Dynafit boots and bindings

[teambone]

Has anyone ever tried, or own/owned the dynafit freeride aero. The four buckle silver and red boot. Im thinking of getting into this dynafit thing and want to make sure that the boots are sufficient and the binding are suffice. Id like to know how stiff the freeride aeros actually are. What would the stiffness rating be compared to alpine (80-90-100)? Also are the dynafit TLT Comforts suffice for big mountian riding, spinning tricks ect... or do you easliy pop out when your skiing gets crazy.
Thanks

I find that Comforts are great for 3s 5s and 7s but for 10s and 12s they start to pop off. Also, they suck for switch landings. Those little pins on the toepiece tend to catch my baggy pants which is really annoying. I don't like getting inverted on them that much either. But they are really light for when I carry my skis back up the pipe and the leashes on them match the chinstrap of my LS9000 so I guess they can't be all bad.

search around, seriously, there must only be a couple dozen adequate threads.

as for the flex index, they're only a tad softer than solly xwave 8s.
I ground off the flex limiting tabs, which if you search you will discover, give the boot a very sharp flex transition. Without the tabs the flex great and nice and progressive. This is with the stock dynafit thermos which I really like so far. I tried them with scarpas, and they were significantly softer.
