I went through this problem as well, feet would always slip out, I have been wearing heal straps for a while and am now just taking the plunge and getting a pair of synergy boots and LF concept grind as soon as i get some extra cash......


I always thought you had to be a sick rider to get boots, but was recently told that it can come down to preference. I took some for a demo (pair of synergies) and WOW, so comfy........ It did feel a little strange under my feet, but I really think I am going to like it...

Give boots a try for sure, see what you think.....

1. Yes they are big for their sizings. I suggest you try some on if you can to be sure.

2. Yes they can stretch but if you are looking at the Synergy's they are lace up anyway so shouldn't be an issue.

3. Err, there are things I could say but won't.

the ronix bindings are way lighter now days

You've got the Sync's done up too tight. Its a common mistake I hear about and I did it too at the start, but they are so much more comfortable than anything else I have tried, now that I have them set loose.
Try them again, wet them and do them up tight so they are contacting as much as your foot as possible, then loosen them off until you can get your feet in them quickly and easily, tie a knot behind the adjuster and go ride for a while, see if that changes your mind.

Great advise I was getting ready to ditch these until i read this and tried it today now they're perfect!!

Just thought I'd let the poster know - i took the plunge and got a pair of synergies and have not looked back - better in everyway, even the extra bit of hurt when you catch a rail is still better.

do it - you wont regret it
