ok so i have a little boot problem....i have salomon 1080 foils in a size 27(9 USA) and they fit perfect length wise as from back of heel to toe of boot....I have them tightened really tight but not tight enough to cut my circulation off....but when i try to ollie or butter my heel lifts off the bottom of the boot...its like my ankle is big enough for the size of my foot
i need help and im not sure how to fix it
thanks ns'ers

you could go to your shop and tell them the problem. most shops have these foam "L" pads that are sticky that can stick to your liner above your ankle. it will put pressure and take up some volume back there. it helped with mine

fix it with a 3 buckle boot?  or try to micro-adjust and play with the middle 2 buckles.  Also see a bootfitter, maybe they could raise your heel so it wont lift. 

You could also try adding another footbed to raise up your whole foot.
