Anyone using these Lang Comp Pros as a freeski boot? I've tried them on and the seem to fit well. I'm just concerned that with little padding in the liner and none of the freeski features like a shock absorbing foot board these might really beat up my feet and shins when skiing off piste. I've tried the Banshe Pro and Super Blaster but those just don't fit right. Any opionins from those who have tried these in crud, bumps, and ungroomed would be really helpful. Thanks.

I used a similar boot to this last season as a Snowbird local. It was this year's 'Radical Race' plug with a really thin liner. The liner in this boot is a bit more padded, but still really thin. I've noticed fewer pain problems with thinner liners as long as the shells are fit properly and my footbeds are dialed. Smooshy liners allow my skinny shins to float around a bit more which leads to more instances of shin-bang when I goof a landing. In my opinion, padded heels don't do anything but give shop dudes something to point at when selling boots. I have a Salomon SPK Pro with a big gel pad and have never noticed a benefit. My feet, ankles, and toes have never had a pain problem due to thin liners used while skiing hard on crappy snow. I'm confidant that once the fit of your boot is dialed, you'll really appreciate the performance of these boots.
