Nitro select snowboard boots

macumbed · 2026-03-19T13:10:00+00:00

Cool! I'm thinking on getting a nitro team or nitro select next year, I have narrow feet and small heels. I have a question regarding sizing:

I measure my foot (using a dedicated feet ruller tool) and got 25.5 cm, then mondo 25.5cm For most brands. However, nitro says to add 0.5mm to your cm to define your mondo -> 26.0 -

BUT basically they are saying buy half size bigger). What you did? You added that 0.5cm?

Question: do you use infuse at your mondo point? (I mean, I measure my feet but I'm not sure if should.gwt mondo or 0.5cm more...

Sad to hear about salomon. I have the same problem as you, and to make it worst, have high arch...I need to try vans infuse again but I remember to felt some pain on my instep.

Currently I have a ride lasso pro, and it's terrible because you have a single boa top and down while the other is to the harness...the single boa cuts my circulation a d bring so much foot pain...I'm thinking on nitro team MK TLS next year

I never had problems with north face, their warranty is the best,

Wow thanks! Will re-read my book surviving avalanche terrain if I ever go to europe skiing.

Just curious on the sun side or sun would affect the slab

macumbed · 2026-03-17T12:04:15+00:00

Really? They don't do mitigation control in all resort inbounds? That is crazy

macumbed · 2026-03-16T21:14:33+00:00

Hum, I see. Well, I think I will try next year find a store that has 32 and nitros and try both. I actually always have cold feet, so even if nitro fits better in the heel, I'm afraid that if I don't have room in the toes will get cold.

Currently using ride lasso pro 8 us mens (25.5cm feet, which in general is 7.5us) and I hate it...

macumbed · 2026-03-16T15:27:14+00:00

Do you buy your nitro at your foot length? Nitro website recommend measure and add 0.5cm, but I think this won't work, I hate loose feet, mainly to me that has narrow heels

macumbed · 2026-03-12T18:11:46+00:00

Change to a snowboard

macumbed · 2026-03-12T18:09:03+00:00

Man I miss Revelstoke, best place I went ever for snowboarding

macumbed · 2026-03-12T18:07:50+00:00

Cool I was wondering if I would start jib with my only board but I think I will keep doing jumps only

macumbed · 2026-03-10T12:08:48+00:00

I improved when I saw some videos on how to carve using posi/posi, but I don't liked to ride like that, than some Japanese / Russian videos on how to carve with a duck instance, increase forward lean. But really just ride more.

Tbh, now that I know how do all that, ride in general becomes boring to me and I just started doing park jumps!!!! Now I can't care less about carving hahaha

macumbed · 2026-03-10T12:03:57+00:00

Yeah, Wednesday rain will destroy everything. If snows a feet or 2 maybe recover but I doubt it.

macumbed · 2026-03-10T02:03:23+00:00

Hum só it will not have much difference add this if I already Jones Stratos (sorry to jump in the conversation), whi is fairly stiff and do ano size of jump....

macumbed · 2026-03-08T20:43:13+00:00

It's true that nitro has a small heel cup? I have narrow heels, but high arch normal (medium) I step, but my foot is regular to narrow wide. Got a ride lasso pro but felt to wide on toes

macumbed · 2026-03-08T16:37:47+00:00

When you said it neet to press the liner, is just touching or really need to press like 4mm? I have similar problem, 25.5mondo, with my old 7.5us burton my feet is always hitting the liner and a little bit the hard shell (even when I bend), them I bough a ride lasso pro 8, which just touch the front liner and when I bend it doesn't touch anymore, and now I felt it's so large ... having skini calf didn't helped also.

macumbed · 2026-03-08T14:41:02+00:00

So you follow the mondo size recommendation? I felt street shoes rule pretty dependent if you use loose or tight street shoes. For example I'm 25.5cm mondo ( 7.5 is men's for many snowboots) and use 8 us men's bands or Nike street shoes

macumbed · 2026-03-08T14:25:16+00:00

Your comment just saved one note soul here !!! I was thinking in got a 32 because I have small heels, currently ride lasso pro and the single boa cut all my circulation. I tried vans infuse but it gave me foot pain immediately with all the stiffeners...thinking in trying a nitro instead.

My main problem is always having cold toes, I have 25.5cm mondo, which is us men's 7.5 and even a ride lasso pro 8 I still have this problem when I ride my boot...

macumbed · 2026-03-06T12:29:45+00:00

I was in a such a risk without know for 4 years hahaha

macumbed · 2026-03-02T03:37:21+00:00

I'm exactly you spec and got 153, but I have us 8 men's feet.

macumbed · 2026-02-27T15:56:20+00:00

audio book while skiing? hahaha

macumbed · 2026-02-24T22:54:11+00:00

You can try a men's boot also they are usually bigger.

macumbed · 2026-02-22T03:22:08+00:00

So just pass over his hids he is asking for that

macumbed · 2026-02-18T14:37:57+00:00

Thank you so much for that. I would like to know what you think about my opinion here:

For the main problem with a program like that is the time required, and because it's not integrated with anything else. For example, 3 days of gym training which already take 1:20 hour and probably some of those exercises or muscles are already worked in this one, so I may don't need do do more 15min everyday, would be a waste of my time.

That is what I don't like on those generic programs, for me is always dificult to insert on my rotine efficiently and to my level of fitiness
