i read some of the reviews on this boot that complained about the lack of forward lean and the ability to presure the ski tip before skiing these boots. i skiied the 24.5-25 shell. i noticed the same issues. if you look at the beefer instep strap on the smaller size, it hits the bottom of the shell overlap for the top buckle. the boot can't flex forward becasue the instep strap acts as a stop. it appears th eissue may be different on the newer (red) tornado.
