has anybody ever put their snowboard boot linings in the oven/mircowave?

No, don't do that! Put them in the dryer for about 10 minutes and then put them in your boot and lace your feet in them. Stay like this for about 15 minutes or so. Be careful though, not all liners are dryer safe so make sure you check on this before putting them in there.  good luck!

If you don't want to wait that long try these easy steps:\n(note:  I do this all the time)\n\n1.  place between sheets of wax paper, leave space between them\n\n2.  now that you have them in the wax paper place them inside tin foil.\n\n3.  place in your preheated oven (200 degree or 250 in high altitudes) for 4 hours.\n\nRemove, and there you go.

Well, if it's frozen, then it's not very condusive.  I'd say (from personal experience) that a freshly dropped one has the best chance of conducting just about anything, thermal or nonthermal.  It's the worst during the summer when the pile appears to be dried out and you step on it only to realize that the top crust  is very thin.

I don't know about that, but some of the better stores in Minneapolis have an oven for their skates.  When you buy them, they heat them up and then you wear them, in the store, for about a half hour.  As the skate cools it molds to your foot.

i play outside rinks when its -20 outside and its the greatest feeling sure you bring a toque then after 5 minutes you take it off, ou start to get warm that's if your really playing. you don't need boot warmers just socks will be fine. i just wear a  sweater under my jersey and pants that's all, like i said just after 5 minutes of playing you get warm.

Yes, I worked in a bakery at Alberstons and wanted to scare my skittish friend.  I put on the bright red apron, goggles, and bright blue rubber gloves, and stood in the proof box.  I set the timer for 15 seconds, so she would come turn it off, and check the proofer.  When she did I jumped at her, and she was more scared than I've seen anyone!  We were both hysterical afterward, and of course I apologized a million times.

No. It would have to be extremely cold before one would crack. I've had them in my vehicle when it got down to -10F and nothing happened.

I normally use snowshoes when I take my board up, but it can be a strain on the calves for a steep climb, you get into getter powder though.  That's what most folks where I live (Breckenridge) do.\n\nIf you really want to skin up then I would get some blades (super stubby skies) and mount some snowboard bindings on.  You will have to get creative though because you need to be able to 'free heel' to skin up.  You could try using a pair of Trekkers as the mount, they will also lift you up to stop your mounts from dragging.  It all sounds like too much work and gear...snowshoes of use an AT setup when you want to go up the mountain.

Yes, my wife HAD them. She is a waitress and on her feet running all the time. The Doctor said the only way to get rid of them was an operation.\n\nHowever, we did it by using a heel cushion with a nickel sized hole in the middle in combination with a good anti-inflammatory such as Ibuprofen. You may can find the cushions at Walmart or some drug store.\n\nAfter about a month of this...they were gone.

This works! \n\nGet some Grout from home depot and apply to bottom of shoes.  You'll get better traction and feel when practicing... eventually, you'll get good enough to where you don't need the grout. \n\nAnd don't worry, the grout doesn't harden for at least 2 hours so If you wipe it off by then, it won't stain the board.

you might want to go during the summer to a ski shop. they will have boards that they demoed last year in good condition and good quality for cheap prices. also you might want to get last years modle. i got $1100 skis for $400 and they were really nice. you would also want to get last years modle for boots. that doesn't mean there bad the ski shop just wants to get rid of them. you might want to go to a ski swap because that stuff is usually good. if you need to you might want to use ebay but im not sure the security of that. good luck finding the gear!

NO.  Unless you want to stick your head in a 1600 degree oven for ten minutes.  Sorry can't be done

Yes but only because they did not wear properly and the soles actually broke of the shoes. I recieved store credit and was happy.\nCan I rat on someone though????\nHer mom bought a lovely dress for the daughters wedding and wore it. We had dancing and the reception was quite warm and close as it was the middle of the summer. She was at the affair all evening until quite late. The Monday after she brought the dress back. I couldn't believe it but she did. oh well.
