Looking for new Boots

I have had my pair of Full Tilt Jim Morrison for awhile now. I had 4 different parts break just last season. I'm looking to get something alittle more durable, maybe looking to step away from straps. I want something that's good for big mountain charging, but will also be playful and alittle forgiving. Any Ideas on what I should look at? I was told that Solomon Ghost 130's are nice, but I have also heard negative things.... Thoughts?

Should I look more towards the ghost 90's? also hiking boots could be an option.

You should probably just leave an offering on Jim Morrison's grave and see if you can break the curse.

Go see a boot fitter. Everyone's foot is a different shape and a boot will only work to it's best when it fits properly.

Dalbello has a pretty sick freeride line up this year. Got me some rampage ID's 110s. If your looking for a charging boot try the panterra series. The rampages are on the soft side of freeride l, I bought them only because the IL Moros are too stiff for me.
