Thanks Robert! Enjoy the skiing!

I am surprised you missed one of the easiest and most cost effective solutions to cold toes… chemical foot warmers. It takes a little practice to stick the warmers above the toes so they don’t bunch up. You can regulate the rate of the chemical reaction by increasing or decreasing oxygen inside the boot. It is another way that loosening buckles helps keep your feet warm. Don’t forget to remove the warmers when you pull off your boots, otherwise they swell and turn to concrete. Great video, BTW.

Great videos. Fun and informative

Boot manufacturers should give you the availability to purchase a second pair of liners for the model you buy. Alternate to keep them dry!

@Miles Ben yea, been watching on flixzone for months myself =)

What I normally do (cause my boots are a bit small on my legs cause I have small feet but big calves) I do the normal thing and pop the straps as soon as I’m down the run relieving pressure from my feet then strapping them back down when I get up the lift

Can you maybe make A tutorial of How you can find The perfect length of kids skiis? My children are getting skiis for christmas and I noticed that lot of skiis are The same size but different lenght.

Your boot videos are great, have you tought of doing some ski reviews?

Thanks! Would love to do some ski reviews. My biggest challenge would be time, would be fun though..

Wonderful and educational. Regarding the softening of the hard plastic tongue with the Dremel, your anatomic foot diagram suggested that it is the lateral(outside part of the tongue) you want to soften. I couldn't tell for sure but I thought you had a right foot liner which meant you were softening the inside. Can you clarify this please? Also I have a ski gear boot warmer, so can I use it to dry out the liners after skiing without taking them out of the boot or should I still remove them? Thanks

Hi Armin, in regards to softening the plastic over the top of the foot, the area is more on the medial side (inner side) or over where the main blood flow is across this part of your foot. Relieving a bit of pressure here can make a world of difference. I would still recommend taking the liners out every few days to dry as moisture will also sit in between the liner and the plastic shell. If you can air dry this out, it will keep the liners in good condition for longer and keep them smelling fresher. :)

I hacked my foot off. Do you know where I can buy a new one?

So do you prefer a good wool ski sock like you have or a big bulky and thick sock?

Hi mate, no 100% I prefer and encourage thin wool ski socks. Thinner the better usually, but some shin and toe and heel padding can be ok depending on the amount. I would say any of the ultralights are the best option for fit and warmth.

thanks for your very helpfull videos. if u dont mind, ill translate your videos into russian language and public it on my channel.

Quick question. I have wide feet and already had my Atomic Magna boots stretched once. They still feel too tight and hurt my feet for the first hour or so, then they become OK.I am going to have another go at making them a tiny bit wider but my question is...can this affect my achilles heel as it hurts like crazy after a session of skiing? Or is this to do with something else at all? Many thanks.

Hey Tomasz, the width up front shouldnt have too much affect on your achilles. It sounds like it may be a stance issue. Definitely have a go at making your cuff more upright to relieve some pressure on your forward lean. Also for width pressure, see how you go with a different sock combination and even try warming your liner before a ski to see if there is any improvement. If not, go for a bit more width. Cheers :)

Patriot Footbeds Many thanks for your reply. Really appreciate it.

Battery powered toe warmers.

Old ski patroller trick - apply "women" deodorant to your feet - why women - higher concentration of Aluminum Zirconium Octachlorohydrex GLY ~ 16.4 % and up, which blocks perspiration into the boot - hence rendering feet dry. Dry free - warm feet :)

I used to do this for years however it mucks up your merino wool with aluminum residue. Not a bad tip, just messy on the socks.
