The important thing is that we went to a great shop and spent hours over many days trying on all different pairs while being strapped into a board and although it’s not the same as riding she did notice that a lot of what seemed like nice fitting boots were far off the mark when they were in bindings. She’s now quite happy wearing last years women’s Iroc which have an extra external “tongue†over the bottom of the boot, not sure if this actually helps in any way or it’s just she’s finally found some boots that fit her reasonably well.
However half way through a season and they sort of collapsed around the toe area, but they might make em better now. The ligaments and muscles found at the base of your foot, are stretched beyond the norm when your foot flattens, which can cause arch pain. This move is also known as toe-side turns or carves. She tried some DC’s with the boa lacing and a pump up system worked Ok as she could loosen everything off while on the lift after each run. Foot pain or arch pain is usually experienced by snowboarders due to the excessive flattening of the arch that happens during inward turns. the only reason i can think of for arch pain would be some sort of pressure point in the boots. i would say try sticking some insoles in your boots or something.
First.Orthotics ARE A MUST regardless of the $$$’s. the only i can think of is maybe bad arch support but you said youve tried different boots so i dont know. My girlfriend has the same sort of issues high arches and thin ankles, suffers from pain across the top of her foot as you do.
