Three days before I went to Nisko to ski a week ago, I quickly packed my ski stuff into the travel bag and got read to ski.
When I took out my ski boots, there was some black mold inside that I hadn't worn during COVID-19, so maybe it was due to the humidity weather. I immediately sprayed the lining with anti-mildew disinfectant and when I saw the little specks of fur starting to peel off from the lining, I immediately washed them off.
After drying, I found that the lining was too stiff that I couldn't put my feet into them. I think about why not just go to the ski resort and rent ski boots in such a hurry now!
But I remember renting skiboots at the ski resort when I didn't have my own boots. After skiing for half a day, I couldn't ski anymore. It hurt, my feet were sore and swollen. The next few days I just was browsing around at the resort, which ruined my ski holiday.
I don't want to ruin my holiday again, I then remember I bought the ski boots at Fun n Snow in Hong Kong. They fit perfectly without any problem. I've worn them skiing for several times.
So I gave it a try, contacted them to see if there was a way to save my boots. When they heard about my situation, they specially arranged a time for me immediately with the bootfitter to inspect my boots.
They replaced me with a new pair of thermal linings and custom pair of insoles, which I could pick up the same day.
Usually they would suggest me to wear them at home for a while to break them in. Since I had to fly early next morning, I just went to the resort to try it!
They also asked me to come back after skiing to adjust the boots if I find any problem.
I have been skiing with the boots for a week without any issues at all. The boots fit great and were easier to control than my previous skis.
Funn snow helped me in such a hurry. I don't have to go through all the trouble of renting skiboots or buying a new pair of skiboots.
I've been back to the shop instead of fitting the boots, I ordered a pair of skis from them to match my current skiboots. As I have been promoted to a next skiing level.
Thanks a lot, Funnsnow! Will come again when my new pair of skis arrived. read more
