slapos Posted November 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 @Mtrappy Mike you have used the World Cup liner with sidewinder or just the normal one? I completely agree everybody that everyone likes a litte bit different on the set up. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobdea Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 yeah, look at all the knowledge here, good stuff. i liked zips and I like injection foam liners too! Some of the zipfits I guess you can add more cork sludge to them. I never did that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy some tubes of Zipfits sludge, a home made dowel plunger, heat the sludge in a microwave and push it in to the ankle area and maybe the tongue too. The only difference in some of the various models of Zipfits is how much sludge is in them. It’s all on YouTube and/or the Zipfit website.

slapos Posted December 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 (edited) I had my very first 3 hours of zipfit with 951 shells today. Iron grip on the heel, no painful points. I kept them heated in hot gear bag before snowboarding. First liners that I do not have to open them buckles after a ride. Really curious if the performance will remain the same during the whole winter. Edited December 1, 2018 by slapos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much longer working life than intuition or thermoflex. I should of sucked it up and gotten another set....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePeonsChamp Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 Hey @slapos I was wondering if you had any opinion on if I should get the world cup edition or not. I haven't done any racing yet and don't really plan to. I am 193cm tall and 94 kg. Just curious thanks. Oh and I have a plate but haven't been riding it.

slapos Posted December 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2018 Just to keep you guys in the loop. I have now 6 days on the zipfit liners. Can't see any change in support. Iron grip on the heel still with no painful points on the foot. I keep the shells in a hot gear bag overnight before the day I ride. The sidewinder liner together with the boot rides awesome. For now I can safely say that this is the best liner I owned so far. Before I had stock upz flo and upz foams. I added a little omfit to the tongues to compensate for my chicken legs so I don't have to tighten the buckles so hard. No issues with warmth. All nice and cozy. Best Regards from the other side of the pond 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburk Posted December 20, 2018 Report Share Posted December 20, 2018 Thanks for the update. Which heated gear bag did you end up with? I’ve read that some have longevity issues, let us know how it works out in the long run. My Intuitions might be done by the end of this season, so this thread will be highly relevant to me next summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokkis Posted December 20, 2018 Report Share Posted December 20, 2018 12 days on mine, few on .951 and rest with UPZ, works fine on both. Last 4 days with heated bag, branded as Leki. Zipfits feel like nice sock on my feet, and gone are heel lifts. Great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapos Posted December 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2018 I ended up with head heated boog bag as it was the biggest and has a nice feature for standing with your liners or feet on the ground as it provides a mat. Easily fits two pairs of hardboots I had a few heated bags in my hands and they are all made by snoweagle. I am very happy so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveo Posted December 22, 2018 Report Share Posted December 22, 2018 Looking good! You're both selling me on a pair of Zipfit for when my Palau liners die in my RC10! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
