Ski Boots How To Choose Resource in Q&A

How do you choose a ski boot? How should it fit to minimise discomfort during long days of skiing?

Lynn S replied: "It must not pinch! Any slight pinch will be a big pinch at the end of the day when your feet are swollen. It should not be loose around the ankles or feet as you need the firm support but if your toes are crunched or your circulation is compromised you'll be sorry!"

Ramses replied: "Get the guys in the shop to give you their full attention and tell them exactly how you feel with your foot in the thing. Don't let them wander off - you need expert advice."

nickytsamp replied: "Make sure there is about a centimetre between your toe and the end of the boot to allow for when you are pressing forward in a skiing position. Also keep in mind that you will probably be wearing thick socks when you ski."

Rhodri replied: "Go for a good brand like Nordica, they put more work into designing a comfortable boot."

What are some comfortable winter/ski boots *besides Uggs*? Best answer will be chosen.? Preferable available in England but they don't have to be, I just need inspiration. Priced up to 90 / $160?

ANGIECAKES replied: "Chinese Laundry flat boots are wonderful."

stinky_poo1 replied: "if you go to Target there are some nice and cheap winter boots that feel like you are walking on clouds they are so soft. you can get them in different colors too. i will get them soon."

What ski boot should I get? Help!!? I am having so much trouble choosing a ski boot. I have been in a Nordica Beast and it feels big and sloppy. I am 5'2" but weigh about 130 lbs. I teach skiing and want a boot that reacts. However, I have a size 22 D foot? Is it better to go tight like the Nordica Doberman and blow out the width or go for an Atomic or lower end boot with more volume?? What would be a good not too stiff and racy but high end boot for a wide flat foot in a 22?

What exactly about my response to this question goes against Y/A guidelines? Question: What is the worst injury you've ever had? Question Details: If you're lucky enough not to have had a bad injury, maybe you've had an extreme surgery. What was it? Deleted Answer: I was up Hiking on Crystal Mountain here in Washington State in the late Season to do some skiing with Friends. I made the mistake of not following my chosen ski run and i ended up hitting a couple trees in mid air at about 40 mph. I broke my Heel into 7 pieces, i totally shattered my Ankle, i fractured my Cheek and i broke my Nose. I also tore one of my Nostrils almost completely off and smashed my Lips really badly. Lost 2 Teeth and broke a couple Ribs. The worst part about that day amazingly enough (after having to be hauled off of the Mountain and driven 2 hours to a Hospital while bleeding) was having to have Tree Pitch scrubbed out of my Nose and Lips with a wire brush. Then of course came getting my Ski Boot off. They did not know that i had thoroughly damaged my Heel and Ankle yet although i knew it from the gritty rubbing i could feel. So they pulled my Ski Boot off. This made me pass out luckily. I ended up having to have 2 surgeries which ended up being even more painful than the accident. Got my Nose sewed back on and had my Heel screwed back together. Also had the majority of my Ankle taken out and replaced with part of my Pelvic Bone and Coral. I have 3 metal pins 4 screws and 2 metal plates in there. It took me a full year before i could walk semi normally again and it still hurts me but it is not bad enough not to be able to cope. Well they dont have a button i can push to put proper puncuation in sorry. LoL.

New boots? I used to wear Uggs but now everybody has them. I need a good, cut, fashionable pair of boots that are semi-cheap because I will be buying them myself with my own money. I live in a place where we get a lot of snow so they have to be weatherproof. I ski so they should be durable for hiking up the mountain. Please no rude answers. thanks. I will choose a best answer

car_craze_gal 1970 replied: "lace up ones with fur around the top search eBay for a good deal"

Scooby replied: "Timberlands"

emily replied: "the brand is called "ELLE" . I think theye look unique , but elegant and waterproof...."

imapo0po0head replied: "Maybe a pair of brown leather boots? Its clean cut, classic and people these days are so obsessed with imbellishment, they would even think of wearing a plain brown boots. If you want it to have embellishment, try finding a pair of studded or creatively embroidered. Good luck!"

la dolce VITA. replied: "flat, leather boots in either black, olive or chocolate. I think Urban Outfitters sells a few and so does Steven Madden for cheap. If you have a higher budget, Tara Subkoff sells REALLY nice ones."

ninanina replied: "You should definitely check out Timberland boots. I've tried on this pair of real suede knee high lace up Timberlands (and it's 100% waterproof! couldn't have asked for better since I also live in a location with huge amounts of snow in the winter). They come in black or brown and are really cute, very warm, and extremely comfortable. Hope that helped!"

DIN adjustment for Salomon S710 bindings? A friend and I are going to switch gear tomorrow (he boards, I ski) and I need to reset the DIN settings on my old race skis. The bindings are Salomon S710, he's never skied before, my boots are 24.5 ROSSIGNOL XENA X10 LADY WOMEN'S ALPINE SKI BOOT (06/07). I'd say he's about 5'5 or so. I'd really appreciate answers quickly and I'll choose a best answer.

evan a replied: "is he going to fit that boot or whats he going to do"

Jim W replied: "Go to a ski shop, get the weight and boot size DIN setting for your friends weight and ability. If I remember right the S710 is an old binding and may be out of compliance with the current DIN standards. I have some S 747's and some S 957 both are now out of compliance and no shop will adjust them. You are probably better off renting skiis and boots for him for the day, take wax for the skiis."

Willie D replied: "I hope he wears a size 6 1/2 shoe, otherwise he'll need different boots as well. Then you'll have to adjust more than just the DIN. You'll have to slide the binding as well. Height has nothing to do with DIN setting. Since you don't really know much about ski mechanics, he'd be better off renting for the day."

Possible psychological problem? I really have no idea what's wrong with me. I'm 16 and I hate to be around people and even talk to them. I hate being part of society and technology. When I say technology, I don't just mean t.v.s and computers, I mean anything not primitive. I do admit it's useful, but I hate using it and it makes me depressed to use it. I recently just bought a pair of skis and ski boots and I know that I won't be able to use them to next season but I realize that I hate buying things. It just tears me apart and it has been that way. I rather make my own things. I sometimes just think that I should have been born 1000 years ago. I know I'm advanced and not dumb because I finished 10th grade in a month with all 95's and above and got a scholarship to do college now. But even that doesn't make me happy. To me college is just an extension of high school learning pointless knowledge that doesn't help in surviving with my own two hands. I don't have girl friend because I choose not to have one. I see no need to have a relationship with anyone, and I do much better on my own. I rather have a torch than a flashlight, a tepee rather than a house, and a bow rather than a gun. I rather get rid of all modern technology in my lift and live primitively. Do I have some kind of physcological problem because everyone around me says I do.

Although I hate it, it's useful. Like advil for a headache, I hate using it and I hate modern drugs, but if I need some I'll take it.

fargoblizzards replied: "Not wanting to be apart of society and being anti social could be a problem but not disliking advanced technologies. If you don't like em you just don't. My mom hates computers and gets by just fine without them. The hating society I would look into why you don't and chew on that a bit."

hot_tamale962 replied: "go live off the land in the woods somewhere and see how you get along without technology remember take no medicine no food no shelter (make all of your own) take nothing but the clothes on your back and if you want to get real down to earth go naked and make your own clothes. have fun, by the way what are you doing on the computer anyway?"

Ms Cat replied: "Maybe you should join the Amish..... they have settlements all over the country."

Wally Jumblatt replied: "There is nothing wrong with you. The modern world is not all its cracked up to be. We are out of tune with nature and with no sense of real community that came with lack of technology and living in a village where everyone knew and accepted everyone else. The modern world is a cold place without that sense of an insular community- the quality of our communication has gone way down while the quantity has gone up. All this talking on internet and mobile phones at any time - Information overload. Communication always just for communications sake Education at school is there to show you how to conform to a dysfunctional society and world. It only rewards a certain type of knowledge - the retrieval of facts and memory, not creativeness."

cynthia.rangel replied: "i think thats kinda cool maybe everyone else just has psychological problems and you're the only normal one here"

invalidtraveler replied: "You don't have a psychological problem. You just have an inner craving for being one with nature, and one with the world. You should really read the book "The lost language of Plants" by Harrod Stephen Buhner. It is my favorite book. I feel the same way that you do. Society and technology seems so greedy and pointless. Have you considered a career in ethnobotany? Ethnobotanists live in primitive cultures, such as in the Amazon rainforest, and study the way that the primitive people use plants for drugs and medicines. It's amazing. You aren't alone. I know many people who wish that technology was non-existant, and that the world was healed and whole again. There is so much destruction and wasting of resources, for what? So we can drive fancy cars and get fat eating McDonald's? It just seems like life should be so much better then that. That isn't what life is all about. The native Americans were very connected with mother earth. They were connected with plants and animals and trees. They believed that everything had a spirit, and they paid respect to everything that they killed. They were also very connected to each other. People in today's societies are very self-centered. It's because we disconnect ourselves from nature. We build huge buildings and seclude ourselves from the environment. People who actually care about the environment are few and far between. No, I wouldn't say that you have a psychological problem. I would say that you are far more advanced than most people. Instead of hating the world for being like it is, follow you chosen path and change the world! If you have always had these feelings, it is hard for me to believe that they are for nothing. You have a calling in life, just like we all do. Follow it. Change the world. Do something great and make the history books. Follow your heart and don't let anyone tell you that you are crazy. Because you are more right than they are. Good luck!"
