I think we need to get Tom and Matt both on the Gear 30 podcast for a boot-off.
Thank Lord, I thought you’d day Get them in the Octagon.
I actually think this would be one of the most informative gear 30’s to date. Both dudes are a wealth of knowledge
I’d watch it!
question @TomPietrowski
I currently ski the Anthem Pro and love it … more than any boot in the past. My problem is bone inhibited ankle dorsiflexion in my left ankle. The heel hold is great so the heel stays down but this causes my foot to slide forward. I have to crank down the toe buckle and - to some extent - the instep buckle to hold my foot back. This causes some issues with circulation.
Would the BOA system help with holding my foot back without pressing down on those arteries?

Sorry for my very slow response. Glad you are liking your current boots! In regards to your question of pressure on the top of the foot I do believe BOA could significantly help. One of the main aspects of boa is how it can wrap the lower shell compared to what buckles can do. What we find is its possible to get just as much pressure, if not more in many cases, on the foot but the pressure is spread evenly acros the whole foot. Compare this to buckles and you can get the same pressure but it is isolated to two spots under the buckles. Its these hot spots which can create alot of issues with blood vessels and nerve pressure. So in short yes you will get a better fit with a BOA anthem boot as you already know the anthem boots fit you well.
