  1. What would you consider as a stiff soft board boot I found some deals on things listed as stiff soft board boots. I am interested in the shells. If I find you a good deal can I get the shells for the same price of as the deal I find you shipping included?
  2. I was a little bit confused and looked at my crude measuring and noticed that I misread the tape measure my foot is like11 and one eighth inch.
  3. When I bought my ski boot online I converted by shoe size. And I checked it by crudely measuring my foot at home. But last time I went skiing i went to a boot fitter to get their opinion and they said 28.5 is my size and my ski boots were a good fit. My ski boots have no walk mode. The reason I say that I could fit into 27.5 is that I went on a different ski trip this spring and when I got rentals they only had 27.5 so I wore those and tightened up the buckles alot to keep my toes from smashing on the front of the boot. And I found them so be alot more precise then my ski boots but less comfortable for prolonged skiing, and when not skiing. I have no access to any other ski boots other then the k2 recons I have. I say I'm a light weight because I'm about 6 foot and weigh about 125-130 lbs and doing a rough measurement on my feet again they about 10.75 inch.
  4. Having ski boots i know that my condo is 28.5 and i do know i can fit into 27.5 if need be but that requires some really good heel hold so that my toes don't touch the end of the boot. I asked about the liners because I thought heard some where a certain brands will have a small range of snow sports boots that use the same shell but have different thickness liners for different sizes. Also thank for clearing up my. Confusion about the bails
  5. My boots aren't the mindbenders they are the recons so no AT, just grip walk soles. But I am lightweight for my height which is why I am looking onto carves.
  6. So just to update I may have found some deeluxe 325 size 9. I am a 10.5 but when I look at deeluxes website from what I can understand all the shells are the same but the liners determine the shoe size. Is ot possible for me to find some decently inexpensive liners to make the boot a 10-10.5? and how hard is it to find just liners that will fit me comfotably like my k2 recon 100?
  7. so, I have a set of ski boots i really enjoy and i am looking to get back into snowboarding without having to buy new boots and looking though the forum and I was drawn to the possibility to be able to get back into snowboarding without having to but a new set of boots and bindings. i do have some older snowboards that I am endeavoring to use. and one of the most helpful posts i found was one by JKarve where though for a different reason he was looking at the possibility of using ski boots as his hardboot and the post gave me hope but with more research a few questions came up to me. 1. does this include Grip Walk soles or does this apply to only touring and alpine soles? I am in a position, if in needed to, to make a front pad that matches the design of front rocker of my boots if need be or even just buy a set of alpine soles to use while using the hard boot bindings. 2. seeing as there seems to be some older brands of bindings. are bails standardized in a way that they are interchangeable between different brands? my current boots are 2023 k2 recon 100 with grip walk soles the current bindings I am looking at in order of probable affordability f2 carve RS used catek OS2s bomber TD3 standard bomber TD3 side winder I'm currently leaning toward the f2 carves because they cheaper and still have many of the customization options. Any help given is appreciated Edit: used catek OS2 is no longer under consideration due to the only used models found being step-ins.
