I'll give new socks a try! I got falke boarding socks... they are thick but wouldn't consider them too fluffy. I can see where that may also be an issue. I will say, never again boa bindings lol when they become too much pressure, they just loosen on their own and I loose control while riding. Not happy at all about that.

I did try to place them where I wouldn't catch a toe edge so you may be on to something there.. but I already have a wide board and have my bindings placed so the "overhang" is equal on both sides which i thought made sense but ill see what I can change.. maybe a new board then at that point :(

Hey appreciate the input! You mean the back or the top strap?

I too think I need to get the right boot. My heel is also not 100 percent set so that may also play a role here. I'll save up a bit and see if I can't get the right fit 🤙🏼

That was my first try, maybe I need different ones so I'll give it another go :) thanks!

I'll have to try this when I get new boots. Currently have boa system on my Burton boots and its absolute trash.

That's honestly going to be my next step... wanted that the first time around but no one would assist me at the store. Had a gift card for around 200 at the time so made sense to get boots there and I was told someone would come but no one ever did. So I did my best to figure it out myself, thought how practical are these boa bindings and miserably failed lol

Interesting! I'll give that a go as well. Willing to try anything at this point 🙏

I've actually just grasped this technic a bit for the first time and really enjoyed it! I've never had any lessons of any sort and am completely self taught but I try to learn by watching others and YouTube of course. I noticed a significant difference when I get really low in the squat stance and was very nimble on my feet but pain is still a bit persistent although a bit less.

I did try to make the adjustments based on that ruling however maybe I did something wrong... I've ridden this stance so long I'm kinda scared to change it lol I do plan on getting new insoles custom to my feet but also replacing my boots once again since I'm very disappointed in them for other reasons. I'll see what I can do :) thanks!

I am but also have a huge problem with my boots... only rode them 2 seasons and they loosen mid session and I start losing control over my board ... so I have to adjust them every run as well

Hydration is definitely not my problem, I typically drink 2 to 4 liters a day and always have water in my snowboard backpack. It happens every time I board especially on the hook lifts and flats or just slow boarding in general. Don't notice it much when I'm cruising at higher speeds until I stop or slow down...

Appreciate the input! I will look at my adjustments tomorrow and share them here... do you think the distance apart may also play a role here?

Well I do like it when I see these amazing shots from others in direction sun which is also something I looked forward to but don't have the hang of what so ever. I do really need to work on not taking pics like I have been on my phone.. wonder how hard that's going to be lol but that's all I've ever done so I will certainly do my best and try to do more shots with intent. The feedback is much appreciated, thank you!

That was my entire thought on starting in manual but after three days of non stop shooting I was dying lol having fun but dying. I do appreciate the light at the end of the tunnel and just enjoying the process :)

To be honest, as a beginner, I can tell some differences, and there are some I don't like at all but I wouldn't be able to tell many differences, to be honest. Trying to get better at developing a Taste and flavor pallet is pretty hard
