So im looking at these boots and theres a $100 difference between the 2, is there a signifcant upgrade in 2010 from 2009 in terms of comfort and tech? there so much boot jargon about these boots i have no clue what any of it means. also does the 2009 tongue have velcro on each side to keep it position from moving while boarding? i had prions and it was annoying when the tongue wouldnt sit straight and be moved all the way to the right or left.

i have the 2010s and theyre very nice, never tried the 2009s. theyre super comfy and i never have any pain or strange fatigue bellow the knee which ive experienced with other boots. they work well for whatever you want to do, i ride them in the park and theyre plenty responsive when you just want to charge the mountain. i got them last season and they have held up very well so far, plan on riding them again this year. overall the best boots ive had.

10/11's do have Velcro on the tongue to keep it from shifting, not sure about 09/10's. I have 10/11's and love them, a great responsive and comfortable all-mountain boot.

What prices are you looking at? That's only a $200 boot, so $100 is a big chunk of change unless the 09s are stupid cheap.

At some point 32 went from having crappy integrated footbeds to removable footbeds. I think it was after the 07/08 season or after the 08/09, but I don't remember. Might want to call up 32 and ask them. |

I have both (I think). The 2010s heel fell off after a few weeks but got it epoxied back down and its all good now.
the 09's dont have velcro but instead have a powerstrap around the shin that feeds through the tounge, this stops any slippage. The sizing on the lastest lashed has changed from previous seasons. My 2010's size 6 have excess room where as my size 6 09's are almost too small. Try them on first and remember that 32's pack out quite a bit, and also become soft really fast. edit: actually I may think I have the 2008's and 2011's. Sorry!
