Hi Ya'll!
I was sold a Tecnica mach1 lv 95 in the store (95 is flex).
I am a 120 lbs but an ex racer at the Nor-Am level. I ski about 30 days on piste and 30+ off piste each season. My touring boots are the scarpa GS RS, (which claims to be a 120 flex but it is a touring boot).
I am not sure if the Tecnica mach1 lv 95 boots are going to be too soft for me, or if they are going to be fine. I coach young ski racers ((very young,6-9 yrs) I help them start carving) and my local mountain tends to have more powder/softer snow than most places!
If I use the boots on snow, the ski store said I can't return them. So If I take them skiing I have committed to them and can't go back, this feels high stakes!
Theres a couple clips of me skiing my touring boots shoved into a slalom ski here ( I know that that is not good practice). It feels a little sloppy when I ski these but a touring boot flexs differently than a downhill boot!
Should I keep them or return them before its too late?
