Hey guys! Today we'll talk about how
to choose our new snowboard boot.
At the moment there is a huge variety of brands
and models in the market.
In that sea of choises
a beginner can easily make the wrong choise.
Just like when choosing a board
when we are looking for boots we have
three things we need to consider.
This is the way we tight the boots
size and flex.
When we talk about the way we tight the boots
there are three different systems.
These are the classics with laces
the boa and the fast track systems.
The classic is and always will be the laces.
You can always rely on them
nothing can brake and are easy to use.
After all everybody know how to tight their laces!
The cons are that they get loose easily
they can soak with melted snow and freeze
and if the temperatures are really low
trying to tight them again is a hell!
The Boa System is simple and easy to use.
It uses a knob to turn
the metal string which makes the boot tighter.
The cons are that
you don't tight the foot by zones
but you do it evenly for the whole foot.
Fast track and also known as speed lace systems
are also very easy to use.
The pros here are that you can tight
the lower part of the foot in a different way
compared to the upper part and vice versa.
They are very easy and intuitive
and tighten the foot really well.
The cons are that repairs
if that metal string or rope breaks
it costs money and time.
The second thing we need to consider
is the flex of the boot.
Just like with boards, softer snowboard boots
are recommended for beginners and people
that want to experiment with park riding
with flex from 3-4 from 10.
The intermediate riders
can choose a boot with middle flex
around 5 to 7 from 10
and for advanced riders and powder seekers
is recommended a boot with bigger flex
from 8 to 10.
The last and maybe most important thing
when you are choosing your new snowboard boot
is the size.
I want to share with you a personal story
from a few years ago
when led by the presumption of many people
that you need to buy at least one size larger boots
so that you can have room for extra socks if you get cold
I did exactly the same.
As a result of my decision
that snowboard boot lasted
2-3 seasond before finally getting ruined
instead of lasting at least 4-5 seasons.
When choosing your new snowboard boot
make sure that the size
is the same as the size of the shoes you wear every day.
In most equipment shops
then can measure your foot in advance
whenever you are buying the boots
and this way there will be no problems
once you go up the mountain
and realise that the boot you got is
too big or small for you.
I hope that with these advices
you will easily choose the right snowboard boot for you
and riding will be more than a pleasure.
Next week I will show you how to choose
snowboard bindings
and this will be the last component
you need in order to start riding.
See you soon in the snowy mountains
and #SavePirin!
