2020 Update: Better Board Shoes Make for Better Riding!
-
@bmtka so true. I am hitting the Nike outlet this weekend and will keep an eye open for deals.
-
@LidPhones I was just at the one at Potomac Mills when I was visiting the area. They had nothing in my size (6.5M). They had plenty of black/red/white Dunk SBs in larger sizes though. You should definitely snag a pair of those if you can. I'm such a girl when it comes to shoes and bags, I have FOUR pair of Dunk SBs already. Watch Tactics.com for deals too.
-
@bmtka thanks for the link. I had not been to that site before. I like it.
-
Wow these Nike SB Zooms really stick and have some good cushion. Only a quick 3 mile ride with good carving session. I like them so far.

4th of July Ride... Love'n the Nike's
I got to experience a nosedive going up hill too fast at my weight. I was able to run it out and not go down. It was close but pulled it off.
-
Flip flops work just fine for me...
-
@Count I have also seen a video I believe with a rider using bare feet. That method would connect well with the OW but I fear that a toe or two could be lost at some point. It would depend on how aggressively the OW is ridden.
-
I recently tried some boat shoes sockless and it's as close to riding barefoot as can get.
-
I have ridden bare foot many times, but I have taken a spill or 2, which I was not able to correlate to anything I did, and assumed it may have been a poor contact to the touch pad issue. On road, I am definitely wearing shoes, but on the beach, flips work fine for me!
-
@Count I just rode with some Clark closed toe sandals and must say the feel was nice and locked in. Also a bit freeing too.
-
I completed a 6 mile ride to the gym and back on Sunday around noon. Then another 3 miles helping the neighborhood kids (mine included) with Pokemon Go Sunday evening. The Nike SB Zooms remain as my favorite board shoes for the long rides on pavement and grass.

Proof of my shoes ....
-
@Aaron-Broward-FL I like the look of the red blades and the blue OW.
-
@Aaron-Broward-FL here is a shot of my grey blades on the OW.

Well, just got these from Sport Authority.
Not bad so far..
-
@sonny123 Very nice. I like the blue with natural sole.

Looks like I should buy another pair as the prices have dropped another $20 or so depending on the model.
