ive been having problems with my boots. my dad bought them a half size too big cuz he wants me to use them next year too. k well my foots done growing and the toe is really wide. my foot moves around like crazy in them which is comfortable but i dont think it helps me when i jib. but thats my question, is it worth spending all that money for a new boot ( maybe spk or rampage) cause it will help me out, or will it not make a whole big of a difference?

My boots now feel loose too. They were hella tight and killed my feet when I got them back in November. But now they always feel loose and I feel as if I have lost control and power on my turns.

a well fit boot makes all the difference man, i have old 1080's and the padding is beat to shit so they dont fit well anymore. to fix this i usually throw on some ankle socks over my ski socks making the fit snug again, which helps sooo much. as for buying new boots, try something like this first

yeah there are a bunch of things that can save money, try that ankle thing or there are some things u can have done to decrease the inside a lil, i think, better than spending 400 or 500 bucks on new boots
