I tried on the Fischer Soma Zephyr 90. Unbelievable, it fits right out of the box (never happened to me before). However, the flex rating (90) is very similar to my old boots (Dalbello Elektra 8, 85). I wanted something with more edge hold. However, I cannot find the next model up in stiffness (the 100) in my local shops, and would have to buy it off the internet. I hate buying stuff without trying it on. Has anyone ever done this? How do bootfitters feel about your coming in to their shop to get adjustments made (as I would have to when the boot gets packed out) when you bought the boot somewhere else?
If I bought this boot, would an 85 vs. 90 be significant enough for me to feel? Is a 100 flex too much boot for me? I mostly ski intermediate trails on a K2 Burnin Luv. However, I don't feel my boots have enough edge hold to drive my skis as hard as I would like. Thanks.
