Hi Robbie,
To be frank, you shouldn't go looking for boots with a set pair in mind, rather your bootfitter should understand your ski level, look at your feet, what happens when you flex etc, then recommend one or 2 pairs of boots that will fit your feet.
regards,
greg

Hi Greg,
Thanks for the post.
I have one boot fitter i use out in Canada, and he has recommended them for me. I trust him completley. He even managed to get pairs that didnt fit too well to work for me (when i got them on a deal from a rep).
I just wondered if anyone had any experience on this particular boot.

ah ok, cheers for the clarificaion. If they fit you and your skiing near your fitter so that he can tweak them, sounds like a winner to me!

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Robbie, My new boots are Diabalo Flames from Snowcovers, Diabalo Mags are I believe pretty near a race boot (completely different plug to the Flames and Fires).
Took about 4 to 5 weeks of tweeking, 1 abandoned Extremely afternoon, one abandoned murray camp, an angle grinder(!), and many punches to get them just right for my freaky feet and full time use. They are now suitable for all night bar use too
Who's your fitter?

Hi stuarth, oh no, you copy my skis, and now i am going to copy your boots? oh dear.
I had heard about you abandoning the Extrememly, very poor excuse so i hear!
Given the lack of good skiing, seems like the ideal time to break in new boots. Always takes me ages to get a good fit, a big pain barrier to break through!
I use the guys at Fanatykco, and wouldnt go anywhere else.
See you in 3 sleeps
