I've never been a big fan of boa boots.

I have used 32 TM-twos, Ride FULs, and K2 Maysis boots.

They were all comfy.

The rides seemed comfiest.

I have eliminated the K2's but have added:

Celsius Cirrus Double Boa Snowboard

I really need some input please

what fits best on your foot?

mcancelliere · 11-09-2010, 08:20 PM

I do not know, I wish i had local shops to go to and try these boots on

J.Schaef · 11-09-2010, 09:00 PM

So, if you haven't tried on the K2s...... How did you eliminate them?

Nobody here is going to be able to tell you what boot fits YOUR foot the best.

Just go try on some dang boots. Buy whichever one is comfiest.

i got rid of that cuz a sales rep @ dog funk, told me he owned a pair, and said it was the stiffest boot out of my choices

The only boot i am able to try on is the ride

Are you a park rider or something? Im riding a pair of k2 maysis and love how stiff they are.

J.Schaef · 11-09-2010, 09:12 PM

Well, I guess the K2 MIGHT be the stiffest boot out of your 3 original choices.

Having used 2 of the three, and the maysis, I can say they are all very stiff. I'd be surprised if there was ever a stiffer boot than the insanos.

The only way you will ever know if a pair of boots will work for you, is to get them on your feet.

If you don't want stiff boots, the insanos, and the focus boa's aren't for you.

ok, stiffness aside, between the

ride insano, thirtytwo, and Celsius Cirrus, which is the better quality boot/has better tech?
