Hey Dude,

I’ve been riding for about 20 years now and have the same problem that you have described. Like the others have said, it’s most likely due to blood flow issues in the feet. I like to have my boots and bindings very tight. After a couple of runs, when the pain gets too much, I like to unstrap and go for a 30 sec walk. After that I’m usually fine for the rest of the day.

Sometimes if I’m just crusing around I start with loose boots, then tighten them up a bit every run or so.

yes maybe ill have to start looser and get tighter at the feet warm up.
Once I get to the chairlift after a run and get off my feet its fine, normally for the first 2/3 runs of the day then its fine!
