terekhov Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 considering new boots for this season, i have good deal on lemans boots, but cannot put hands on 'em. so please tell me a few words about their stiffnes, comparing to sb323 (very soft to my liking, i cannot ride this at all, including freeride) and sb325 (i ride sb325 race now, and doesn't like fit of af/indy/suzuka shell). can i take off with lemans, or i gonna to at least suzukas? aggressive style, 190lbs.

fin Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 terekhov, My version of this comparision would be that the LeMans will be more like your SB323 (softer flex) then the 325. The 325 where actually pretty darn stiff for their time and still are stiff by todays standards. However, if you can locate a set of "race" tounges for those Lemans you will then have a much stiffer boot getting close to yuor 325. Also, keep in mind you could also take the tougue from your current 325's and put them in the new Lemans. As long as they are in the same size range (tounges come in three sizes) then they will snap right in. If a firmer boot is what you are looking for then I would suggest the Indy or the Heads. Both are currently on the stiff side of the scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike T Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 I cannot tell the difference while riding between a 423 (previous name for the LeMans) w/ a tongue from a 325, and just riding a 325. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
