This video for women would be awesome 👏 too. I’m looking for a medium to stiff Allrounder boot and wanted to get the photon. I hope it’s a good enough boot to last for like 6 years or so?
Hey guys, been rocking into my third set of Ions and I love them!………but I have found that the undersole on last two pairs keeps lifting and when they are not to old. Not sure if it’s due to humidity when I get back home to the Gold Coast? Wondering if Burton is across this and maybe glue issue?
Any idea on which models have the most minimal length? Looking to minimize boot hang. Have an old set leather of SL’s which are starting to fall apart. Looking at Kendo’s and SLX.
The footprint on ALL the Burton boots is pretty minimal so I wouldn’t worry about it. Just go with the boot that is going to fit your needs performance wise. And most importantly the boot that fits the best. www.the-house.com/snbo?routes={%22fs%22:[{%22f%22:%22Brand%22,%22vs%22:[%22Burton%22]}]}

Thanks for the vid! Which boot would you suggest for the setup with a proto slinger and the new union ultra, the photon or the swath? As you said in the vid the photon can do anything and if I want to switch to a stiffer board it will work with it.. does the same count for the swath?
@@drsteee A lot of people do think that but it’s just not true. It 100% up to you and your personal preference. Check out this vid about gear flex for a great visual explanation th-cam.com/video/S4ji_3zlesM/w-d-xo.html The only thing you don’t want to do is buy the super soft, beginner style boots and bindings to put on higher end boards. That would be like buying tires at Walmart to put on a Ferrari 🤷♂️
Coming from Moto boots + Moto bindings which were way too soft for my style, I went to Cartel X bindings, now I can't decide over Ruler Boa vs Swath SpeedLace. Any tips? I mostly ride tracks and occasional pow when possible.
Really up to you and your personal preference. The Swath is slightly stiffer than the Ruler and you are getting the better liner and better fit for the extra money. BURTON BOOTS -> www.the-house.com/snbo-burton

@@fuzzymuffinsthe3rd I went from some 14 y/o Burton boots to 32’s. Absolutely hate the 32’s and now I’m looking at getting some Burton photons.

Had the insano for 3 seasons. Completely destroyed now. Not the flex, the flex (well, lack of lol) is amazing. I would have considered the driver x but after more than 10 years with black boots, I hate black now lol. Yeah, I am that stupid. The stiffest are always black dammit! I missed the white insano last season...
Look at it this way, your pants cover upmost of your boots and then the you straps cover a good portion of the rest, and black goes with everything 🤷♂️
@@thehouse Yes, but I'm stupid, remember? lol. Nah, too late, I've just bought the Lasso pro in white. A bit softer than the insano, but still pretty stiff. Also, this is my first boot with boa for the liner because I didn't pay attention to the specs, just to the stiffness, but I love it to be honest. It's the first liner (for me) that gets really tighten right at the top, no gap or loosen, like a glove, and it's because of the boa harness. Enough of Ride for a Burton video lol. Sorry.

@@MustyRusty5 In all Honestly the only difference between the speed laces and the BOA is pulling or cranking your boots down. The lacing is made out of the same rope (the speed zone is actually a little thicker). The speedzone is much faster too 🤷♂, the speedzone also is impossible to come loose without yanking the laces out of the teeth so its a more durable system overall. It's a common misconception that the BOA is better because it's a cool crank system but its really not, it's just different
@@thehouse I didn't realize boa can come loose that's good to know. I just personally prefer how boa feels like you can more accurately tighten them vs speed laces. The ends of the laces are also annoying to deal with imo
@@MustyRusty5 Don't get me wrong, the BOA is a good system and it doesn't come loose easily. I more said that about the Speedzone becasue lots of people think IT can come loose. As for those cords, wrap em and tuck em!! LOL ->th-cam.com/video/HCkw_yb-Bnw/w-d-xo.html

Yes, the Photon is kind of the replacement of the Imperial
How do these rank as far as weight? I take it the Swath is the lightest? But I don't want a boot that's too soft, but is as light as possible.
