I was thinking about getting a new boot,  I have the tecnica vento and they are comfy but i was thinking about getting something more park oriented, and more performance.

So i have a wide foot, like really wide, i have paddle feet.

Anyways i heard the spk is wider in the toebox and fits like a skate shoe, (does anyone know what the last is in them i cant seem tooo find it).   If this is true i want to try them on at my shop, but i was also thinking new full tilts with +2mm width but i doubt that will help.

Thanks ns

i have really wide feet to and when i went to try on the spks they fit like a glove they felt so amazing on my feet. really the only way to know how they will fit is to try them on but these fit awesome if you have wide feet.

go to a shop and get boots proffessionally fit. It doesnt matter if they are "park" boots just that they fit your foot right. Go get them fitted and just tell them you have to think about buying and find a good deal for them on line or in the buy/sell thread here. but you have to get them proffesionally fit

Ya i had my last pair profesionally fit, its just that they are more of a comfort boot and i i wish they had a little bit more performance than comfort and i heard the spk were roomy so if i do get them i will get them proffesionally fit, its the only way to go.

Oh and +++K too both of you

like everyone's been saying, the SPK is the boot for you if you get them professionally fit.

If your foot is as wide as you said I think you should go for the spk cause the new FT with the +2mm will still be less wide as the spk. Also, if you want a boot that performs well don`t get the kreation get the Kaos or the Pros. I have the kaos and they are great.They perform great in the park and they also perform well in powder. Good luck !!

I have a wide foot and big calves so I decided to buy some spk's last season and they felt good after i got some ridin time in them. They were kinda a tight at first but that's a given, I'd def. recommend getting them or atleast trying them out
