    I am primarily a longboarder and I can't quite find the right booties that will allow me to cross step like I can when i'm not wearing booties.<br /><br />Any suggestions?

    Um.... Seriously??? Maybe try some practice. The first few times anyone gets the.booties back on, it never.feels right... It takes time

    Get a size or two smaller than you normally wear.

    The Rip Curl Rubber Soul booties are really the answer. My girlfriend just bought a pair of "Rubber Souls" and I have worn a previous model. I hate wearing booties, so I try to find simplistic booties that are one-piece like a sock. They won't catch and you'll forget you're even wearing booties. Either way, try to find a one-piece like these, the R2 booties or O'Neill Gooru series. Good luck, man.

    Prepare yourself: this is the SI Forum, and there will be more irrelevancy. Much more.
