    This company out of Loveland needs to make longer sleeves for Alpine boards

    same day response from Racksleeve:

    Thanks Patrick! 

    I’m working on some product improvements for the 2020 production run and will explore making an XLong to solve for our alpine board brethren.

    Be careful with the M5 bolts as it is easy to overtighten as compared to a phillips head screw.  Just snug them up then check after the first day of riding.  I put a wrap of pipe (teflon) tape on the bolt threads for added security and ease of extraction.

  3. Hey Mario, sorry to read of your injury.  Do heed  the Dr’s warnings about time to recover.  I was told to allow 6 weeks for healing when I fractured a rib.  Doc said the concern if not allowing enough time could risk a punctured lung.

  4. From https://upzboots.com/faqs/#1454489871934-b7f58d4d-f7b2

    "UPZ Flo Liners can be molded using 2 methods:

    Self-Mold – this means that the flo in the liner will mold to your foot just by riding in the boots.  After a day on the slope the flo will mold to your foot shape.

    Custom Heat Mold – this means that the inside portion of the flo liner can be heated using a system like Salomon Heat Sticks.

    NB: UPZ Flo Liners must not be placed in an oven at anytime.  The outside material of the liner is not made for direct heat from any type of oven. A heat stick system is the only correct type of heating."

     

     

  5. Try wearing your boots at home for a half hour to see if this could be a circulation problem.  When I tried this, my feet were starting to go numb in  deluxe boots with a thermo liners.  Remolding using the next clasp (tighter) helped.

     The next season, my feet became happier in UPZ's with Palau liners and Hotronic heaters for sub-zero f riding.
