Nordica Ace Of Spades Ski Boot - Men's - 2010 BCS

these boots are... everything i could hope for. i recently just left the circuit, but im a spandex racer at heart, and i was looking for something that could in the sandbox, treehouse, and jungle gym. and to answer that, the name says it all. unfortunately i might have bought a size too large, i was in a squeeze for time and just bought them. no regrets! i landed my first cliffs. hit my first rails. landed my first fives, and could still rail the corduroy. but like i said. im a racer i would prefer a tighter fit. dont think about anything other than the size. other than that. just do it!

Great boots, the 3 buckle is the real deal. Middle buckle locks your heel in so you can let these things rip and feel comfortable doing it. These are advertised as park/pipe boots, but their all-mountain and off-piste abilities are what really shine. I'm 6'0" 225 expert skier (stay away from park/pipe), and these handle like a dream in pow, trees, bumps, and steeps. Stiff enough to provide great support, but forgiving enough to make for a smooth ride. On groomers and at high speeds, the variable flex works as advertised...the more you lean forward and the faster you're skiing, the stiffer and more responsive they are. Real snappy and project tons of energy to the skis in the right places. Broke in really easy too by themselves, so I wouldn't recommend heat-molding them. Make sure you don't buy them too big...mine were pretty tight when I first put them on, but they are perfect now. Ski them 5 or 6 times, then put an insert in if needed, and you'll be good. Really easy on and off your feet too...and you'll have the most colorful boots on the mountain. Get after these!

I must admit, like a lot of people, I was a bit nervous as this seemed like a park boot trying to be a big mountain boot, but I've been very impressed. The flex is progressive and at 225 lbs, I haven't felt like they were too soft. No, they don't feel like a 130 flex, but they also don't feel soft like a 100 flex either, so I really feel like they're kind of in the sweet spot. 3 buckles is AWESOME, the middle buckle locks you in. Probably one of the easiest on/off boots I've ever worn and sick graphics to boot. I highly recommend this boot for comfort AND performance.

only skied on these boots for a couple of days and i think they're brilliant in everything ive tried, bumps especially were a breeze. Im 6'2 and 230 pounds, thought they might be a little soft but the flex is just right. im an instructor and so spend all day in these boots at least 5 days a week and think i will be very happy in these.
