My old custom ones have died, they were a gift from my parents and I don't have that kind of $$$ to shell out now, anyone have a good aftermarket footbed that doesn't cost an arm and a leg?

For sure, you have to be lost to find a place that can't be found, elseways everyone would know where it was

I had a good experience with Surefoot, as did a buddy of mine (two different locations). One great thing about them is that they have so many locations, you can pretty much have things tweaked when ever and where ever. Sadly, I don't remember how much I paid for them as I got them at Whistler a couple of years ago. Still quite satisfied.
I'd be interested to hear what others have to say about them...
I've also heard good things about footbeds from Aspen East at the base of the K-mart access road.

don't know if they still make them, but "peterson" orthotics, have been the best I've ever owned.
I think they also go by the mame of "ergodynamics"
I've gone through a few pair of superfeet, and hated all of them.

I bought the standard non-custom green surefoot beds and they work pretty well for me..Originally posted by road trip

I've got superfeet, and love 'em. I also have the digital imaging kind, like I think surefoot uses, but don't like 'em nearly as much. The arches are too high. Heat-molded cork, in my opinion, is the way to go.

unweighted versus weighted footbeds, KD how many day on the weighted ones (digital imiging kind)??Originally posted by KevinDineen

Prefer Superfeet full corks myself. A cheaper route may be to get what are called 3/4 corks, not quite as much support as a full but a bit cheaper, and still a good footbed.Skiing, where my mind is even if my body isn't.

Have the SuperFeet full kork in the ski boots, generic superfeet in the snowboard boots. Both work well. Factory footbeds in the CCM Tacks
