    Has anyone here successfully added padding to a tongue of an intuition? I love my current liner but wish it had a little more shin cushion. Having no luck so far with the liner I am trying to replace it with.

    tried this in my old Lupo’s. excruciating doesn’t begin to cover it by the 1/2-way mark thru the day. Spent 2 days in agony trying this method. Added black Superfeet and remolded w/ footbeds in the Intuitions and life was good again. Currently rocking Full Tilt Pro Wraps w/ black Superfeet in my Lupo AX115’s and love the combo. The built in J-bars hold my ankle and heel perfectly and the wrap liner adds that extra little bit of stiffness to the 115’s that the stock liner lacks (only ride them inbounds since they’re light and responsive and comfortable).

    Yeah, I have sewn some of those ‘eliminator’ tongues into the tongues of my pro tongue liners. That’s a lot tongues in one sentence, but it feels good on my skinny bony shins.

    both times I had Intuitions molded at the factory outlet in Vanmgroovy we taped SOLE footbeds to my foot with masking tape and covered with a sock

    I don't heat mold the SOLE footbeds becuz I have flat feet and I want all the arch support i can get but if you wana do that I would mold them first outside the boot just on the floor before molding the liner

    YMMV but I would use a foot bed with an intuiton liner, I would mold the liner with the footbeds, its easier to tape them to your foot and thro a sock over than trying to get a footbed into a hot liner into a boot



    I took a look on the web site and there are a lot of different models now, I haven't bought any in awhile because the SOLE last so long but I have some medium thickness red ones which I think are the " active medium " and some of the thicker black ones maybe the " active thick " they are readily available off the rack in sports stores up here

    I use the medium thickness in hiking boots or ski boots and the Black in Caulk boots & rubber boots where you need to take up lots of room
