Best boots to stop heel lift?

Stealtheldorado 22 February 2005 01:15:54
 I've been riding my Northwave boots for about six seasons now, and
they've about had it. No matter how tight I lace them, my heel still
lifts up. I'd love to hear from riders who have found a good boot that
keeps your heels down. Or if you've a good trick for old boots, let me
know. I'm hoping to catch the end of season sales in late March.

Thanks,

Stealth Eldorado

I put my old orthodics in mine. They raise my heel about 1/2 inch, and now I
have no noticeable heel movement. Retail footbeds might do similarly.

 i also note that the CAP STRAP on the latest burton bindings work to keep
the heel anchored.

 Burton SL/7 and the Cartel or Carbon60 bindings are the dream team. It's
like you had your heels glued to the boot. Tested it while Boarderweek 2004
in Val Thorens, France. Sadly, it's out of my price range with 350 Euro for
the boot plus the same for the binding.

 You might want to check Tongar for boot adjustment options.

I recently saw DC boots with a pump mechanism for the liner. Anyone
here use those? Do they hold your heel down? I think fit is always YMMV,
but it seems like a promising idea.

I recently stuck bits of adhesive rubber padding to the liner of my Nitro boots,
and it reduced heel lift, but didn't stop it.

I just added the optional toe ramp (Gas Pedal?) to my front Burton Custom
binding, hoping that tilting the binding back slightly will make up for a little
heel lift. Not sure that's the right approach though...

I would agree that's worth a try. You can find them in the store for
$15-20 a pair. I know because I've used them for other sports....

also, I want to know if the OP has J-bars in his boots. that usually
helps any sliding around or movement of the liner. I'm not sure if the
liner is just so packed out that his heel moves around anyway, but if
you have J-bars available then use 'em.
