@Markymark29, try skiing in 99% of what most Europeans would consider to be a touring boot (or what we used to have to tour in 10/15 years ago then jump back into Mercurys and you will see what I mean...

@spyderjon, A fellow SH skied with last 2 seasons said his Vulcans were a pita and had had a lot of trouble Thought you skied Mercurys anyway?

Nah real men rocked Mercury, Vulcans for those willing to chuck an extra 150 at the same thing, without any progressive flex. Real current men rock an MTN Lab!

In case anybody is still following this..
I bought the Tecnica cochise 130 and have been skiing on it last week.
I had to make a few adjustments to the shell as my feet are quite wide, the fit around my large calf is excellent. I am happy with the fit but will most likely have to push them out again this season.
The ski control with this boot is excellent, great progressive flex and does not seem to bottom out even when skiing aggressively on bumps. The boot is more similar to a performance boot than a Tech boot. Considerably better than my previous tech boot which had terrible ski control.
I have not yet gone up hill but walk mode works easily so looking forward to trying this.
