How to Ollie/Nollie/Butter (with soft boots)

[Miomo]

I'll keep it simple. I have FT Booters, and I want to get some flex out of my ski. I'm pretty sure I know how to butter. My boots just flex sooo much. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Well how much you can butter is really reliant on how strong you are and how flexy your skis are. If you think your boots flex too much, get some stiffer tongues. What skis have you got? I used to have a hard time on stiffer skis, then i got al dentes ad i could butter all ovee the place.

Atomic Infamous. The tongue is a 6.

i have 6 tongues as-well and i can get a decent butter going. Gotta do up those boots tight to help reduce the flex a bit? Also weight and skis?

The thing is, throughout the day, my boots loosen. I tighten them as far as they can go at the shin at the start of the day.

Do you do the power strap at the top up tight? I have my FT's at full on every buckle aha. You need some speed and commitment to get right ive the tips of the skis. Its also hard to make your skis flex as much as lets say max hill. That comes with super soft skis and lots of practice, for the average day butter even a little flex is fine

Yeah, I pretty much pull the strap as tight as it can go. Afterbangs are pretty stiff, though. I had those before and I couldn't really get anything out of them.
