Bobby Buggs Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Well Im happy to report my first day riding on them was Great!!! Because Im a tinkering ass I had to try some old Thermo liners I had in the basement. They are old as dirt and had very little volume left to them but worked out for today. This is the first time in YEARS I buckled my boots in the lodge and didnt touch them again for the Entire day!!!, for me kinda a big deal because before today on every lift ride I was opening buckles. I forgot what it was like to have boots not beating the s hit outta my feet. The spring system worked well for flex, Overall very positive experience for my first time in the uPZ. Also got to ride with Mike "lafcadio", he was putting on quite a show for the chair lift on his Kessler, really made me up my game and it turned out to be a stellar day. Thanks Mike for getting me back in the groove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Bobby, good to hear it worked out great. I will have to wait till I get out for my first experience with green UPZ's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yooperluke Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Love,love mine..... with corks and Intuition Plugs. Stay booted up and warm all day. Little slop in the heel but I've learned to deal with it. Wish they would put a better liner in them for the $$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Buggs Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Im not so sure about those Green ones Hans, After I got my head out of my ass I believe I broke my personal speed limit in the Blue ones yesterday:eplus2: Yooper, Im guessing Plugs= Liner?

Hopefully next week there will be more snow and I can get off my rock board and onto the new Coiler! Happy feet = happy carver. Glad the boots are working out.

scrapster Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Your rock board is a Kessler!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafcadio Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Thanks Mike. I hope to be in Beast mode Sunday, you gonna be around?? Probably not Sunday. I'll definitely be there Saturday, though. All day and night, if they're open late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafcadio Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Your rock board is a Kessler!? Yes, and my winter ride is a Bugatti Veyron, but I use very good snow tires. You'd be surprised what you can pick up in the Bomber classifieds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 There is really useful UPZ boot size chart on russian board, I believe pokkis already told about that. You're probably need to learn russian or post your feet length for a perfect sizing idea.I've folowed it and I'm pretty happy with the result. FLO liner wasn't really comfy, but I got a max size for a shell and I'm now using it with a Intuition liner. From Dan's site: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelsdvn Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Late to this thread but just purchased my own set of the UPZ RC10s. The longer of my feet measures 293mm and I typically wear a US 11.5 or 12 street shoe. I have a set of Scarpa T1 tele boots that were professionally fitted a few years ago. US 10 shell and a MP 28.5 heat moldable liner. I went with the 28.5 UPZ shell (UK 8.5/9/9.5 312mm) and as expected could not use the nice stock FLO liner. Popped in my molded Scarpa (Intuition) liners and the fit was like a glove. That previously posted chart from the Russian website is spot on.
