Strengths: Cheap, light, SOoooo easy to do up and adjust. Can upgrade the liner to one of the better ones as you progress. At first high flexibility is good and forgiving, holds heel reasonably well. Its a fairly cheap and comfortable boot and that`s what should be remembered, perfect for anyone from beginner to good intermediate though if you are at the top end of this and are in the market for a boot that is really going to help you progress to the next level do what you know you should and go more expensive! I personally bought all my gear at one time as a lower intermediate and these will last me a couple of years I would say, maybe when I upgrade my boots I will go spend more on boots than these, but they will last until I am much better.
Weaknesses: Could do with a lower zone only adjustor but as a beginner you are not going to notice this particularly, also the more expensive boots have this. It is what it is.....and as such is scored with that in mind....

Strengths: The lightest boot I`ve owned, comfy - no pinching anywhere
Weaknesses: lightness means it`s not the most padded boot I`ve had, so I don`t know if that will affect warmth

Strengths: I`m a first time snowboarder and decided to take the time to invest in boots first. I tried on Burton rentals at the resort and they were like cement bricks on my feet, making it difficult to do toe-side turns. I also tried a few other brands like Burton, Ride, Morrow, and other ThirtyTwos. Not only is this STW boa so easy to put on, but it holds my heel down perfectly, without additional padding in the shoe. It was heat moldable so that probably helped. It`s also not a very heavy boot and that made walking around easy. Overall - it`s a great, comfy boot and after the third day of snowboarding lesson (2 days with this shoe) I have nothing bad to say about it.
