HI all,
Quick background, volunteer ski patroller out west, trying to figure out why my low shins (right around where the leg bends to the top of the foot)/ inside ankle area KILLS any time I patrol. With my new boots, it's definitely less (but still happens), but I've been using a pair of old shells with old liners out of another pair of boots as my patrol boots (trying to save wear and tear on the new boots).
I know the tongues of the liners sometimes don't get seated back within the liner cuff, but I do my best to mitigate that and ensure it's tucked back in there. Right now, I'm playing around with laces on the liners to help ensure the tongue stays tucked in. I'm also going to put my booster strap on the patrol shells to see if that helps any.
Really, looking for anyone else who has dealt with similar pain and how they solved it. May look into an Intuition wrap liner to try to get away from a tongued liner.
