Re: The boot thread






They could work or help, but these used to exist on the market back in the 90s and went away.

Not a substitute for going to a shop and getting some proper boot fitting done to eliminate your heel lift.


I totally get that, but you're speaking from a perpective of someone that likely ...

Re: The boot thread



For those of you that do some boot fitting to reduce heel lift, has anyone tried the Patriot liner sleeve? If so, thoughts?

Re: The boot thread

Honestly I was wondering the same thing. Interesting concept, but would probably need some tweaking in design to actually be functional for varying foot shapes, sizes, etc. It came across my Facebook feed, likely because I was Google searching for boot fitting materials.

Re: The Wax and Tune Ya Goon Thread


I've heard of wonky edges from them before, and detuned contact points, but apparently this is a thing on some boards. Pretty wild, it's like they completely forgot to touch the edges at the factory

Wouldn't this be a warranty issue? If they ...

Re: The Wax and Tune Ya Goon Thread


.
Heel edge right inline with the front inserts.


I wish you the best, but I’m saying without you being an experienced tech, and already putting in the wrong epoxy and where it is, heel edge at inserts.

I would not anticipate or expect any repair to hold for long.

Doesn’t mean you might ...

Re: The Wax and Tune Ya Goon Thread






It’s gonna need to come out, I can’t say I have any best advice on how to do that without having it in my hands and looking at it.

Yeah, unfortunately that kinda looks perma fucked.


Hopefully not. I did get it opened back up and scraped out what I could from ...

Re: The Wax and Tune Ya Goon Thread






It’s 100% because you didn’t use the right epoxy. With what you’re describing I’d anticipate the fix will fail within a few days. You need Marine Grade Flexible or else it will crack and break inside and then fail.

The dead spot is the epoxy you used not flexing.

G-Flex is what you need ...

Re: The Wax and Tune Ya Goon Thread



Fixed a small edge to sidewall delam on my Capita Outsiders. About 2 inches in length. Heel edge right inline with the front inserts. Epoxy, clamp, clean up excess, etc.

Today I went to ride it and the board felt weird on heel edge. Almost as if something was catching right in that area. Edge ...
