Full tilts comparing to Dalbello?

So I went out to a boot fitter a week ago and he pointed me in the direction of the Dalbello Krypton Rampages. I tried them on and liked the way they fitted. Now here is the deal. I can get some full tilt conflics. And I was wondering what is the difference. I would go to a boot fitter with them in stock it is just that the nearest boot fitter with full tilts in a hour away and I dont think I can get to the fitter in time.

So my question is: How do they compare to each other?


thanks.

a couple more things about full tilt

-there going to be a little bit lighter

-liners are a tad bit better(even though there almost the same its just about the foam and hows there made)

-more versatility for full tilts(tongues, choosing forward lean,and so on)

-going to be a lil bit more skinny(depend on the boot u buy) compared to dalebello

-enterchangebull foot boards(dont know if dalebello has this)

acouple cons

-can be a little to tight in some places if u dont heet mold them

-only back heel peace can be replaced

hope this helps a little bit!

-FT lighter because less plastics are used (thinner shells), not higher quality plastics.
-comparing FT intuition to Dalbello intuition, Dalbello > FT, comparing FT intuition to stock rampage liner, you got something there.
-forward lean, canting, tongues, AND serious adjustable flex on all kryptons
-dalbello does have interchangable foot boards

-reason FT is tight in some places, is because the mold was designed (about 30 years ago) before boots were made anatomically correct. big toe, pinky toe, inside of ankle.

Let's clear this up about the liners. Dalbello uses some random liners and what they call I.D. liners. The I.D. liners are Intuition PowerWrap liners.

Full Tilt uses different types of Intuition liners. On some more expensive boots they have the PowerWraps.
