Boots issue


My feet hurt the last 3 days snowboarding. Maybe I should get some new boots? I have 3 year old Burton motos that I've used for probably used 30 days over three years. Or could it be that I haven't ridden since one day last season...?

sounds like the muscles in your feet haven't been worked in a while. it could also be that your bindings are just barely too tight, try moving back one click with the main strap and see if that helps provided it doesn't feel too loose.

Thanks for the help. I'll try keeping my straps a bit looser at Big Bear next week (I think). It would be good to figure this out before I go to Mammoth for a week in January.

I just got some Salomon Maori's. They are much more comfortable and the lacing system works well.
