Anyone get just raging shinbang from these boots? Ive had to stop doing blind 270s and have mostly stuck away from jumps since the easiest messup breaks me. Got so bad over Christmas break i had difficulty walking due to pain for the sport i love.

misleading title, I dont think everyone who has those specific boots will be getting shin bang, there's more likelihood that its because they
A. dont fit you/wrong size
B. not buckled to the extent they should be

to solve this I would check if they actually fit you correctly/are the right size, figure out what pressure you want your buckles at, I have Dalbello Rampage, same shell design as the Il moros and I have had zero complaints, it took a while for me to find the right buckle pressure and customize them to get the right fit. Also heat mold them if you haven't already. Hopefully this helps you out.

It didn't seem to matter on tightness, i've tried a whole host of different levels of tightness, I personally believe it has something to do with the new "park" buckle. It seems less forgiving then a buckle and powerstrap. The boot fits fine, perhaps im just small...5'7 135 pounds

I agree it's probably a fit issue or you're landing too "back seat"...I had shin bang problem in past boots, but, I am on my second pair of Il-Moro T's...first I had the "ratchet" top buckle and now have the new 12/13 buckle and they both have worked great! Well...the "ratchet" buckle used to strip when I tightened it too far, but, Dalbello was always very accommodating and would send me replacements free of charge.
