Baller alex38 Posted February 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2013 What is best way to replace beat liners in my rs-1's? I'm assuming to just buy same size strada liners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BraceMaker Posted February 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2013 I wont tell you to ebay intuition liners. Because i buy mine there for 30 bucks a pair shipped by sniping and dont need competition. If you want the same go through radar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ RichardDoane Posted February 28, 2013 Baller_ Share Posted February 28, 2013 Strada boots have evolved since the RS1's, you might try those new liners in some new boots ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted February 28, 2013 Administrators Share Posted February 28, 2013 I would just get the new Radar liners. I own a freaking stack of radar boots and swap liners between all the versions.

Baller MJE Posted February 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2013 FWIW - 2012 Size 12 Strada liners did not fit in my 2009 size 12 RS-1 boots. You might want to do some testing before you buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrB Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 @alex38 I have 2012 Strada Liner Size 8 for sale on Ski-It-Again. Good Luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller A_B Posted February 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2013 I think the RS Liners were a little thicker, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BraceMaker Posted February 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2013 Do you heat and stretch yours around your foot before stuffing em in the boots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller alex38 Posted February 28, 2013 Author Baller Share Posted February 28, 2013 Do I heat mine? No haven't tried it yet, but found they fit pretty sweet out of the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller JC McCavit Posted February 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2013 @richarddoane - Is it noticeable going from 2010 STRADA boots, to the latest version? If so, can you elaborate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller scuppers Posted February 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2013 Huge diff between old (thinner and more plyable) and the new (thicker, stiffer) If you were snug with your old liners and up grade to just new liners - it will be too tight!

Baller_ RichardDoane Posted February 28, 2013 Baller_ Share Posted February 28, 2013 it takes a couple of sets to get used to the thickness difference in liners, so just run 4 passes of your opener to settle back in, but what I like about the newest boots is the velcro flap that overlays your laces to keep'em under control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller alex38 Posted February 28, 2013 Author Baller Share Posted February 28, 2013 I'll try that, and if it doesn't work ill just get the new boots too, I have to assume size 10 liner for rs-1 will fit like size 10 liner for strada, would be size change if they didn't, however, wouldn't be the first time that's happened (with other gear).

Baller_ RichardDoane Posted February 28, 2013 Baller_ Share Posted February 28, 2013 @alex38 - I wore a size 10 in the RS1 and the thinner liner Strada's, but use a size 11 in my newest Strada's with the thicker liners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller SkiJay Posted February 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted February 28, 2013 I wasn't nuts about the thicker liners and ended up with Intuition Aqua liners and LOVE 'm. https://intuitionliners.com/the-liners/aqua/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ RichardDoane Posted March 1, 2013 Baller_ Share Posted March 1, 2013 @skijay - those liners look nice, and at $176. each, they should Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller SkiJay Posted March 1, 2013 Baller Share Posted March 1, 2013 @alex38 I use them in Stradas, but I had RS-1s and they'll work fine in those too. @richarddoane They're not cheap but I have nearly 600 sets on them and they are still in excellent condition. In fact they outlasted my last set of Strada shells and will likely be good for 1,000 sets. Since the stock liners are made by Intuition for Radar, the decision is more about fit than price. The stock liners have a seam on the top edge of the tongue that bites my ankle bone, and they're a bit too thick in the forefoot for me. These Intuitions are not quite as thin as the thinnest liners Radar used a couple years back, and they are not as thick as the current liners. They were great right out of the box, then I heat molded them and they fit even better. Stradas or RS-1s aren't as hard on liners as Goode, Reflex or other hard shells. They release fine and are very light weight. Be aware that they are a little taller than the stock liners, but I like the way they look and the extra height has yet to be an issue while skiing. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1530989/Waterskiing/IMG_0453.JPG http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1530989/Waterskiing/IMG_0452.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BraceMaker Posted March 1, 2013 Baller Share Posted March 1, 2013 You can cut them back and sew the edges, but why bother! Also FM's "Splash" liner is the same one, but 75 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller scuppers Posted March 1, 2013 Baller Share Posted March 1, 2013 @SkiJay Where can I get one of those "ski stands" in your picture? Looks like the hot set-up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller alex38 Posted March 4, 2013 Author Baller Share Posted March 4, 2013 Got my pair of strada liners size 10 for my rs-1 shells size 10, they do seem tight in the shells in the living room. Will heating them help that? And does anyone have specs on heating them? Should I keep in mind they are dry and brand new? They also came with footbeds which seem to really tighten them up so I took em out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller SkiJay Posted March 4, 2013 Baller Share Posted March 4, 2013 @alex38 heat molding makes a big difference. There are varying opinions on this but I'm a big fan of putting a set of good orthotic liners like Superfeet in the bottom of the shell first, then do the heat moulding. Save the stock footbeds for when you sell them. For heat molding instructions, google "heat molding Intuition liners" on youtube. There's tons of good videos.
