same boot as Garmont Radium

I spoke with Garmont, and these are the same boots as last winter's '08-'09 Garmont Radium for women. They are just a different color.
Great, high-performance, stiff boot for the resort and backcountry if your foot is the right size for Garmont's boots. Seem best for narrow, high volume feet.
The stock liners are not fabulous- no cushion, and they are difficult to stretch lengthwise, even with molding. I recommend replacing the Garmont liners with Intuition liners.
I am a shoe size 8, and a 24.5 was too short in length (toe crunch!), and a 25 was too roomy in volume (sloppy skiing).
