Product Description
The Eliminator is a semi-soft foam pad with a smooth inner face that's designed to fit snugly behind your existing boot tongue. The Autoadapt foam material custom-molds to your shin over time. They can help cure a myriad of ills, including shin bite relief, heel lifting and elimination of instep pain from over buckling...particularly in snowboard boots. They also reduces or eliminates excess room in upper boot cuffs... especially valuable for folks with thin legs or calves who have previously not been able to enjoy all the control boots are designed to deliver without cranking boot buckles impossibly tight, which usually has the undesirable effect of overly stiffening the forward boot flex.

Good to hold the foot down
My problem was low volume feet. The tongue shim is long enough so the lower section takes up space and helps hold the foot down without excessively tightening the buckles. Step #1 is Bontex insole shims (done). Step #2 is tongue shims. Works well.

Just what I needed
I have narrow feet without a lot of volume and boots that are packing out. The boots fit better than ever and I can likely get another season or two out of them. No more heel lift and the shin protection is great. I highly recommend these. I am using them as is with no trimming etc. The increased responsiveness of my skis is amazing as my feet are now locked in place.

Needs contact cement and trimming
This gadget seems to take up the volume for my skinny legs, but it needed to be trimmed and it was a bit of a pain to adjust the positioning before I cemented it in place. It seems like cheaper tongue pads would do the same thing.

Porblem solved !
After several boot fitting experiences, the Eliminator solved my heal lifting problem. Current boot are Garmont Voodoos

Clutch!
I had been dealing with shin splints for the past couple seasons. With Eliminators - no more of that! Made my boots fit snug all the way through the ankle and shin
-
Great eliminator
Keeps my heel to the back of the boots and fills in all space and moving about of my shin against the tongue of the boot. Great invention!

Didn't work for me.
A good idea on paper, just didn't work for me.

Very effective
Good quality, comfortably takes up excess space in heal area and upper boot.

Finally my boots fit!!
I am 6'5" tall and have skinny lower legs. I have tried many ways to get boots tight enough around my lower leg - buckle really tight, different liners, etc. None of the previous attempts achieved a really good, comfortable fit. If you boots are loose around the calf, forget good control of the skis. I bought a pair of large Eliminators and now I am happy!! They fill the space and conform to your shin. I ski with good control and I don't need to carry a screwdriver to lever my boot buckles and warp the plastic to get them tight enough. Buy these and you won't be sorry!
