https://snowboardingprofiles.com/vans-hi-standard-pro-snowboard-boots-reviewA boot for park and freestyle riders, and for casual all-mountain riders who don't push it to very high speeds. It's fine at moderate speeds and moderate carving too, but it really shines when you're riding creatively at lower speeds. The length is spot on and the width is exactly halfway between tight and loose. Pairs with boards 3–6/10 flex, and best at 4–5/10.
