Stiff or soft boot

[Ranchculture]

Definitely already a thread somewhere but I blew out my roxa’s and bought a new pair of heads to try them out yesterday, and when I was in the shop the guy fitting seemed to understand that I wanted a stiffer boot but kept pointing me towards full tilts because they’re “park specific”. My question is do y’all like stiffer boots for park or loose? I ride a 130 currently

Stiff Tecnica 130s with a bolt taken out of the heel so more like a 120. They do well but it’s really annoying how stiff they are in the cold versus how soft in the heat. I guess that’s any boot though

If the guy at the shop said they are “more park oriented” you need a new shop. Get the boot that fits you foot and your abilities.

Raaaaaaaaanch, buy the boot that fits your foot. I ride a 130 regardless of where I’m skiing because it’s personal preference. I know you like your park skis stiff so you don’t want something too soft so that you have response and drive

Doesn’t matter if you want stiffer, the flexiest full tilt you can find fixes all your problems ?

Anyone selling you a boot that's "park-specific" is completely talking out their ass. The best boot for park, or any other discipline, is the boot that fits your foot, in the flex that you need.
