I've been skiing on original Nordica Dobermanns, 130 flex. They're getting tired. They've worked great, only needed punch outs at the 5th met plus Zipfit liners that snugged the heel & ankle.
Which replacements? I try to ski as technically correctly as I can, all mountain, and appreciate the precision of the Dobies. But--I'm now 68, 6', 180#, narrow foot, especially the heel, not as much strength as before and never was a hard charger.
Help me get started picking a boot:
Nordica Dobermann WC EDT 130
Anything else from Nordica?
Head Raptor 130 RS
Head Raptor 115 RS
Head Challenger line
Anything else from Head or others?
I'll be skiing in Solden, Austria, for a week. Good place to buy boots? Good fitters? How are prices? The nearest shop to home is 2 hours away, so buying boots during a long ski trip works well for me.
