I am torn between what boot to get for this season. I broke my leg last year, so i want to make sure i get a boot that is going to have enough support, but still flexy enough to lap the park. I am trying to decide between the

1) Full Tilt Wallisch

2) Full Tilt Morrison.

Any recommendation would be much appreciated!!!

to my knowledge they are pretty much the same boot but the Morrison comes with a stiffer flex plate. I have the 2012 Morrisons and Im not a fan, almost too much flex. I also am not a fan of the cable buckle system, one buckle broke on me within 3 days. either way, like they said, make sure you have it fitted

Boots are the most subjective part of your quiver. It's not also about getting a boot that fits, but then getting foot beds and fixing other parts of the boots like the degree your leg sits at. And fixing the flex to your liking. If you go to a good boot fitter then he/she should be able to create a perfect fit for you. Shit you might even find that a race boot is best for you.

When getting boots fitted, throw out any preconceived notions about what boots will make you ski better. Yes full tilts will give you shin bang if they don't fit you.

All full tilts have intuition liners that are hear mold able, to a certain extent, every liner is.

But definately go to a boot fitter, dont get the boot that tom wallisch rides BECUASE you want to have godlike steez. Just get the boots that fit your style of skiing.

I think Intuition too solid for my shin, why? I do not understand how it can save you from shinbang. Already in the process of fitting, I began to fear for the shin. since it was quite firmly.
I have never skied before, and while I was not able to definitively choose a boots.
I tried: dalbello rampage 14/15, boss 12/14, spk 85, FT High Five 12/13, First Chair 13/14, B&E 13/14, Seth Morrison 13/14.
I think I will approach IL Moro, but I have not yet try) and dalbello heavy(

Non of those boots are suitable for a beginer really. I would suggest going to a fitter an have them suggest a boot which will not fit and be a good performance level. Don't try to select boots yourself try to go in with a totally open mind and see how the boots feel. To be honest a good fitter shoul really just select the best boot for you.

Looking to buy a pair of 2013 full tilt booter online for $250. They have never been used but the liners have already been heat molded. Curious to what I can do about that? Would I be able to take them to a local shop and get new liners? Any ideas are appreciated since I am new to this
