Heel problems

[BusyJohnSohn]

i keep ruining my heels everytime i land. Any tips?

 

[crooks]

yeah sometimes my heels hurt when i land switch, im not sure wat to do either

 

[skiwoj]

u might not be landing centered enough, if i land just a tiny bit backseat then my heels usually hurt

thinkin of customizing my liners with some foam or neoprene under the heal. I got the same problem. Snowboard boots now have air bubbles steeze, we aint got sheet.

 

[BusyJohnSohn]

what about putting a piece of foam in my sock

 

[gopher_guts]

or you could bubble wrap your feet. if you put it on the liner tho you wont have to change it every time you ride.

wouldnt it pop

i used to have that problem too. it still happens to me if i land even a little backseat. the trick is to get used to landing while leaning slightly forward. don't lean back too far when landing switch or you might fuck yourself up. once you learn how to land like that, even flat landings don't hurt anymore.

If you have the teneighty boot i have the same problem. heres my advice... get a knew boot. look at lange freestyle, nordica has a freestyle beast 10 next year, dalbello's rampage series. better fits in the ankles. i haven't tried the SPK for next year but its suppose to be sick.
