1) Wipe this notion from your mind that Full Tilts are the best/only park boot
2) Go to a bootfitter
3) Try on as many boots as you can
4) Buy whatever fits the best - even if theyre not Full Tilts
5) Ride better because you bought boots that fit your feet and not just what is cool
6) Spread this gospel

Full Tilts classic shell (twall, classic, drop kick) has been great for me, mainly because I have narrow feet, but that doesnt mean theyll fit you well. Definitely go to a bootfitter. If you have wider feet I would try out the decendants or the b&e

BJ2112Dalbello > Full Tilt

This is clearly an opinion but the best boot is the boot that fits your foot, and allows you to ski all day without pain. That being said, I have owned FT and Dalbello and I’ve found that Dalbello boots (at least the 3 piece boots) flex like shit. They felt like brick walls to me but that’s just my opinion.



OP, go to a boot fitter. There is no such thing as a “park boot,” no matter how much anyone tries to market their boots as such. I ride Full Tilts because they happen to fit my feet, but I have many friends who ski on Lange RS race boots because that’s what fits their feet. Go to a boot fitter and buy what fits your foot well!

Gotta agree with all that espeically the part about dabellos 3 piece boots flexing like shit. Hated the flex on them when I rode them. Glad I am not the only one.

Love my Twalls but go to a boot fitter. Don’t buy online if you haven’t tried them on.

I know what your getting at, but these forums aren't as active as they used to be. and they buy wants some advice.

gear talk is completely dead. so y not let this be in ski-gabber for a few days, and let the mods worry about moving it.

Because you don’t want to surpass the fatigue life and break your ankles in a serious crash just because you saved $170-370.
