I was so excited when I got to Whistler last winter because I finally got my hands on the first pair of Full Tilts I had ever seen...I tried them on, and they fit terribly. I was upset, but I understood that your ski boots are your most important pieces of equipment, so I gave up on FTs and looked elsewhere. I now have a pair of SPKs that fit like a glove. No pressure points to speak of. You've just got to have a head on your shoulders, to be able to say, "Fuck, it sucks that these Hot Doggers don't fit, but them's the breaks. Cross those off my list." It's like the guy in the store said to me when I tried them on: "The boot can be the most technologically advanced thing in the world, but if they don't fit, none of that is doing you any good."
