I'll wait for Ron to reply to your post, but I can give you some pertinent information.  Ron recently changed his primary skiing focus from east coast to Steamboat, and from primarily groomed slopes to lots of off-piste and tree stuff, and to Watea 94's as his primary Steamboat ski  As part of this, I think he felt that he wanted boots that were a little less stiff and that gave him more feel for the softer snow.  And he may, in fact, have another pair of boots that are his primary east coast boot that goes with his supershapes.
