@kimchi do you get any of the foot pain the guy from TGR complains about with adidas boots and Now/Jones bindings? He says there's "really bad arch and forefoot pain from the plastic swaybar under the footbed's toe side of Now/Jones bindings and the boost soles being so soft."
Obviously like was said before, grain of salt with online reviewers. But still kinda curious.
No issues, but I have massive wide finnicky feet so I ride custom footbeds. But if anything I notice notably less foot pain while riding NOW / Jones, which is the main reason I've ridden them almost exclusively for going on 6 seasons now.

Nice, same boat. Wide forefoot and I have some molded Remind insoles. I figured we'd hear more about that issue if it was a common thing. Thanks!

How do you like the Reminds? Are they mushy or firmer underfoot? Thinking of grabbing a set for some new skate shoes.

I have the Destin Impacts (my feet are insanely flat) in my Acerras. They kinda feel both soft and firm depending what you're doing. They feel softer on heavy impact, but a little firmer when you're just cruising at lower speed. I think they'd be great for skating.

Can't remember having any issues riding Adidas boost sole boots with Now Drives. Can report after the holidays.
Good to hear!
He can take that salt with him. Rode perfect fine.

Anyone with Acerra boots and Burton supergrip 2.0?
Mine is slipping out if I don’t over tighten them and even then. Got the size small on my medium Drives with Acerra 9US.

The Supergrip 2.0 doesn’t work with my Acerras either, it just slips right off every run. That’s why I snagged those Jones auxtech straps for my new Select Pros instead of going the Burton route.
