4 buckle park boot?

[DiscoDean]

Hey looking to buying some fulltilts, the only thing im not sure about is the cable system. I prefer the buckles.. Is there any boot out there that is similar to a full tilt with a four buckle system? any other suggestions for a park/allmountain boot would be great too! thanks

head vector series.

I recommend either the 120 or the LTD...the spineflex buckles make a huge difference.

Dalbello best place to start, (fit dependant) Similar idea with the 3 piece design but proper metal buckles and better quality in general. No doubt people will bang on about the intuition liner but you can get that in the high end Dalbellos too.

agreed.

the vector series is a 103mm last, as is the blender and voodoo from dalbello.

the krypton series is a 98mm last. Head has the raptor project as the only park boot in a 98 last, but it fits and rides like a softer race boot, so I would assume thats not what your looking for.

another boot that came to mind is the nordica ace of spades.

and if you like your boots wider than the grand canyon and softer than jello then you can always go salomon.

nordica's ace of spades and double six are 100mm last

salomon doesn't list their last size

so get sized!

Dalbellos will be normal buckles on top and bottom but the third heel buckle is a cable style closure.

Great boots though and with the shell design, they are very friendly to bootfitters.

did you say 120 as in 120 flex?...

im guessing not, but 120 is raceboot flex

 

[Tablespoon]

And?

Stiff boots are awesome. 80 ish flex boots suck.

 

[treymillionaire]

get fitted in some Dalbellos Kryptons brooo, best boot out there

 

[DannyKid]

Man speaks the truth!

 

[DannyKid]

True dat, but using a proper metal buckle to close instead of FTs sliding ratchet creation.

Im in 100 flex normal.

120 is my race boot.

salomon ghosts aren't a race boot.

 

[_Jesus_]

what makes you think I have Salomon ghosts?...

 

[Pipe_Munky]

120 in race boots? pretty soft race boots imo.

my training/cold weather boots are 130 and my warm weather boots are 150

 

[_Jesus_]

eh, very true... but 150 is just much to stiff for me

head has a new line of freeski boots based on the raptor, but with more padding,... so basically a padded up, flex downed race boot!

 

[onenerdykid]

totally depends on your foot shape, your ankle flexibility, how much you weight, and what flex you are coming out of but... you can check out the Atomic Volt if you have a narrower foot.

98mm last, 110 flex, moldable liner, rubber boot board, replaceable soles. $499 in the US
