I’m looking for new ski boots. I bought technica HV in an 85 flex last winter about this time. Since then I’ve taken a bunch if lessons, spent more time on the snow, and bought longer, stiffer skis. I am skiing more aggressively this year tackling groomed east coast blacks. My foot is slipping around in my boot and I’m pulling my heel completely up. #1 I need medium volume. #2 I probably would do better in 22.5 (not 23.5) #3. Would like stiffer flex. I am probably going to purchase the Salomon Supra boots with BOA (yes I’ve been to a bootfitter). I may have to order online to get the smaller size and then take to the local bootfitter. My question is/asking for advice on the flex. The 95 still feels soft and the 105 feels supportive but stiff. I can flex the ski inside. However, I ski 40-50% of the time with my kids. What do you ladies prefer/recomend? Am I going to regret a stiffer flex (105) when skiing with kids? If I had older kids or no kids I would buy the 105 flex. For reference I’m 5’1” 130-135 lb in decent shape, strength train with barbell 3-4x a week.
