jnshapiro Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 If you're thinking about having a bootfitter setup a pair of those moldable liners, do it! I visited one today in Tahoe and he set me up. What a difference! The boots are much more comfortable, better control, and he even put in one of those straps at the top that acts like a 5th buckle. Talk about stiff! Well worth the trip up and the $$. Joel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Sub Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 better control? you're riding already? damn tahoe is gonna have a good year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnshapiro Posted September 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 No, not riding yet. But it's really obvious from the significant improvement in fit that I'll have better control. The amount of slop that was in the boot is gone. There is none now. I'm really amazed at the change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Sub Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 I was getting really jealous for a second there, although Ill bet someone in NA is riding already so what model liners did you get then? Even "just" thermoflex are a HUGE step up from standard in my opinion! Love em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

www.oldsnowboards.com Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 PowderStash Camera Links. There site is up and running , I noticed that they have a banner that grows from the bottom up now each click. Still a very useful site if you are in the PNW PS, Still "Buggy". You will get broken links if you don't again click on "Cameras". Then hit the back button on your browser to clear the advertising bar at the bottom. Cool, to see what the areas look like with grass and tourist running around "Whistler". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnshapiro Posted September 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 I got the latest intuition liners. The fitter checked my cork insoles and decided that they still fit correctly. So it was a matter of doing the insoles. Nothing on the boots needed blowing out, so that was good. Incidentally, each liner weighed nearly a pound less than the stock liners from the boots. That weight savings should help a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gleb Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 after i get a new board, my boots are of next priority. Last year i had to wear them barefoot because they were too tight. This year, I'm getting a moldable liner and blowing the boot out a few times. Can't wait to ride in complete comfort. Anyone selling a used moldable liner for cheap?

Gleb Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 thats insane!!! today was like 70 out here but its gradually getting colder. My friends in vermont said its already too cold to be out in a t-shirt there so the snow around the corner...a two month long corner. I got my season passes ready though!
