Full tilt wear n tear problem

[nuffsaid]

so i have last years booters and i love them. theonly problem is that in the past week i noticed that the toe of my boot is lifting up in my marker griffons and therefore causing a little wiggle room between my boot and binding. i took them to a shop thinking that my bindings were loose but they said that the pastic on the bottom of the toe of my full tilts had worn down causing the wiggle room. i walk normally and dont scuff my boots so i cannot believe my full tilts have worn down to the point that i cannot ski in them. please let me know if anyone has any suggestions on what i could do

get a good tech to install some vibram toe pieces.

i believe the jester/griffion and fulltilts do that real easy cause my and my brother have that problem

i never heard of this happening before

 

[Leafman]

i had that problem, except i bent my toe piece up in my griffon

 

[daveycockett]

i have the booters and i dont have any problems like this

 

[YooperSteeze]

It is from something called "walking"

 

[nuffsaid]

yea but i dont rub my boots on pavement. like it shudnt happen that quickly

 

[charmander]

you shouldnt walk in your boots on pavement at all.

Some boots wear down much, much faster than others though. I used to have some Rossi Softs that would need the heel piece replaced almost every month. I've had my SPK's for 2.5 seasons now, and those aren't worn at all. No idea why.

if you take a look on the full tilt boots website you can get some new replacements for that problem.

There you can take a look and order from shopatron.

Get a little piece of rubber about the size of the amount of wiggle you have, put it on your binding, step on it and click in. Problem salved.........................

There is a free warranty AFD available from Marker that will fix this

problem. It is common on most Dalbello and Full Tilt boots and it not

the result of walking around etc.

^ Yea I have heard problems about dalbellos and giffons/ jester but I have no problems with my rampages and griffons.
