Just wanted to weigh in on the breaking down issue. I'm not a light weight guy and got three years out of my Risport Etoiles, with waltz jumps and a lot of skating. I'm now in the RF3 and not doing more than singles as jumps but I can't imagine breaking them down in the near future.
I recently watched that Edea video where Max Aaron talks about how his boots hold up 3 to 4 years. Imagine that? So I really wonder, how are beginner adults (even those on the heavier side) supposed to break down those rather stiff boots in such little time? If a quad jumper like Max gets three years out of his boots, is the general overbooting suggestion more of a "just in case" approach?
