    Boots for my 12 yr old ?

    We have had my daughter in the Roces boot for a couple of years. They worked good for what they are. She is now on the outside of the adjustment. What have you guys done with your little ones?
    She is at the age where she is still growing, shes 12, and I don't want to plop a ton of money on customs for a few days a year, but at the same time I realize how important boots are. Is it best to rent for now, and wait till she slows a bit? Go to a shop, and find out what Mondo she is, and work the internet??
    She has a size 7 foot, and has very thin, and bony feet..Any idea of what the best boot for that kind of foot..
    We are not near any boot shops..

    Advice..
    Thanks

    I have a 12 year old daughter with the same size foot and she loves her dalbello krypton jakk boots. Basically a krypton boot with a junior flex. They're hard to find but not too expensive and a lot of boot for the money. They would work great for lighter women too.

    I have a 11yo who loves the Nordica Doberman, the flex is 80 or 100. I feel bad when she has to hike with them on but I carry her skis.

    Yes boot are important buy boots and rent skis if you have to.
    People should learn endurance; they should learn to endure the discomforts of heat and cold, hunger and thirst; they should learn to be patient when receiving abuse and scorn; for it is the practice of endurance that quenches the fire of worldly passions which is burning up their bodies.
