This is normal?I used an old shoes and I had much more grip in pedal.Thanks.although trials shoes are designed to have soft soles im assuming they're relatively new? give it a chance to soften up. plus your old trainers will have 'premade' holes that your pins have been digging in for a long time so it might sit better in the shoe, also depends on sole pattern... a lot of riders use the waffle type sole and find them super grippy.steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Anscombe Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 (edited) The blue and yellow old school monty boots were always the best and always will be .....wish i still had my pair...(dam feet had to grow didnt they )RIBO AND TRY ALL.......both have a much softer solethan viz and monty.....I used to have the try all and i loved mine........nice grip and a good amount of ankle protection.....only problem was they fell appart after around 6 months......but id get another pair if i had the money.......so i got skate shoes.....no ankle protection but the grip and soft sole are still thear Check out duffs skate shoes somthing like 400 nib sole is best dave Edited February 21, 2008 by mrkoxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endohopper Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 It seems that these :...are what Felix Mucke wears , and as such they do me just fine too . Comfortable , surprisingly light , and grippier than blu tack that's been sellotaped to glue . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
