Can intuition liners molded

For information on which volume is right for you, check out the Choosing a Liner Model page! Not recommended as the liners are heat sensitive and could cause damage to the foam gradually over time. Best not to keep re-heating unless necessary, like new shells or footbeds. Very carefully with a heat gun recommended to do at a shop , or try making a smaller rice bag and putting it on the specific area you wish to adjust.

Yes — if you can get close to the first notch, you should be able to mold on 2nd or 3rd notch to compress the foam making it easier to buckle after molding. To do this, pull the existing liner out of the shell. Stand with your bare foot inside the bare shell, and move your foot all the way forward so that your toes are touching the end.

Bend your knee and flex forward a bit so that you can slide your hand or even a pencil into the shell behind your leg. Also using duct tape on the inside of the shell to cover up where the cuff and lower meet, helps in a smooth entry. Try this with some silicon spray and they slide in no problem.

Provides just enough extra space and conforms well to your contours. I also tape the footbed to my foot and the toecap around my foot in the footbed as well just to keep it from shifting around and sliding forward. Your boot spreader is a sick idea and a great low price solution.

Good thinkings. Now people have a good reference thread for forming. I'll be there so PM me if you might head down.

I guess that is a blessing. Another good idea is to place duct tape over any rivets that may be sticking out on the inside of your boot. Originally Posted by bfree. Excellent tips, yoop, thanks.

Time to redo mine the proper way using a spreader. I had my wife hold my shells open while squeezing my foot in Join Date Sep Location tashigang Posts 1, Originally Posted by haydukelives.

If you have a way of making a spreader like yooper has, it's worth it. One went in close to perfect, one small crease. The left foot is all messed up, the foot seams go halfway up my ankle and i have two large creases.

I skied them, and they worked OK, but i'll probably reform. Next time I will make sure to: Keep the boots spread wide until you make sure you're all smoothed out. Try to avoid clamping the top buckle all they way. Now I can buckle the top all the way and still have wiggle room. If you have people holding the boots open, make sure they have gloves, as everything gets pretty warm when the liners go in. This should be a sticky-ish kind of post. Great pics, yoop - and great job for finding a use for marker twincams.

After years of cranking down on regular liners to get any sort of control, I was doing the same thing on the Ints, and it was just causing me unnecesary pain. A quick word on blocking ads. It looks like you are using an ad blocker.

I didn't feel the need to have the liners molded then, but, if I understand correctly, an intuition liner will not reach it's intended fit until it has been molded. I know that it would be better to have a perfectly fitting boot, but thanks to the wonderful, ingenius cable system I am experiencing only minimal lift in my heels and like i said, these boots perform better than i could have ever dreamed. However there is a tiny little scotch of room in my toes. Will this detrimentally affect the molding of my boots?

I have been gaining weight, and probably have a litlte growth left in me. Dec 4 AM 0 0. Photo: SnowBrains Your Intuition home fit kit came with a pair of thin black stockings. Put the rubber toe cap on your foot, then put on the black sock.
