 Poster: A snowHead

So, I've put on my new ski boots in (probably) vain hope of bedding them down a bit before next skiing. They are very squeaky as I walk about - sounds like it's coming from where the cuff joins the ankle bit of the boot. Will it stop? is there anything I can do to make it stop?

Quite normal, if you go fast enough you can leave the squeak behind!

My mum always told me that squeaky boots were just shouting that you'd not paid for them... Have you?

You're not suggesting that there could be mice in them are you - who would be stupid enough to wear ski boots with anything already inside the boot?

to stop plastic-on-plastic squeaks, try rubbing the join area with a pencil, the graphite acts as a stable lubricant. For awkward areas shave down the graphite and pour into the area, levering the joint apart a little with the blade of a knife. work the joint a little and voila, squeakies are gone or at least reduced...

Sounds like you've been sold boots that are too big for you... I'd take them back and shout lots!
