Boot stuck in left footwell stirrup

[Snowlover]

2014 pro, stock boards, HMK boots. Foot gets stuck. Twisted knee a little, but could be disaster. Klim boots are a tiny bit less tall, but anyone have a solution? After market boards give more room? I’m only a size 10 foot

Yeah, once in a deep powder donut, tipped over and was stuck laying on side of sled and struggled to get out. The knee twist is the last straw.

A little searching found Everett ankle savers. Looks like that’s what will work. HMK boots have a shorter toe box and get stuck easier than the klims but these are cheaper than a new set of boots and I can keep my hmk’s

I'm the guy that makes the Everett Ankle Savers. I've been running them for many years and they work awesome. Many happy customers too. I'm taking orders now, on a limited run. Shipping to begin around 10/15/19. So, get your order in. You can either send me a PM to get a set or you can also order on the Everett Sports site here: http://everettsports.net/anklesavers.html

I saw a thread about bending the stirrup up 3/4" Looks like a decent solution.

Didn’t look much before opening my mouth. Lots of chatter about this. I’m just behind the times. Looks like a few suggestions.

why not just cut the bar off? then you can move feet all the way forward when needed.

No down side. Have cut them off our pro's and axys's. Wrenched my knee last year and had enough ... Can now move further forward which is a benefit and now easier to bail when need be without getting dragged. 20 minute easy fix.

May do that, but found part of the cause. Bought it used and it’s in good shape, but after posting my boot issue, I looked it over close and the left stirrup area is bent Like someone kicked it hard and bent the vertical piece in a u shape so it lets my foot stick in at least an inch further which gets to the the taller part of my boot with the cross bar. Also, the running board is tweaked up about 1/2 inch making it even a shorter space. I’ll fix that first, then chose the next step.

More reason to cut it off. Cheapest mod done so far!!

I saw a post the other day where somebody just made a toe-blockoff with a piece of rubber strap, pretty simple solution for a huge problem.

I Don't know if Bryan ( B&M Fab) still sell this modification- but I sure bought a boat load of them when the old Pro was the top of the line.
It works and looks CLEAN!!!.
