Riding with feet that are cramping up, moving around too much inside the liner, or 'bottoming out' to the point that I get bruised heels, SUCKS! With this combo I've ridden up to 36 days consecutively, and not had any of the issues I've had all the years prior. I hope they help you too, and please come back and leave your reviews on them when you find they solve the same issues. fp-insoles.com?sca_ref=4476525.wmmR8GbbYb www.donek.com/product/deeluxe-heel-harness-pro/
Happy New Year All.
Where did you buy yhat glasses?
Ryan, I just wanted to write - your videos that you shot 3-5 years ago, where you taught people how to carve, they really helped me learn how to do it well. And it was helpful not only for me - I study websites about carving, read the comments under the video, everyone knows you, in the UK, Switzerland, Austria, Russia, Japan and Korea. What you have done is taught and inspired people, made them happier! I really expect that you will have circumstances again so that you shoot videos more often. I'm sure there are thousands of people waiting. I wish you inspiration and good empty slopes!
Those videos literally revolutionized my snowboarding
well said mate, viewer from UK
And a Happy New Year shredding too you Sir..... Just about the cleanest snowboarder I've ever witnessed.
Stay blessed Ryan lad.
Thanks for the tips Ryan. My harnesses and insoles just arrived per your recommendation on ig and I cant wait to try em out.
waiting for your next video, i looked at every video you made , realy enjoy your carving style, keep shredding
Thank you for that info! Just in time of a need!
I had severe pain and after getting a custom footbed it got a lot better. It all depends on your feet. It’s expensive but worth it!
"It all depends on your feet" indeed. Not everyone needs custom orthotics, but if you do, you do.
There's more to it than just insoles though. It's a good idea to consult a boot fitter on foot pain and a physical therapist if you've got pain elsewhere.
FP gamechangers did the same for me! Comfiest my feet & joints have ever been.
Might see ya out there sometime
Picked epic up this season
Happy shredding
My solution with heel lift issue was 32 TM-2 with Intuition liner. They have a very nice heelhold system, for thin ankles especially
i use fp on all my gear too. sunlight is so fun! went last year
First ❤😂
Love you man
Totally agree
Once i've got those gamechangers my life divided into before and after
I'm so thrilled that you took the time to write that. Please let me tell a story.
I'm a "professional" foosball player. (Shit has gotten weird!). I'm practicing on the best of the best equipment, and regularly playing both with, and, against World Champions year round. (yeah, it's gotten crazy)... Practice is my happy place to have gotten to this level. I love it. I stand in front of an empty table and start whatever type of practice I'd like to experience. On a daily basis, eventually any inefficiencies present themselves... so I first go to a mental thought with my "stance" and "balance".
The "balance" part is soooo difficult for me to find in certain shoes. But when I'm on shoes where I can think about the same balance I have while on a snowboard... it just turns to gold. Its a work in progress, but very tangible.
Thus, guess what insoles I use in all of my shoes...., whether they be Zero shoes, Racquet ball shoes, walking shoes, running shoes, etc. (I also practice in my snowboard boots when I need to get them feeling right, and on the other side, just some sandals). Best actually seems to be barefoot when its possible. Hahhaha. It's rad and can be easy on the body.
I'm glad I'm living in the "After" aspect you described. Every footware product I buy, I try them 'as is'... and so far it's a general feeling of: This isn't 'right". These have been giving me a great sense with finding my balance consistently. It's gotten crazy. I hope you can all relate to that in due time.
my boots were always tight as hell ... so i cutout a big Hole at the toe area and switched to a flow nx2 step in a few years ago ... all issues solved 😅
no pain anymore ... Heel lift is gone ... and you just go in and lift the highback ... everything is fine...only thing is the binding front area mustive up due the release of the highback.
Ah that harness looks perfect for me! I'm in the Ride Lasso and have some lift. It'd be nice to have a solution that can be transferred to future boots too.
I’m in the ride lasso pro and have some lift too. I put an insert which definitely helped but I something more
Qupla'! Got the insoles and Deelux boot thingys last season.. Another trick is MTB ankle guards.. Before all this I actually used football shin guards. Padded ankle out and added rigidity to shins into turns. I've the skinniest legs and ankles and I've always had to modify.
Ankle/shin guards is clever. I might have to try that.
That harness does wonders for my heel hold. Insoles also work really well. I was really lucky to import the harness from US, too bad it's not available in Europe.
Deeluxe is from Europe so why wouldn't the harness be available there? I ordered it through a Deeluxe retailer in my (EU) country and got it for cheap to. I could even choose between regular and pro version.
The FP insoles have been nice - I have them underneath my stock Salomon insoles. I was just showing Josh the heel hold liner sleeve from Patriot Footbeds, but those Deeluxe ones look way more substantial. I've eventually gotta figure out something for the bruising on my rear foot, on the balls of my feet behind the pinky toe, then I'm golden 🤙.
I'm stoked you're using em! (FP Insoles sent me a bunch of them when I chatted with them about how they've made my snowboarding much more sustainable, so I gave sets out to some riders who I know are really pushing their equipment to the max. Dave is one of them, and his riding is 🔥🔥🔥) . On the Liner sleeve from Patriot,... Man, I wanted to try them, but I was just envisioning not being able to cinch it down in the ways that the Deeluxe lacing part does. I crank mine down like really f'n tight, and those just don't have that capability.
Anyways, Dave breaks more bindings than anyone I've ever known. Its wild. Hopefully someday that is a video in and of itself, and it's something he's solving. It's awesome.
Thanks Dave and see ya NYE!
@@RyanKnapton I was just chatting about the broken bindings... I'm up to 7 now!
2 chipped Now/Jones heel cups,
2 sheared Now/Jones heel cups,
2 sheared Bent Metal highback angle adjusters,
1 sheared Rome heel cup (metal!)
Now/Jones & BM support have been stellar! Rome, not so much...
I'm enjoying the video. What's your binding angle?
I've solved this completely by thoughly massaging my feet each morning before starting and the pain just dissipates.
It works so good, and to think i suffered so so much for years not knowing this. I used to stop every 5-10 minutes because the pain was so intense...
happy shreddin
I ran distance and sprints for a few years straight in my late 20s until my swollen painful knees made me have to cut back to maybe one session a week. I tried many different running shoes. When I switched to adidas boost I could run distance and sprints 7 days a week with minimal swelling. That's why I went with the Adidas boost snowboard boots. I forget the name of my specific model. I guarantee you're missing out on the insane shock absorption.
I'm using the Ride Insanos this season and am getting a lot of ankle pain vs my old pair of Burtons. The stiffness is so extreme I think the fronts my ankles are flexing super hard to try and bring my feet up/shins down along with bent knees
I fixed my foot pain with HeelLoc inserts in ZipFit liners in Lange ski boots. Soft boots don't offer the support of hard boots and your feet know it
I'm guessing the end part is filmed with the new longer lens camcorder . It's nice to see a different perspective & the quality looks awesome !
It is! It'll be fun to shoot with more this season. 📸🏂✌️
Ryan can you recommend wide boards other than Donek for those of us who don't have access. Would love to get your feed back on other options out there
Everyone should watch this video first - the boot connection is the most important. Footbeds with some cushioning are the best for us older riders - the plantar (thick tissue that goes across the bottom of the foot) is just not so flexible anymore, and the constant impacts can cause pain, even if not in the snowpark. Pain made me look this up. I do have a question, Ryan - at 2:57 - how are you getting that ankle bend ("Michael Jackson")? are you boots really flexible? Park boots?
been rocking the game changers for a while. from skating, hiking, and boarding.. they are great. buyer beware though, i had them ship me the wrong ones 2 times and their customer service is absolute dog sh*t. get them from a physical store if possible
I had severe pain in my feet when I tightened the top BOA lacing too much
When I get brand new insanos and tridents I often leave the top boa looser than I normally would until to boot starts to break in.
He ryan. What thing yoy use for protect your jacket?
I broke 2 jacket in 1 seasson. This seasson i need protect my jacket😂
I am currently wearing Burton X Drive boots, and I'm considering changing to a different pair. Do you have any good suggestions? Someone recommended Nitro Team Pro to me.
Started last season. After my second day up, I could barely walk that evening. Same boots, but different board, bindings, stance, so on. Not sure how much of a difference the laces made, but I'm definitely avoiding cinching down too hard from here on. Would help if there were a guide somewhere that could point to what symptoms might result from what conditions.
It is unfortunately way too complicated to diagnose boot problems through a chart like that. That's what boot fitters are for.
The easy guesses if you're tightening your laces too much are that the boots are too big in some dimension or too soft, but it could be something else.
Ryan, do you know if donek is bringing more harnesses in? Their ai chat interface didn’t get me anywhere when I asked them
I have no pain when Im simply riding / carving on a slope but as soon as I am doing butters I get foot pain at the end of the run
what is your recommendation?
Hey Ryan, I live in Canada. What Canadian website did you buy those ankle braces from? Thanks in advance
www.yyzcanuck.com/shop/boots/deeluxe-heel-harness/
@@RyanKnapton hopefully one day I can board with you. I bought a Knapoton Twin last year and I absolutely love it. Thank for for inspiring me and many others on my local hill🙏
Does the heel harnas take op space as well in the shoe?
I always go to a bootfitter, and they've made custom soles and adjustments to my shoes, and finally, pain-free. Ok, first hour or so not. I usually have my shoes a bit on the tight side, have to adjust again. After that I'm fine. J-bars do the trick for my ankle so far.
No real amount of real extra space. I see the newer pro version has a bit more support so maybe a just bit more with the ones in the link.
@@RyanKnapton thanks for for letting me know!
Are you using the heelhold with the ankle donut in the insert? Happy feet = Qapla'!
I have some old jbars... Never tried adding those into that configuration.... Hmmm. I dig the experiment.
I wouldn't say heel lift is a problem though after adding the heel hold harness.... The next step is... My liners can bang around in the shell once they are really broken in. I've been playing around with some other liners, and I just have to continue on that quest for awhile before I'm confident with suggesting anything on that aspect. I'd like to try some Zipfit gear... So I might be spending even more soon.
Do you have any experience with the ones listed on Donek's site? they are different from the ones on the liners shown in this video, the ones on the website look like they may be much stiffer.
I think these may be the solution to my my heel lift, but I want to make sure they will not cause a problem with ankle steering/articulation.
I haven't gotten to try the newest version. I'm sure it'll act in the same ways for why I appreciate them with providing a tighter interface in that area. The new ones just look like they've added some extra support on the sides. I'll get a pair and let y'all know if I feel anything different.
@@RyanKnapton
Thanks look forward to hearing about it.
We just want a high back info video. Waiting on the high back info.
I was contemplating it... And now that Chad Otterstrom is requesting it... I'm down to share secrets in 2024.
It's been a long process to make it feel exactly how I want it to. Collectively through all the experiments... it's the best thing I've ever done. So it's time I share what I've come up with. Hey Chad, get someone from Burton to make it a real product. I'll make sure they get it right. The time has arrived. 2024 is coming up.
Got the Toko Edge Tuner Pro. Which setting do you use?
Depends on the conditions. When the snow is real nice, I'm usually at 88 or 87. When it's more like a skating rink than a surface that has depth, then I go with 86 and 85. Something like 85 when snow conditions are good... it can feel too aggressive. So play around with the settings per the snow you're on, and try to find what level of grip for carving, and friction for skidding you want. It's a great tool!
i swear by FP insoles i use them on snow skate and for every day shoes.
My buds call snowboarding foot pain "squashy foot".
I've always assumed the sensation of my heels lifting in my boots is poor technique, caused by just leaning on the binding straps on the toe edge, when I could (should?) actively push down through my toes. Comforting to know even the GOAT suffers from it!!
It does sound like bad technique tho. I say that because I’ve recently learned to put my weight on the balls of my feet, instead of my toes, and it made a huge difference in heel lift. Also pressing my shin into the front of my boots.
The motions you described by leaning into the binding straps is exactly the motions I'm using when carving on the toeside edge. Thus the massive importance for an interface that works in harmony with that.
@RyanKnapton I think squashy foot comes on worse for me on harder skiddier snow, I guess as the board chatters I get the binding rapidly and repeatedly digging in to me, and I should shift technique away from trying to lay down anyway, cos the grip ain't there. When it's a nice carvy piste I don't get it, or not as much. So maybe it's just down to happiness! 😅
Are you not rocking the driver x anymore? How were they?
Once I got accustomed to the feel of the insanos, I've preferred these with the hard shelled tongue. Better leverage against my shins and I'm not having them fold over like the driver x's would always eventually do.
Strangely enough, I can feel pain on the outside of my frontfoot (just below the little toe) when i get up with the button lift. I don’t feel the pain while riding.
I can’t explain this.
i get that too. i DIDN'T when i had canted beds in my bindings but unfortunately that didn't catch on across manufacturers.
I got heat molded boots but every time I ride I get a black broken spot on my toenails. I don’t have pain during riding what could be the problem?
The black toenails! Man, you have no idea of how it was for me. Luckily they weren't a source of pain other than early in the seasons when they'd first occur. Anyways, that is something I'd love to address. Its a multi-variable problem that I'd like to make much more complete than I'm willing to type. Thanks for the topic concept.
@@RyanKnapton omg thanks I asked to many people but I am the only one with this problem, I suppose that is my toe that pushes against the boot when I press frontside. I thought it could be painful during riding but no 0 pain until end of the day, the broken nail got 3 months to heal after my last day of riding last year
You’re supposed to say “kahblah” at the end!! HNY!
A couple of years ago you mention about replacement liners to fit Burton boot. I have a pair of Burton photon no it's that after 4hrs riding, i can't even walk, there is no padding support for the tie box I hate these boots with a passion Burton customer support have been as much good as a Chocolate fucking teapot, can you advice or help ir have I wasted my money
Hi Ryan, happy holidays. What is your angle stand?
How about socks? Arent socks important? Which ones are you wearing?
Smartwool ski socks primarily, but I have quite a few different ones that are also good. When I'm having shin bang issues I have a pair of Entry padded socks, but they aren't catered for a snowboard boot and where pressure connects, so I might try to reach out to them and design a snowboard specific one.
👊👟Foosball shoes!
It's gotten crazy Steve. Back to two tables in here. 💪🤣
where the hell did you go?
and btw my heals alway come off . .it makes me mad.. my toes start to hurt.
That was Sunlight near Glenwood Springs. I love the place, but their conditions aren't firing yet either due to lack of snow.
You’re all over Chinese social media, it would be better streaming your videos on those as well ✌️
It's in the plans, but it's a real rough draft as of now. Thanks Man. 🖖😎
I'm enjoying the video. What's your binding angle?
