I have Salomon Impact 8 boots. They may only be 90 flex but they do me just fine. I had a pair of Atomic M Tech which were 110 flex and I think they were a bit too good for my standard at the time. When the time comes to get a new pair, I may got higher.

Never argue with a good boot fitter... apparently. The Full Tilts come with 2 different tongues which change the stiffness... depending on what one they use they can be pretty soft or really quite stiff.
Yeh, I am just trying to fit in with the cool crowd. :wink:
that is cool, I didn't know you got two tongues, I know some of the Scarpa free-tour boots have two for the same reason and people swap around garmont ones to get more stiffness
Ise you`ve just jogged my memory,I know the Tilts reminded me of some boots i saw years ago.Raichle flexon are the one`s, I thought they were weird looking back then when every one else was wearing Lange.

]excellent, that's exactly what I wanted to know :D what the young, fast crowd were wearing :D that's going to be pretty stiff. Some of the hot shots around here are wearing those Full Tilt reborn flexons which are pretty stiff, I reckon I must have the floppiest boots in the valley :lol:

I think the tongues are stiffness maybe 1-9? Not sure what is widely available though.

No real experience of proper boots as these are what I have progressed with over the last 2 years...

Really, I still cant get my head round them as they are not your
conventional looking boot.But i would be interested to know how they perform as to form some sort of comparison with the more conventional boot.

I've never owned a pair. To me, it was probably an amazing boot for the time but that time's gone now, there must be better stuff around.
