Take your helmet off and but stickers on your beanie, true Chad move.
Dude, the booster under the shell really is the shit! I’ve done all these upgrades either before or after this video, and I agree wholeheartedly on ALL of them. My tip isn’t gear related, but kind of. Skip buckling the 2nd buckle right over your foot bone. It causes pain if too tight and very little upside if it’s just right. I skip it and it allows me to move my toes better inside the boot. Cuff tightness is what matters the most to me.
Super useful video, I wish you'd posted it before the holidays tho. Also, you should do a series on gear, like "What to look for in a helmet" or backpack or a jacket or a boot

Rubber straps - one works, two ideal. Helps carry the skis, or just strap anything to anything in the field. Costs like $6 per.
perfect editing i won my first freeski comp because of your videos they helped me add some great style to my rail game Ps thanks yans
My favorite upgrade are the custom insoles. Got myself a pair of thoses last year, and what a difference.
Got myself a custom sole a few weeks ago and it’s super comfortable, great video as always 👍
I just siscovered this channel recently, and i gotta say, best thing EVER, such cool guy you are! Greetings from Croatia
Great vid clicked straight away EDIT thx for the heart love your vids

Just got my ski kit all set up after skiing about 14 trips total to stop spending money on rentals. Without the ski shop employee asking to buy insoles. I immediately felt uncomfortable in the stock ski boot insoles. Custom insoles do make all the difference! Better arch support helps relieve any pressure points that you feel in the boot prior to.
No. 6 vastly improved my skiing style! You wouldn't believe how much difference it makes!
This vid is a gem
Oooh booster straps!!! Need to look into those . Deffo on the footbeds - essential
I love your videos you are so inspirational
Custom foam injected boot liners (and soles of course) was a huge gamechanger for me. The best regular liners don't come close. Not good for jibbers or touring perhaps but absolutely amazing for anything else. Charging off piste, stomping landings, charging carves through anything, ski racing. Turns a good skier in to a great skier with strong style. Try it!
I did all these upgrades and they're all really game changers !
More great tips from Jens! Got most of these but the edge tuner is going to be the next move!
Custom footbeds are the best skiing upgrade you'll ever do
I've heard of this velcro thing you can stick on the outside part on the backside of your inner ski shoe. It makes you leen forward more
Enjoying the tons of snow in the northern alps rn? Great vid as always!
A just added gripwalk tread to my boots, excited to try em out.
Subbed (finally) thought I already was. Hi from NZ, skis hung up for the summer now. Happy winter up tharr!
Got myself a pair of extrem skis. Best upgrade ever 🇸🇪
Awesome gear tips. :-) Thanks buddy!
Really like my footbalance custom soles. Gave a much better fit for my ski boot than the standard one
I watch these videos eve tho im a snowboarder... Tons of your hacks are also usefull to us so thank you...also i just love winter sports and seeing ppl send the pow
Slapped on some booster straps becuase of this video, the amount of difference it makes is insane
Not later then today I have seen one of such edge shaper in action in our local shopping centre. Nice gear indeed! And wool sox, man, good selection!
Useful video ! Your videos are great !
the booster strap 100% I have it on my racing boots amazing
Dry Guy Boot Gloves are great for powder, especially on really cold days. At least a 10f temp bump. The only negative thing is they use a plastic pass through loop for the strap that can break if impacted. Last set I bought the loop broke on the 3rd day of use. I found a metal loop on line from some hardware supplier and replaced the plastic ones. Can't get them to fail now even if I wanted to.
Which booster strap do you have(Standard, Expert or World cup)? @Stomp It Tutorials
My best upgrade so far were customized ski boots it is way more comfortable while you have the same or even better controul over your ski
3:03 Jens - Thats weird it feels like hmm what’s the word I’m looking for ohh JELLY BEANS” Im dead 😂😂😂
MAN I looove your video's!!! The first time I went skiing I hated it. My gf made me.. I was so pissed of. NOW I can't get enough of it. I am trying to learn as much as possible and you are one HELL of a teacher! "That's what my gaming world looks like". Spot on! :D And your tricks.. I always look so stupid when I try it. When you do it, you look like you don't even have to put any effort into it! :' )
I actually used a pair of insoles from my hockey skates, they are moulded to my feet, use them in my ski boots. Feet feel great after a full day
I have to say, synthetic stocks are dwindling in popularity but I stand firm in my preference of them over merino. I sweat a lot and prefer the dryness of synthetic over merino. Perhaps an upgrade such as a product that deals with stinky shoes?
Regarding boots you mention that booster strap was on its 3rd boot - just wondering how often you change boots? Could you do a video on boots, how often to change them, how do you know it's time to change? Reasons to upgrade etc? I plan to buy boots next year as I am relatively new to skiing, for now I'm renting, can footbeds go in any boot? Can I get a footbed made and use it in rented boots or are they boot specific ?
Thank you for this video. I swapped out my straps with Boosters. I had to drill out the rivets on my Fischer Ranger Walks, then pop rivet them back in. Took some time but looking forward to it this week because I get shin bang from being a little too aggressive for the old guy. What brand edge tuner do you prefer? Simplest?
Can you make a video about choosing equipments? Buying ski’s etc.
Awesome stuff 👌👌
And PS custom insoles are an absolute must for everyone!!! they support your foot and make sure you whole leg is in the correct position also much more comfortable.

They are also not cheap lol. $150 for a custom one here in the USA, state of Pennsylvania
Excellent video! Are the boots you have with the new straps Salomon X Pro 100’s? If so, do you recommend them?
Best ski videos! Everytime a pleasure to watch your videos. Btw youre jacket is realy sick! Where is it from?
Boosterstraps andand these custom foot things for life!
Got the same insoles when I got my scarpa maestrale rs. will consider using booster straps too! :) Powder baskets are a must for ski touring anyways. just got a new goggle from naked optics with a cat 1 and cat 2 lens and magnetic snap system for less than 100eur! :D
Having a good backpack that lets you put your skis, poles, ice pick, etc. It will change your life and if you start doing backcountry skiing, well you can put all your safety avalanche kit in it
I have been skiing recreationally since I was nine and I kinda want to really get into it and improve do you have any tips
Sidas footbeds have a rounded, rockered heel which causes the weight on your foot to shift inside the boot.
Hello, could you please explain how much I should de-tune the edges under the bindings and what kind of wax should be done for park skis?
I just purchased an Anon M4 Toric Sonar Green.
Which lenses do you use? I'm looking for an upgrade and i really like the color of your lens
Hey can you make a video about some exercise for knees because I know a lot of people get injured because they don't have got the training

If you dont have a fairly active lifestyle you can do series of lunges and squads everyday in the morning and evening. This will maintain and improve most of the vital muscle groups that endure all of the work when you go ski.
Wow one of ur best vid
Getting custom soles and molding my liners is the best decision I have made in a long time, they are very well worth the price.

Upgrade Baby!
I use my original straps inside the shell. Im riding a Full Tilt Classic. Is the boosterstrap worth the upgrade?
Hi Mate, Any suggestions on what to do if you have a riveted strap to your boots? I bought booster straps but cant take my old strap off. cheers
Could you make a video on how to hide blemishes and scratches on skis?
Do a ski boot vid(flex,kind,how to size and fit)!!!
Where to buy the booster strap? Would love to have them!
Which version of the booster strap are you using?
RainX makes an anti-fog spray for your car windshield that works fantastic on ski goggles.
Thanks your I like Sir
I got goggles that change colour based on how much ch light. Never skiing regular googles again. Its a massive benefit.
Do you use the expert/race straps or the WC? I'm 85kgs/190lbs advnaced skier on the more aggressive side which one would you recommend? Thank you.
Jens, which kind of booster strap do you recommend? I'm currently an intermediate skier just starting to hit jumps and bumps...
Great vid as always! :) About nr 3, what is your opinion on photochromatic lenses? (They maybe generally are too expensive to be a part in this video though)
@davnape14
5 жыл бұрын
The thing with photochromatic lenses is that they take a while to shade. They also don't tend to give as much contrast as regulars and if you scratch them they might stop working. It happened to me once and I never bought them again

Even when it's overcast weather, there is still enough UV light to keep the lens dark. The concept sounds cool, but in practice it really is a very poor solution.

I have been running a Salomon photochromic lens for 2 seasons now and I love it. Yes, it's a grey tint so not as much contrast as a coloured lens, but not having to swap is great. I ski in British Columbia, in and out of trees and open bowls/faces in sunshine. I don't notice any lag. I didn't even notice I was skiing directly into the sun until I looked at the GoPro footage later! The only time they're not ideal is in super low flat light on the cloudiest days. My two cents! Cheers!

Hi Jens, what kind of goggles do you wear?

Which helmet and goggle are you using?
Is it the expert/racer booster that you use?
Nice vid
What Skis are in this vid( with yellow Sides ? If they ary Salomon Quest (or qst 92 then I have the Same ones⛷️
What ski goggles do you use, i see that they are atomic but which model?
👏🏻👍🏼 Bra tips
Where did you buy the powder baskets
How do you do a 1° base angle with this tool? I have a tool from 87-90° angle. I wonder how i can do the base? With the 90°?
00:00 🎿 Upgrading to powder baskets for ski poles prevents them from sinking in deep powder, a cheap upgrade at $10. 00:38 🥾 Booster straps offer a tighter ski boot top, enhancing control; installing them involves measuring, cutting, and securing the strap. 01:47 🌈 Opt for all-weather lenses for goggles that work across various conditions, enhancing visibility without being too dark. 02:19 🛠 Edge tuners, around $40, allow adjusting ski edge angles; recommended setting: 89 degrees side angle and one degree base angle. 02:56 👣 Swap synthetic ski socks for wool ones for warmth, reduced odor, and improved comfort; invest in custom footpads or insoles for better support and warmth.
Why get the weather lens can someone explain? Btw love your videos

I’ve skied days where I can literally not see my hand outstretched in front of my face from 8-10 am, heavy snow but with good visibility from 10-1 and completely blue skies with no wind from 1-3. Not having to run back to the car to switch lenses during the day would have been really nice. A complete comfort feature, hell most people only have one goggle with one lens. But that is only a handful of days out of ~100.
I have probem with glasses on bad visibility conditions, what kind protection for eyes do you recomend? Anythig in colors make me do not see.
Anytips for me? im trying to ollie or butter (well i got my skis today) but my calfs hurt like a mf when leaning back to do ollie, nollie is somewhat okay..
Injinji Merino Wool toe (chicken) socks on Amazon. Easier to splay toes for balance.
Goggle wiper ring!
Do you use the expert or wc booster? (Two or three layers)
Were do you shop your goggles
Best upgrade take off pole straps
Am I the only one to notice how great the Thumbnail actaually is? °~°
