full tilt booter/hotdogger/first chair are all good for the park and everything else. The first chair is more all mountain and booter is softer flex than hot dogger.

check out the alpina free 540.  it is the only boot i know about with actual range of motion.  i got a pair last year through my local shop (the manager there is one of the designers of the boot).  The boot literally has a hinge motion rather than a flex motion, which really helps for locking on rails, but you can also lock it for all mtn. skiing.  it's a huge difference in feel to anything i've tried or seen.  you have all these guys like asian allen who are v-cutting their cuffs and cutting them lower to get more freedom with ankle flex, but this incorporates range of motion without compromising support.  its a HUGE step in the right direction, and they feel sooo nice too!!!!!
