what freestyle boots would you recommend? or just a real comfy boot, mostly an all around boot.

let me know, i'm sure i probably sound dumb but oh well...

i've been trying to find some salomon 1080's from last year, but i can't find any on ebay, i'm looking to spend around 300.

THANKS!

i picked up a pair of nordica beast 10s, for 350... def nice boots(for wide'ish feet). soft enough for park and stiff enough for whatever else.. but i'm also 160lbs @ 5'10" so yea.. if your bigger than that maybe go with the beast 12s

okay i won't buy them online unless i've previously tried them on, and that's what i'm planning on doing, i wouldn't want to buy boots i've never tried on, but thanks for the information, i really do appreciate it.

that's a good point about the local shops. i'm in college, so i'm looking for the best deal. if i could spend the extra money i would, but i'm trying to save to buy a ring to get engaged.

I would recommend you the Rossignol Soft Boots, but only if your gonna be skiing the park a whole lot. If youre more of an all around skier, then get infos about the Rossis Elite Bandit Carbon... thats what I ski on right now. Their stiff enough for freeriding or plain badass carving action, but they also are the shit as far as hiking and jumping.

I tried on the rampage today and was really excited but the boot is just too narrow for my foot, but if my foot would have fit then they would definately be my next pair of boots.
