You need a little give in them, you need to be able angle your ankles for tricks. If your boots don't give a little then your ankles will. Thats the way I see it. Jet

I like mine stiff, like a snowboard boot.

do you want your ankles or knees to hurt

If you had to choose between SS D2's and SS PB floyds?

(sidekicknicholas)

I have/had both pairs... and honestly I like both pairs about the same.

I had shanes (very soft) before the d2's and thought I would hate the stiffness, I loved them... then got a pair of Floyds and also love them.

I feel the 2 laces give you a "tighter" feel, but either boot is better than anything else I've ever used.

I epecially dig the Floyds at the cable -- quicker on/off and more flex for pressing stuff

but between those two its a win win... and getting the inner ankle harness (they may have done away with them) really adds/subtracts stiffness...

Very inappropriate thread title for a public forum.
