freestyles are about as low-end as they come and are really on par with bargain bin boots such as lamar boots

if you're going on the cheaper end of the scale, at least get into some k2 or ride boots with the intuition liners or vans boots with their asym-x liners

If you're sticking with burton boots I suggest the 09 rulers. Stiff out of the box but for me they broke in to a perfect flex, enough ankle support but still able to tweak. Pretty damn light, not much of a difference between the rulers and the ozones (which are supposed to be ultra light) Yes I ride them in the park.
