Boots for Tow-Ropes

I am fresh to this forum but not to snowboarding. Going on my 12th season and I created an account because I figured this was the place to answer such a specific question. I dug around for a while but couldn't find a thread that even brought up tow rope riding. I'm a mid-west boy. Now if you've ridden in the mid-west you know what this means. Jumps under 50ft. Sadly, pow days are few and far between. And hot laps with endless jibs. And the definition of "hell's foot" is brought in when you add a tow rope into the mix. For those who don't know hell's foot is an aching pain in your arch from constantly holding pressure on your edges to combat rail manuvers that never end along with holding pressure on the tow-rope. I can never go more than 20 minutes without extreme amounts of pain. Sometimes its so bad I have to stop and take my board off and give my feet a rest. I would really like to be able to lap for 3-4hrs with no complaints. I understand that theres probably a lot of other things that go into it than just boots but thats not what I'm changing. I am looking at purchasing a new boot and would like some direction toward a boot with some good flex for the rails and plenty of the comfort to help ease the hell's foot but without sacrificing on on responsiveness as its not unreasonable for me to head out west where the riding is different. I am currently riding some 2013 joe sexton thirtytwo boots along with 2010 Union Data bindings, union bindings will not change I love them to death, but the boots are not cutting it. The fast-track lace wore out and they were not comfortable or responsive enough for what I'm looking for. I've ridden K2's and 2010 DC Parks in the past. I think I am looking for traditional lace-ups but I may not be apposed to a hybrid lace system if thats whats gonna do the trick. Been looking for Burton, DC, or Thirtytwo boots. If you could shoot me some models that fit the bill to look into it would be greatly appreciated.
