Breaking in 3ds bindings

(quickpilot1010)

just got some brand new 3ds bindings, they are impossible to get into as i expected, any ideas on how to break them in?

I had the same problem. I put laundry detergent (the liquid kind) on my feet and squeezed in. Just wear them around the house and they will slowly break in.

Wear them

Not to be a dick...but I had to struggle through about 10 painstaking sets before mine were right. I never thought it would happen and I almost got rid of them...now they're money.

tweak those suckers and if you REALLY want to, while your watchin some TV, slide in those things and just work em back and forth. once they get broken in, those suckers are AMAZING!

I had the exact same problem with my old black 3DS and after 1/4 season they were perfect. Then the one of the lace loops broke. Pro: got brand new 07's. Con: I'm still breaking them in.

i got the 3ds bindings last year and it took 5 sets for them to break in. they are super comfy now though. i love them. i wore them around my house for a while too. use soap to get in, that helped me

Fill up your bath tub with hot hot water and put your bindings on and plop your feet in the hot water.

Mine were'nt that bad to get in but the neck will be easier to get into after a few sets.
They are really great boots.

"Fill up your bath tub with hot hot water and put your bindings on and plop your feet in the hot water" -this defintely helps

They do take a while to break in. Mine we're ideal about half way through the season.

I don't get it, I don't recall any problem getting into mine from the beginning. Just dipped the board in the lake before sliding in. I love 'em.
