 Poster: A snowHead
|
Should I heat mould my intuition liners (at home), or just ”ski them in”?
Any thoughts or experience?

@Psortti, if they are supposed to be heat moulded (mine are) then they will work better if they are ... (obvs)

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

A few years back I purchased a pair of Scarpa T2 ECO telemark boots which have an Intuition liner.
I purchased them mail order from Telemark Pyrenees.
I called a local telemark specialist shop about having them heat molded and they said to ski in them for a while and only have them heat molded if needed.
After a few days, the liners fit fine. They do adjust a bit just by wearing them.
The local shop said about half of their Intuition liner customers end up not needing heat molding.

@Psortti, heat mold! Plenty of video on YouTube. I didn't use rice, just heat the boots in the oven and put them on ... I bodged a toe box out of an old sock and gaffer tape.

I can confirm the sock full of rice approach works really well. I also now have smaller rice packages that I can use to heat specific parts of the boot if I just want to make a small tweak!
Toe caps made from cardboard and duct tape!
Chopped-up old insoles on the lumps and bumps on my feet to make sure there's plenty space for my bunion and bone spurs!
