Heat moulding Intuition liners in an oven (Important: Please read video description)

- IMPORTANT UPDATE: The liners we tested have the Velcro ankle part attached. We strongly advise against putting the liners in the oven, especially ones without the ankle part (including stock liners that don’t have the ankle part option like Them Skates and FR skates). It’s possible that the height of the liners will shrink without the ankle part.

The advice seems to be; Don't heat-mould your intuition liners in the oven... so we heat moulded some Intuition liners in the oven. Did they shrink? did they set alight? Did the universe implode in on itself? Find out...

Thanks. Just did mine, and used an oven setting of 90 degrees and 10 minuttes to start out and then a few more to “to taste”.
I sat in front of the oven kept a keen eye on the process, and when I noticed the two sides of the shaft spreading apart very slowly, I gave them a minute more. While I placed the left liner in the shell and laced up tight, the other liner had a minute more in the oven.
It immediately felt great and very snug.
I did it with 70 deg C in 12 minutes. It works!
Speaking from skiing world and intution liners we do bake them as well. Main advice - as soon you get them from the oven, buckle everything up as you normally do and stand in rollers the riding position to get proper fit. hth.
With this method they shrinks a lot in all directions, length and height ^^ I did it with my Large v2 liners and after passing through the oven they lost one or two centimeter... after they had the same lenght as my Seba cj prime liners in 43 eur. But for me I think that's better that if I used the recommended method by Intuition, cause the Large size was a little big bigger for my Them 909's in medium and unusable in my Salomon's st Arron Feinberg in 27-27.5. Now they fit both perfectly! And with the lost of height they looks better with the shock absorber (they exceed less of the cuffs).
Do you remember what temp/time you used? Thank you!
thanks, works as well as with the MyFit liners (about 80C) and it's much easier than the socks/rice/mw stuff...
Hows about the RL1 Liners? Can I put them into the oven or would it be bedder to follow the rice-sock procedure as explained by Roces?
I wanted to see a roasted intuition 😂😂
Super informative
Triskates FTW!!
Thx! :)
What skates are you using in this video? Thanks

@@LocoSkates thank you!
im on the limit of size small, my feet being 26.5cm, still should always consider that size to fit inside my eu41 sx that i will gut, you think?
Yes. Get the small, heat mould it... all will be fine!
My feet are 270 mm and smalls are fine.
My feet are 26.2, medium size were way too long, small were perfect
P.S. I heat moulded mine with a hair dryer. Once hot they were very flimsy and moulded to my feet perfectly. Cant go back to non Intuition liners now as they are amazing
@@gI-jl3lq im thinkin bout goin this route. Did you just aim the hair dryer in the liner, then when it got soft enough you put your fit in?
I'm guessing you didn't have the shock absorber on?
I was wondering this too
No shock absorber :-)
Why not? Do you mold them without the shock absorber and then put the shock absorber on when the liners are hot, before inserting them? The official instructions don’t say anything about removing the shock absorber, probably because they recommend warming up the inside only by inserting a heated up rice filled sock... See intuitionliners.com/home-fitting/
I just got some of these liners and I’ll first go skate with them with and without shock absorbers, and with the yellow vs black back piece, as some say these pieces have a different stiffness. Once I know what feels best I’ll go for the official molding way, though the one in the video seems way easier... it’s definitely tempting!
Do you use a Insole/Footbed in the Intuition Liner?
Actually, I forgot... so I had to do it again. (You can actually see that in the video after this one)
Oh great! Thanks for the quick answer. Your Vids are very good.
Did u use electric oven? What about gas oven?
putting on top of a radiator and firing hairdryer from top works - just make sure to keep moving hairdryer to different palces to prevent burning one spot. after 5mins you can put in the skate and put skates on to heat mould to your feet.
90 degrees.. being in the US, i'm thinking, they'll be far hotter than 90 degrees just with normal wear. just now realizing that's 90 degrees C. *facepalm*
Yes saw some dudes do it at 200 f for 10 min Seemed to work well
