Look at my fucking shins

So I got back from a weekend of skiing, took off my ski socks and my skin came with them. It looks like the hairs are getting ripped out, which seems to be a pretty common problem. I didnt have this problem at all last year, and after day 1 of skiing my shins were fine, but on sunday they got fucked up. I have them same boots as last year (full tilts) just with a stiffer tongue this year, but I cant see how that would make a difference, and I wear good ski socks too, again same ones as last year. Sorry for the shitty pic, I dont have a good camera anymore, but I'm sure you get the point

How does one remedy this issue. Shaving legs? (there isnt much hair left to shave right now anyway), duct tape? Body glide?

It didnt hurt at all during the day skiing, I only realized it when I got home and took the socks off.

And before anyone says it, I know there are threads on this topic, but I searchbarred and couldnt really find them, so I made this one. ya'll searchbar fags can go jerk off together instead of posting it in here.

looks like a worm trying to dig into your skin... that's gross dude, have that checked out before you go out skiing again. u might get it infected with all the sweat and rubbing going on inside your boot.

I had the same problem a couple of years ago when using a crappy pair of rental boots, tore my shins up something special, I skied with a large padded plaster on both shins until it was healed up which did help, was still a bit painful though. Can't see why it would happen in this situation though. If you do put anything sticky on your shin make sure you shave it to fuck though, I forgot to and it hurt like a bitch taking the plaster off. As someone else said, I'd get a boot fitter to take a look at your shins and boots to see if they can spot anything wrong. Hope it heals up quick.

Im sorry but how much of a nubend do you have to be?

It's not rocket science that it all goes on the outside.....

All you should have in a boot is your sock..... even tucking thermals can be bad for you.

I dont think so either. It healed mad fast since it didnt actualy break the skin, but a scab still formed to protect it.

You not serious about tasting your leg pus right? If it really does taste sweet and tangy you should patent that shit, obvious_TROLL's Steeze Sauce, giving your chicken afterbang since 2009.

It's so obvious what happened here.  Full Tilts right?  Didn't they pack Tanner's Full Tilts with TNT?  You must have got a little in yours too.  It detonated causing the damage to your shins and now that it's gone, everything's cool.  Next time you buy a pair of Full Tilts, have the bomb squad check them out first.

honestly. booster straps! your problem is probably that your shins still push heavily into the tongue of the boot. booster straps will fasten the boot very tightly to your shins to prevent any movement whatsoever (without cutting off circulation of course) there only around 40 bucks and you can get the FIS World cup grade ones or the normal ones. after i started using them i said bye bye to ripped up shins and shin bang

young_hawaiiewww, now i dont want the nachos i just made, fuck you

Hahahahahahahaha I can't stop laughing hahahaha.

This happened to me last weekend, but not to that degree. Holy shit that's gross. Just a little red and felt raw, like a bad chafe. I guess it's called shin BITE (not bang). Not sure if it was my socks or leggings that I was wearing, or new boots but it hurt. Almost like the feeling you would get if you tucked your pants in your boots, so I'm betting it was the socks since they were a little thicker. Considering cutting my leggings so they don't go below my boot cuff. I did have my boots super tight, so any friction was probably amplified.

Oh dude, you 100% have to cut your long underwear if it goes under the boot. That or just buy 3/4 length. Then invest in super baller ski socks.

You'll still lose all the hair on your shins if you ride enough, but I've never had anything close to that bad happen to me.

Google. Was reading about shin bang, which I obviously got cuz I was a scrub riding in the backseat, but also saw the term shin bite on google, and then saw this thread....had to comment because that is gross. My shins are just a little red/raw like chafing.

The search function on NS sucks in quite an epic fashion. I would have never found it with that. Perhaps they should consider powering their search bar with Google.

I always just roll them up so that it ends right above the boot. I guess I'm lucky.

Yeah I mean you can do that too, just depending on how tight it is it can get a bit bunchy. If you cut them, you never have to worry about it.
