After seven seasons time to retire my RS 130's. Soles are pretty worn down and I could use a touch warmer liner. The reality of booting up in the parking lot and walking everywhere this season has convinced me I need new boots. Also, now late 40's and would appreciate a "bit" more comfort (still ski hard tho).
I've got a pair of RX 120 LV sitting on the floor next to me, via internet deal at just over $300. I understand the molds have been updated but they feel pretty good out of the box. I tried equivalent K2, Nordica and Technica (all 97 last) at a shop and my foot fits Lange all day long, so yay for me. Here comes the BUT - Am I going to miss the 130 flex? My blue RS's, even with the packed out liner, fit like a wetsuit and are so damn precise (and I barely crank the buckles). I recognize the best way to figure this out is to get on the snow, but would appreciate any insight before then, thanks!
