Shin Bang!

Jeff,

I have a pair of Salomon Performa(I think they are the 6's). They are about 3 years old but(unfortunately) don't have alot of ski days on them. Part of the problem is that they cause me tremendous pain and I usually opt to ride my snowboard instead of ski

The pain is consistent in both boots and seems to be right around the area of the top buckle/power strap. I brought them back to the shop where I bought them twice now. First they simply lowered the forward lean adjustment on the back of the boot. This didn't work so they enxt tried to add some padding between the liner tongue and the shell as well as tried heat molding the liners"to soften them up" as they said. I skied Saddleback yesterday(which was awesome, by the way) and they were the same as always. I have Superfeet in them inc ase that makes a difference. The boots have a stiffness adjustment as well, soft or firm flex. I have been keeping them on soft thinking that might help.

Sorry for the excessively long post! Any suggestions
