Doubt it but even if they do, the only ones chirping are the ones self conscious about their own skiing ability

This x100

No one cares what you look like or do on the mountain, as long as you don't play music through your Bluetooth speaker that you've got strapped to your backpack.

Heckling from the lift or top of the park.

some douche chirped me for breaking my binding under the lift and I was like ??? How could that have been avoided? Sorry for skiing too hard ig
 
tbh I view full tilts as a beginner boot, unless you clearly shred I'm gonna assume you're a just learning. Nothing wrong with that! They're easy to put on and look cool so of course people just coming to the sport love them.
 
Really. You gonna judge boots? Gear in general? Seems like a waste of ones energy.

not judging just sharing my view, if someone comes skiing down on rental gear I assume it's one of their first times skiing, I know thats an extreme example but still. Seems like lots of people start out on full tilts but then switch to "less cool" or "non-freestyle" boost that fit them much better. Kinda the same thing with line skis, lots of people start out on them but then switch to other brands once they figure out what type of ski they like.

Do you wear arcteryx? Helly Hansen? Do your touring boots cost more than my kidneys and weigh less than a pencil? Does your piss turn water into wine?

look all I'm saying is that I've seen a lot of dudes start out on FT when they get into park skiing and then switch to a different, better fitting boot after a couple seasons, myself included. If full tilts fit you then thats great. Bode Miller skis on full tilts, obviously there are good skiers that ride them. That still doesn't change my view that they are more common among park skiers who are just getting into it and didn't know about boot fitting and chose whatever boot was most comfortable and looked coolest
 
full tilts are just boots tf

they're not specialized for people who need to throw triple cork 14s

if a ft works the best for your foot then use it
 
If I can own vishnus, pivots and full tilts and ride at park city I’m pretty sure you’re fine wearing full tilts
 
That makes sense. I'm sorry if implied you were dicks. I guess it is kinda of a thing. Like. I Wana try vishnus. But alas. I am not the best at rails. I feel like I'd get some hate.

topsheet damage imo is actually cool as long as it doesn't fuck with ski strength. My bro had arv 106 armadas and the topsheet damage was insane. looked cool. meant he could rip. haha

Definitely get the sentiment of this, I mean I got my full tilts and first skis (Rossignol S3's) off a snowboarder friend who wanted to try skiing. The full tilts didn't fit him well and they seemed to fit me perfect. It was my first setup coming off of rentals. By most accounts I would be regretting getting those boots years later and getting boots that fit me better. Except I went to a boot fitter years later and asked him about Dalbellos etc and he told me that my full tilts fit me perfect and that my feet weren't a good fit for Kryptons.

I guess I'm the exception to the rule here, though I do think it's whack af to judge someone based on their legit non-rental gear. Although... do kinda judge people on 160cm rossignol experiences or something lol just not ever based on their boots. Honestly I see another dude with full tilts and we end up talking on the chair lift on how much we like our full tilts lol.

that's sick! Nothing wrong with FTs

my jimmies remain un-rustled, I was actually relating to the fact I was a beginner when I first got into my FT's. Not even a beginner park skier just a jerry ass beginner lol. Though my friend, a snowboarder, was going for beginner park skier for sure. So the point remains.

And like you said, popular if you are just getting into park skiing. I think whoever buys FTs is usually into skiing... for the skiing. And if someone is into skiing for the skiing I would never judge them honestly. On the other hand if you get heated boots cus you're afraid your toesies will get a wittle cold pizza-ing down that green run like three times before you take an instagram photo shoot then hit the lodge, then yeah I'm gonna judge you lol.

Yes thank you. People that talk about topsheet damage should be exiled

This kid came into the shop and tried seeing about getting his revolts warrantied because the top sheets got all torn up along the waist of the ski from clacking his skis together.
