Hye! I would like to ask your opinion about Focus Boa and Lock Boa. Previous boot of my friend was an Exus Boa (flex level 4), rider having medium level, preferable style all mountain. Which of the boots mentioned do you consider more appropriate in this situation?

I have a pair of lock boa from last season and i know that altho 32 say's it's a flex 5 id say its more like an 7/8 when you have the boa down tight. with a focus boa (which i also tried in the shop) id say youre heading up a little more to 8/9. for all mountain, lock boots are fine, but as you cant adjust upper/lower independently you may have some hot spots thatll put strain on your foot. a focus boa could fix this...but with an 80 dollar bump in price. if i were you id just go with the lock.
