Palau wrap liners which have been baked 3 times and slit on sole to accomdate Hotronics cable in footbed (footbed/heater not included). Right heel area of inner liner fabric had a quarter size wear on which was repaired with fabric tape.

Where’s the video and/or photos?

Not sure if they improved upon nylon hardware, but my old boots would not hold canting adjustments. You may need to find something robust as here:

Are these boots the same ones worn during your catastrophic wipe out? If so, you may have stretched them a bit.

Hey Barry, you just switched out from RED to BLUE springs which are softer, more flex. You may want to try heavier BRONZE springs at your size. Scroll to the bottom of page 1 in this thread

One of the reasons I jumped into UPZ's was interference between #2 & #3 buckles on my rear boot on Track 700's.

Facebook . . . David Winters Reason # 458 why I hate Covid: Cody Winters Shrimpy was contact-traced from a fellow racer who tested positive. He was tested negative, but the protocols say he can't race in tomorrow's Giant Slalom race. After his great 2nd place finish today in Slalom, he's devastated, of course....

Pitkin County, Colo., home to Aspen Snowmass, will require overnight visitors coming from outside Pitkin, Eagle, or Garfield counties to complete an affidavit confirming they had a negative Covid-19 test result 72 hours prior to arrival, or will quarantine, either for 14 days upon arrival or until they obtain a negative test result in Pitkin County. The requirement goes into effect Dec. 14. Pitkin is the only county in Colorado with these requirements. According toThe Aspen Times, one of the biggest challenges for a community like Aspen is the need communicate the requirements to visitors in advance, which will require a collaborative effort.

What size boot you looking for? I believe May have a pair to sell in a 27.5

Have had some stellar days riding solo . . . but your concern always brings GEORGE THORGOOD to mind! And if George offends , , ,

X - hard to offer suggestions to improve without seeing but here are some starting points for study: https://www.alpinecarving.com/technique.html Heel side While a perfect toe side carve feels great, a perfect heel side carve feels even better, but it's harder to pull off. To take up the sport of carving is to seek the perfect heel side turn. Your carving ability will be limited by your weakest side: toe side or heel side. Carvers are usually less skilled on heel side. A poor heel side has a bad cumulative effect: Turns are not tight enough, causing excessive speed. The excessive speed causes the toe side turns to be more difficult. Carvers wind up trying to check their speed on toe side, which limits the effectiveness of the toe side turn, making the next heel side turn completely fall apart. Therefore, it is critical to develop your heel side turn: If you improve your heel side by a factor of two, your toe side turns will also improve dramatically, and your overall carving will improve by a factor of 4. A lot of carvers start down a run and drop into their first carved turn on toe side, because it is easier than on heel side. However, if you are not oriented to start with a toe side carve, you will wind up wasting a turn to get the board around to toe side. It is important to learn how to drop into your first carved turn on heel side to avoid wasting vertical. In fact, you may want to only start your first carved turns on heel side, to force you to practice it. To start a carve on heel side, you will need a lot of angulation, and you will need to build up speed using weight shift: visualize moving your hips down the hill, out from under your torso. A lot of carvers are plagued with edge hold problems on heel side, which can appear as two phenomena: wavy trenches or chatter. If it feels like the tail of the board is oscillating back and forth, you are probably leaving wavy trenches. It happens because the nose and tail of the board are each trying to carve a different radius. There are two ways to fix this problem: Avoid twisting the board longitudinally. Try using more heel lift on the back foot. Don't maintain the same rigid static pressure during the turn. Instead, apply dynamic pressure using a few techniques: Progressively shift your weight from forward to back throughout the turn Progressively increase your angulation throughout the turn Progressively twist your upper body towards the inside of the turn. To allow the board to seek its most natural arc, try unlocking the lean adjusters on your boots. If the entire board chatters or washes out, it means you are unbalanced, or the board is twisting. Some remedies: Keep your weight over the carving edge by angulating. See the section on Angulation for several tips, including moving your outer hand to the inside of the turn. Tilt the board higher on edge. A board tilted at a low angle is more likely to skid out. Strive to get early edge angle. A stiff setup on bumpy terrain is not a good combo. Your binding setup might need tweaking. Make sure that you are centered on the board, and that both legs are contributing an equal amount of pressure during a turn. Do not tense up your legs, otherwise the board will chatter. Bend your knees more and relax your muscles. If you twist the board, the nose will want to carve a different radius than the tail. Board twist can happen if you bend your knees aggressively, rotate your body into the turn, and don't have enough lift on the rear binding. In this situation your rear heel will try to lift up as your front toe pushes down, twisting the board. Chatter can be caused by too much pressure on the tail ... or too little: Don't break forward at the waist, otherwise you will take pressure off the tail, causing it to skid out. To avoid breaking at the waist, try to tilt the board using your lower leg, with your knees and ankles. You might be exerting pressure on the board too late in the carve. As you are finishing the turn and the board is about 15º from the finish, you need to be taking pressure off the board to start the next turn. If you are still pressuring the board beyond this point, it's going to skid. Shift the time interval of pressure toward the early part of the turn. This problem can occur if the board doesn't get tilted high on edge soon enough at the beginning of the carve - as a result, the rider over-pressures the board during the later half of the carve trying to get it higher on edge. http://www.carvers.it/club-ski-cern-ch-snowboard-tutor-the-elementary-turn/ http://www.carvers.it/club-ski-cern-ch-snowboard-tutor-basic-carve-turn-extension-turns/

Hey 1xsculler Seems I recommended this a few years ago . . . https://www.sportlegs.com/ be sure to take this supplement per the label directions ie., BEFORE you ride on day 1 and repeat as directed. SportLegs will not help the burn after it has started so don't try on day #2 and report back they did not help. It's not a miracle supplement but something to buffer the burn. When you complete your day, walk around the parking lot or at least the base area and keep the fluids flowing. Is this the year you will post up some video clips or photos of your riding for the community to help coach your riding to the next level?
