Ok guys,

Ron weighs in at around 175lbs.

The thing that if I understand it, he needs a boot with a solid suck you into it heel pocket and with his narrow lower leg, the cuff on the boot has to be narrow.

Ron, based on my experience with the Head RS80, I think the RS90 would be and outstanding choice due to the performance and cuff fit.

Still, that Salomon Falcon 10 looks very appealing. Funky cool liner with a narrow upper cuff. Saw and held the new Falcon in the shop the other day...pretty impressive looking boot from Soli!

I'm sticking with the fact that Ron should avoid a plug boot or full race type boot because he likes to ski most of the mountain, he's in his boots for more than 1 hour so comfort and warmth might be important.

Finally and most imperative, the color must match his outfit. So.....the boots can be yellow, orange, grey, or black.

It's really all about the boot that is quick edge to edge and the foot that fits the boot like a glove...you know....like the one OJ tried on....

"wiggle it in their baby for maximum performance"!

Liner fit, lower shell fit, upper cuff fit, proper footbeds, good even flex pattern, (in a cold environment) ..

Now Ron, how many more shotguns do you have to sell to spend the bucks for the new boots?

Best,
Gary
