Ok so I was thinking either

Technica Agents

Technica Dragons

Salomon SPK

or another, any ideas

preferably looking for around 100 flex boot
 
you want freestyle boots?

ok, take out the dragons. The Agents and the Dragons are the same boot (same mold, literally the same boot), but the dragon has a stiffer foot board and less dampening stuff, the agent has more shock absorbing crap in it, making it more freestyle oriented.

personally, i love my agent 110's. i can ski fucking everything in them.

i've tried on some SPKs and i felt very limited to the park and nothing to intense.
 
Ok so you would recommend the agents, are they like more versatile cause i like taking runs and but also hitting up the park. Are the SPKs just park oriented?
 
I work in a shop and skied the Agent 110's for just over a season. I found that they had a very inconsistent flex pattern in them and wound up having having to get rid of them due to shin bang. I moved to Dalbello Krypton Pro w/ intuition liner and have never been so stoked on a pair of boots. They were tight at first, but the liner packed out where I needed it to and not where I didn't need it to. They also have some of the best heel retention ever as well as the most consistent flex pattern I have ever felt. I would highly recommend checking out any of the Dalbello Krypton Series boots!
 
Ok well I got shin bang with my boots this year and I don't want that again but I heard the agents were good so are you saying that those dabellos are better
 
Spk's.... I have a pretty wide foot and it's the most comftorable boot ever. No shin or toe bang at all after 5 straight days of skiing
 
I work for a shop and i have absolutely no problems with my agent 110s. are you sure you got the right size?

the only complaint was that they have a sort of narrow toe box (but i also have a clubbed foot so my toes are wider than my heel) and i got same bad toe bang at first, but i just brought them in and blew the toe out a millimeter or two and they are perfect now. and there is no shin bang at all.

and yes, they are more versatile than spks
 
Definitely get fitted, but I just got spks this year and I love them. If they’re the right boots for you, then I guarantee you wont be disappointed
 
^if he's looking at these three boots i'm assuming he knows the shape of his foot, because they all fit just about the same. i got agent 110's toward the end of this season but the few times that i got to ski them they were great. i got a bit of toe bang the very first day but after that they packed out really well. also (assuming you know that these boots fit you) i'd suggest waiting for the agents to come up on tramdock. that's what i did and it was an amazing deal.
