Fargo's in the park - Snowboarding Forum

Found a sick deal on some vans fargos and was wondering how they would work in the park. I ride about half in the park and half on groomers. I heard they are sorta stiff and was wondering if anyone else had some thoughts

I owned 4 pairs of Fargo's and rocked them in the park more like 80% of the time. They're just a supportive boot. Granted last years were ass and had issues with super creasing.

i do about 40% park with the fargos and love them. i have the 08's though and heard the newer ones are a little crappier as far as quality. but i haven't tried the new ones firsthand though.

boots are not specific to any type of riding, its about preferences, you should be able to ride park in any boots but you may prefer some over the others.
