So I have been fighting my current boots (Salomon X Pro 80s) a lot this season. The fit is getting sloppy in the midfoot and heel but I also feel like I am crushing the boot, especially on warm days. I can get them to work but I'm scouting their replacement and there are tasty deals.
Anyhow.... Tried on a Technica Mach 1 LV 115 in my usual 24.5 and it was kind of astonishing how well it fit. Firm everywhere but no pinching. Could flex it in the warm shop. Decided an impulse boot buy was dumb.... But...
I know flex numbers aren't consistent between brands but is it insane for an intermediate skier (165cm, 60kg +/- cookies, more fit/strong than skilled) to consider something that high?
Please tell me yes so I don't go hunt these down on sale.
