Deeluxe or Head for new boots ?

Post by pbaryga » Wednesday 25 November 2009, 16:40

Hi there,

I have to change my old F2 Roadster 163 and Raichle SB224. I already
bought a Silberpfeil 168 with F2 Intec Titanium bindings + Heels.
Now the problem is the boots. Go for Deeluxe 700 Track or Head Stratos
Pro ?
What about the size ? Mine (Raichle) are 27.5, would it be the same for,
at least, the Deeluxe ? What about the Head ?
The thing is there are not a shop close to where I leave. I guess that
the best one in terms of items to propose is
http://www.auvieuxcampeur.fr (but I had a quick chat with a guy on the
phone saying that Head and Deeluxe are quite different in terms of
stiffness and size)

Any recommendation is more than welcome ;-)

Philippe.

I think the SB224 and track 700 have different shell designs, so if you really like the fit of your SB224's you might consider the 325's. I have a Head type shell and it's a bit wide maybe for me, otherwise they're great.
