Hey guys,

I know most people don' t ride boots however has anyone know how to stop boot burn. I was going to try detergent like wakeboards do. Any advise would be great.

BTW: no! wearing straps is not an option so don't suggest it!!!!!!!!!

Cheers

i don't have this problem however when i had ultras i did, there are a few options. 1 wrap ur leg in sticky tape where you get the burn(yes normal clear sticky tape) 2 just put some sunscreen where it gets burn (this is the easiest) or 3 just man up and take it.

hey i have a pair of obrians. I am not riding as much as i used to now. So after a few hours ridign my hells start bleeding a bit. I am not that soft, it just makes riding really uncomfortable. I don't really have much cash to splash on a new pair atm. Cheers for the adivise tho.

For future reference, are the union LF any good?
