so i keep getting bruses on the bottom of my feet... little ones all over. so i have been comming to the conclusion that it may be my bindings. i have 07 LF transits. i have been dealing with it for a while now and im over it. you guys ansd gals think that is the problem or other things too? anything would be great

Are they randomly appearing or are you feeling a lot of pressure and they are hurting your feet in general ?

alittle bit of both. i get them like on the side of my heel. i have one under my big toe and other random spots

Foot problems suck ! I have Plantar fasciitis and went to the Transits because of it. They seem to have a pretty soft foot bed and have helped. They do seem to get water logged and heavy though.

It sounds strange that your getting them all over your foot. I hope you get it worked out.

Maybe it's your shoes ? I'd see a doctor before it gets out of hand.

yeah im going to..i wear basic vans and never have had a problem. been wearing them for years.. so i just getting alittle nervious because there are alot of serious illnesses that come from bruised feet. luekimia is one, diabeties is another. i should probably go in. but the bruses will never stop me from riding :-)

Vans can't be good for your feet. I've never heard of foot problems causing other illnesses. Are you sure it's not the other way around ?

no i meant the other way around.. but i know im healthy as a wisle. yeah the vans arnt whats doing it. i have been wearing them for at least 6 years now. its only when i wakeboard i really get them... could it be from landing really hard?

No doubt that going big and landing hard takes it's toll.

yeah i have been riding my buddies slammed 210 most of the year... cheaper on gas then my vlx. its a new transition and all the components could be adding up. i have been also going as big as i can this year... back to the big stylish riding again. im over the tech stuff, it just gets old. walt thank you for your help. i really appreciate it. would you recomemnd getting new bindings??

I don't know if there's a softer foot bed out there or not ? Maybe someone else will chime in on that ?
