    Feeler trade: Atomic Hawx Ultra 120 for softer 27.0 boot?

    Okay, committing the cardinal sin of the TGR boards: requesting help finding a SOFTER boot! Yes, I admit. I even got SHORTER skis this spring.... it's all going downhill in my 30's!

    At any rate, I have a pair of 27.0 Atomix Hawx Ultra 120 boots that are super cool, damn light and a great boot, but kick my ass a bit with the stiff flex. If you'd be interested in trading for your lightly-used 110-ish flex boot with a 100-ish last I would be interested. I love a good Dalbello but would be open to whatever else you're holdin'. Can post pics later.

    If your current boots fit well, talk to a boot fitter and find out if they can be softened with a little grinding.

    Duh!
    There's probably even a bolt you can just take out.
    No longer stuck.

    I got one out already, but hadn't thought about the grinding of the shell. I'll ask!

    many ways to make it softer, if they fit is good, keep it.
