You'll need a strap around those to keep them from falling out. All the foam I've tried breaks down and compacts after a bit, you'll have to make a lot of em.

Most shin bang is from landing backseat and having your muscles/tendons/whatever in your shin be strained, not from impact on your shins, so that might help a little bit, but I don't think it will fix the root of the problem.

Or you could use some Booster straps, possibly the most underrated ski invention ever.

what if you just tightened your boots more so there is no gap. i were lange racing boots and never get shin bang cause i make sure there is no play between my boot and my leg. sweet idea though.

booster straps are only 30 bucks and they are so worth it, you gotta replace your power strap for them though, that is key.

a bootfitter also told me to put the regular power strap underneath the plastic, around your liner, before you do up your buckles. this helps keep the back of the boot moving with your leg when you flex, rather than just the tongue pressing forward .

noobzor, that is basically what it is doing, making the boots fit tighter around the shin and calf while also providing soft cushy comfort.

Never in all 7 years ive been skiing have i ever gotten shin bang from actually landing hard and banging my shin. You get shin bang from landing backseat. Like someone stated above.

Same. I've been skiing 14 years, and the only time I've had shin problems was from backseat skiing/landings, which caused really bad shin pains.

ive gotten alot of emails asking its not working its not working...how come..what do i have to do..the answer is yes you have to write no bang on them beaucse of the measurments of the foam writing No Bang! on them softens up certain parts of the foam pad witch makes it work WELL with your shins!! great chrsitams giftt as welll

Well maybe if he had just boughten propor fitting boots instead of SPK's because they're SPK's he'd be happier. When the boot is done up and it fits well, it should be tight on your shin, so I don't see where chunks of foam would fit in there. If a boot is loose enough for foam to fit in there, there is no way it's providing the propor support.
