I dont know if i trust the guys that said that, that is why im asking all of you

'Heath Ordway Gets Head, Do You' - Head Skis Ad
 
ive never skied them but ive talked to several people who said they are really nice boots, but i have the 1080 pro model and they are sick too

 
they guy recommended them cuz theyre so ugly and no one has bought a pair and hes desperate for a sale

those boots are really soft and comfortable, they mold to your foot and it feels like a slipper (if ski boots could feel like slippers). If you like that for jibbing then get em.

apparantly 2/3 Olympic mogul winners, and 2/3 olympic ariel winners use them, but i dont know what that has to do with jibbing

well, if they made the line boot, and this looks alot like the line boot, and the line boot was made for jibbing, wouldnt that make this boot a good jib boot?

'Heath Ordway Gets Head, Do You' - Head Skis Ad
 
depends on whether line modified it, which im sure they did

the ones i would get are the blue ones with the grey tounges, what model are those, they are last years 175 dollars

First of all Raichle has given the boots over to Kneissl, those boots above are Kneissl Flexon Pro's. Morrison rides in those boots. They are amazing boots. They are by far the lightest boots you can buy. The liner in the boots was developed by NASA for warmth and flex for astronauts. I check them out if I were you.

yeah the tounge is actually from nasa too, cause it bends like the pieces on the astrounots arms and legs

wait wat wait...so what you're saying is...kneissl is still a company? dear god! how can i get in touch?

why would they make such a high quality boot so fuckin ugly. that thing has got some real 80's influence there. I wish it didnt look like my grandpa's boots, i would buy those. and to whoever said they look like they are gonna break, i agree.

The Flexon is a tried and tested design. It's softer forward flex made it remarkably different from anything that was on the market years ago. This characteristic may help considerably, particularly for those who experience chronic shin bang.

As for it's '80's look... remember that practically every high end boot out today is based on a 30 year old 4-buckle Lange race design who's patent exclusivity ran out 5 years ago. It's just the plastics that have evolved...

 
hmmm....this post didnt help much, I tried the salomon pro models though, and they pinch my ankle, got some more recomendations for jib/park boots for me?

amyone think it would be a mistake for me to buy these tommorow for 175?

'Heath Ordway Gets Head, Do You' - Head Skis Ad
 
I don't know man. your pants are gonna cover most of your boot so it really only matters what the bottom part looks like. and how they feel. if they feel really good then do it.

Yes, buy them, if you are going to get the blue ones, theyre not that ugly. those boots are soft ass hell, and you can put them in the oven and mold them to your foot. They are perfect for 'jibbing'

why do people care sooooo much about what their boots look like--and yes if they are 175 and brand new get em. ( i don't think they're that ugly really anyway)
