There's guys from all over the country here and it's cool to see all the different terrain you guys tear up! I'll go first. I ride at the Impereal Sand Dunes. Glamis and Gordans Wells. It's about a 3 hr drive from my house. We usually go out and camp for 3 days and burn allot of gas. All of these pictures are from right after it rained, it doesn't happen often but it's fun as hell tearing up wet sand!

So I found a place to try them on and I couldn't get my foot past the ankle hinge. I had to get a 13 and then my foot was swimming in them. On the bright side I tried on some Fox Comp 5s and they were the most comfortable boots I have ever worn. They feel broken in already and there a little wider so they fit great. Best part is they were only 190.00.

Yea, they are sidi's mid level boot. The sole is sewn on so its replaceable and I have guy that has been doing my boots for years so that's no biggie. They make a boot that has a screw on sole you can swap out yourself but they are 550 bucks. I could have the cheaper ones resoled 3-4 times before I make up the difference. There's just no place I have found that I can try them on before I order them so I wanted to get some feedback before I bother making a long drive to a store that does have them. If everybody says they suck I'm not going to bother.

I guess it makes them so you can walk and shift and stuff easier. No breakin time. Plus there pretty light.

I need some new gear, Just wanted to see if anyone has any experience with these. They look like a good boot for the price (375.00) and I really like the idea of the hinge on the ankle. [ATTACH]790.vB[/ATTACH]
