Flow binding fitting tip
I love my Flow bindings and have persevered through many breakage / replacement / upgrade cycles to keep using them.

One downside that persisted, however, was the fact that, due to having only a single foot strap, it was always difficult to adjust them to fit comfortably while working properly. In particular, I found that if I tightened them up enough to avoid heel lift the pressure on my instep was unbearable. The following tip really helped to get a better fit.

On a stove, bring a large pan of water to a boil, and then reduce the heat to simmer.
Place the foot cover in a plastic bag, and place in the simmering water, open end up so as not to get any water in.

Leave for a couple of minutes while you put your boots on!

After a couple of minutes remove the foot cover from the bag; the heat should have softened the plastic and made it extremely flexible; if it's still stiff, return to the bag and boil for a couple more minutes.

When it's nice and bendy, put your foot on the binding plate and clip the foot cover back onto the ratchet clips, pressing well down so there's a good tight fit all over the foot. As the cover cools it 'sets' to the exact shape of your boot, although it will remain flexible.


I remembered reading it on usenet ages ago and, thanks to Google, it is still there.

무슨말인지 당췌.영어두 모르고.ㅇ ㅔㅎ ㅕ.

오븐???
오~~ 마이 구니스~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ㅡ,ㅡ;;

누가 해석해서 설명해주실분 없나요~ ㅡㅡ;

제가 위에 쓴데로 하시면 되는데... 무슨말인지 모르시겠나요?

플로우 반딩 굳이 열성형 할 필요있나요? 안그래도 너무 타이트해서 부담스러운데..

전 레귤러 타입으로 왼바인딩을 -15로 맞추고 타고있는데요
오른쪽 반딩은 딱 맞는데 왼쪽반딩이 조금 헐겁더군요...
데크가 좀 예민한 편이라(sims fr750) 저방법을 사용해서 맞추면 더 괜찮을것 같다는 생각이..^^*~
함 해봐야 겠네요~~

wellbbo님 저같은경우는 열성형하기전에는 꽉조여주면 발목쪽만 너무 압박이왔었는데요 이제는 발전체가 고르게 압박되요.

음...나두 이방법을 써볼까낭~~넘 꽉껴서 불편했는데...ㅜㅜ
