I currently wear K2 darko boots and the fitment is pretty similar, but a softer boot. They're so comfy I can wear them the whole day without having to adjust or re-lace them.
Nice thanks. I prefer a stiff boot just bc of the way I ride. I don't do much park at all so a nice stiff freeriding boot is what I'm looking for.

The burton ion is hands down the best stiff free riding boot I've come across. If they would have had the moved laces when I bought my imperials I would have bought the ions. This years has it... WAY more comfortable.

yeah for sure. with the darko's if I lace them up tight I can still ride powder really well, but loosen them a bit I can hit the park all day. so with T1's I'm sure it's something more in your ball park.

I have to agree that evo.com is a pretty good website. Just bought me a powder stick 2012 model with 30% off no tax and free shipping. It's hard to find anything 40% off or higher these days.

I liked it back when they were sierra snowboard with a warehouse and you can just pick up your orders directly from there.

Same here. Definitely not as cool as it used to be. Now it's pretty much just another "the-house"

But occasionally they have solid deals.

The GLX? Someone got a great deal.


I got a new board for this year but I'm half tempted to sell it and try to pick this up...

K2 runs a little bigger than Burton. I wear a 11 shoe. 10 in Burtons and 9.5 in K2/Ride. Tried them last season.

Still using my DC Judge. Looking for something new this season.
