Hey NSrs. Looking to get some good cheap boots at the end of the season with all the sales.

I'd like to hear some recommendations If you could spare some words of wisdom.  I own some Atomic tracker 100 but there not cutting it anymore.

I ski in Colorado. Looking for a boot that can do it all (park, bigmnt, powder, speed). A flex index of 100-120.

Any suggestions would be deeply appreciated.
+K to all those help as usual.

Thanks NSrs

Your best bet is going to be something that fits your foot properly. Go get fitted. After that, it'll come down to how stiff you want your boot to be.

Agreed. Also you can narrow your selection by looks, too.

By how it looks? No.

Function > Fashion.
Especially when it comes to your most important piece of equipment.

I would suggest the lange rx 130 pro or wide, if they fit you. I really like mine. But just go in a shop and try some boots.

This is the only valid answer in this thread. Everyone else is full of shit, knows jack shit, or is trying to sell you their shit.

Go see a bootfitter!
