Any Boots Good for Stuntin'

I was recently doing a rolling stoppie and lost my balance... fell to the right and the bike landed on my foot! hurt.. sucked.. end of story. Now Im wondering does anyone wear boots when they stunt.. I know shoes are easier to move in, but I'll take a little away from flexablity to gain some stregth... Any ideas or brands?

Re: Any Boots Good for Stuntin'

snowboard boots thats about it. Just start to learn how to fall lol. Moving around a bike is going to require some ankel motion you might not wanna hve it too restricted. You can always go to walmart and find some steel toe shoes (el cheapos) if your worried about your toes gettin smashed

Re: Any Boots Good for Stuntin'

I ware full neck boots that people use for construction. Yes it does limit movement but not so much that you can not stunt. Takes few attempts to get used to it and they are best for protection.

Shift Fuel boots are sweet they are the first boot that I can actually stunt to my full potential in.

Re: Any Boots Good for Stuntin'

I can barely shift with the icon boots on. They are bulky. You have to use the side of the sole to catch the shift lever.

God I hated that class I was playing around on my 954 when I did the class it was nothing but baggers and they almost kicked me out cause I was going too fast through the cones on the weaving portion.... Im like im on a street bike not a bagger, like everyone else in the class

Re: Any Boots Good for Stuntin'

This is probably a dumb question. What is an M1? Like the tank?
