What number flex are they? What level skier are they geared for? Were the orange ones from a couple years ago any good?

110 flex (but all ski boot companies dont use the same scale, so it doesn;t really tell you anything)
high end skier or one with small amounts of ankle flexion
same as current boots, and they are good, as is any boot, IF IT FITS YOU. and is worthless if it doesn;t fit you.

It's too bad Salomon doesn't have a website or something.

Yeh, you know how there's, like an X-wave 10, 9, 8, etc ?
Well that number totally refers to the flex of the boot, dude Duh !
Although it's not an exact science, as stated.
They only turn orange, when you've pissed yourself a coupe of times, BTW.

Current solly boot site says 10=110 index and 9=100 index flex, so there is supposed to be a difference in the 2005-06 boots. Whether it can be felt is another matter.
