that different from any other skiing. The correct flex is one which will surport you and still allow you to drive the skis so the type of skiing you are doing does not really have much of an impact. I ski park in tge same 130 flex boots I ski the rest of the mountain so find a good boot with the correct flex for you and they will work well every where.

I love my full tilts for everything but I could see someone complain that they are too soft. You could buy the park looking ones and then get like a 10 tongue. I've also heard good things bout Nordica Ace of spades or something like that.

Get what fits, but personally i love my full tilts, and i know alot of other people do to. But go to a shop and try boots on and whatever feels good is your best bet. Don't buy expensive boots if they don't fit goof to look all pro and stuff. Just get whats feels best for you
