as the ski season is coming ot an end..many of the ski stores have end of season sales and i need new boots! ive been looking at the 1080 boots but ive heard they're pretty stiff and they arent good for girls..ive also been looking at the Atomic AFT:9 but those go gor $450 and i dont have the green. any boot out there good for a pretty hard skier chick thats efficient and good for park and powder?

They are a little soft, but if you latch them up tight enough for some intense carving I don't have any problems with the stiffness..

They are great plenty stiff for carving and soft enough for landing your shit

There fine for girls! The only difference that a womans boot has from a mens is that its usually lower cut. Reason being that a womans calf is always farther doen the leg than a mens. I have fit a ton of women in mens boots, with no complaints. Just try them on!!!

I thought women would need a softer boot? I know their skis are supposed to be softer. Anyhow I ski them everywhere in CO and they rip.
