Full Tilt Boot Parts

I wear a 26.5 cm FT Tom Wallisch Pro Model boot. Seasons coming to an end and screwed up the wires, obviously gonna get more but not sure what size to get. I usually just go to my local shop and they'll do it for me, but thought I'd order online. Would it be better to go 10mm shorter, recommended 265mm size, or 10mm up for middle and lower wires? Saw some really bad and really good reviews on their site regarding sizes, I need some feedback from any of you guys who have used Full Tilts for a while.

You should only change cable sizes if you want a tighter or looser fit. Otherwise, order the length recommended for your mondopoint size.

If you pull out your liner, you can adjust the cable length from the inside of the boot.

Just get the same one that came with it.

With boots tighter is better so go for shorter cables if loose or if you have skinny calfs like i do keep same cables if no heel slippage and invest or make your own boot shims to improve responsiveness of your skis.

I have fullTilt classics (28.5) and got a smaller cable for the mid and have boot shims and it has greatly improved the boots responsibility. As well if your getting shinbang the boot shims will thoroughly assassinate it

Good to know, will definitely look into boot shims.
