I have a pair of skookum that I love! But during my last ski trip to Norway, a minor problem appeared. I use the Skookum together with Dynafit TLT speed and my left boot has started to release while I'm skiing. It doesn't matter if I switch skis, so I'm quite sure that the boot is the problem. It is the toe part that gets released. When I look at the Dynafit attachment on the boot, I can't see anything wrong. I can still ski with my Skookums if I "Lock" the toe part of the binding to walk mode, but it is really disturbing. Any tips what can be wrong? Hi Lou!

The hole is a larger diameter than the pin. Anyone ever welded this hole shut and drilled a smaller one?

They made up some prototypes for people with really sweaty feet. I just don't know if you could use the holes to put laces through them without cutting the foam. hmm – I’ve seen intuition foam liners with holes cut into them.

Or if it would be possible to tighten laces without eyelets. Lee Lau, I wonder if it possible to punch holes in intuitions without the foam coming out?
