Good pair of shoes for Downhill/Freeride mountain biking?

Hey all, I go biking at Glen Tress fairly regularly these days and I'm needing a new pair of shoes for the bike. I have decent pedals, pretty strong and very grippy, the only problem is my feet sometimes come off because I have a crap pair of trainers for biking. I mostly do the rougher stuff but I also occasionally do the Freeride park as well.

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what I'm looking for in a pair of shoes, particularly the sole. I'm currently using a pair of running shoes (lol) and I think there are too many grooves in the shoes, but I'm not sure. Would a flatter sole be better?

I'm thinking of these:

Let me know what you think.


Cheers,
Craig
