Rossignol SAS 110 Sensor3 Ski Boot - Men's 10-22-09
Love these boots! My only complaint is that I wish they were a little bit stiffer.(I think they are making a SAS120 now) They don't really feel like a 110 flex to me. But this boot does it all, it's nice and lightweight for bootpacking, its got shock absorbing cusions for impacts, which surprisingly helps more than I thought. Overall a great "do it all" boot.
I live in Japan and wear a 30.5cm boot so I didn't have the luxury of trying on these boots before I purchased them. Luckily, the online chat feature here at Backcountry allowed me to determined what sizes these boots were similar to. Fortunately, the fit was perfect.
I just got back from 4 days in Niseko and I have ZERO complaints. I spent about 75% of my time in the park and the other 25% skiing the whole mountain. The first thing I noticed was that nothing hurt, even when I hit the jumps too fast and overshot and landed on the flats, it didn't matter, the impact cushion under the footbeds absorbed everything.
I did notice these boots are bit stiffer than my old boots but I was glad to have that when I was skiing down the blacks and blues at high speed and it wasn't so much stiffer that I felt impaired in the park.
Also, these things are tough, my old boots would scratch and gouge as a natural side effect of park skiing (or more likely crashing) but my boots look practically brand new.
Finally, these boots are COMFORTABLE. The liner feels really thick and soft, my toes never felt cold, and after a while you can barely tell you have them on.
Bottom line, I am 100% satisfied with my purchase.
(side note: Japan imposes a hefty tariff on imported ski boots that I was not expecting so watch out if you're in the same situation as me)
You pretty much need to just try on a bunch of ski boots in order to find the one you like. These ended up being the ones for me. There were no spots that dug into my foot and the hold everywhere was great. They are a pretty stiff boot and also have a vibram sole which is a plus!
