Are they mounted against my socks, or on the front of my boot tongue? "Behind" could mean either side. Is there a video?

Hi. These are meant to go between your shin/socks and the boot tongue. I have really skinny lower legs and have struggled with over buckling my boots. I now just slide these in before buckling, and have instant pressure on the tongue translating to better performance. I wish I discovered these 10 years ago. I personally don’t leave them in the boots permanently. I just slide them in right before buckling.

Are these good for preventing shin bruising when snow skiing? I have a problem when snow skiing, where my shins get bruised from my ski boots

Hi, Thanks for reaching out! The Tongue Eliminator can help mitigate "shin bang" in a ski boot, but that is never guaranteed. There are many different reasons why a ski boot can cause a shin bang. Some of the most common reasons are: - mobile foot causing shin to move UP/DOWN in the boot - pronation that causes the shaft of the leg to rotate out of the critical comfort zone on the boot tongue - foot too high or too low in the boot shell causing the hinge point to be too high or too low - an upper cuff that is too loose causing the shin to slam into the shell instead of flexing the shell - and about half a dozen more causes The Tongue Eliminator can solve about a third of those issues. For mobile feet and pronation issues, you need a custom insole to stabilize the foot, and for foot positioning, you need to have your foot and boot shell assessed to see if adding a shim or shaving away part of the boot board will position your ankle better with respect to the hinge point of the ski boot. I would look at the Tongue Eliminator as an inexpensive experiment to see if the issue is resolved. But long-term solutions always come the hard way—that is, by finding a knowledgeable boot fitter, getting an assessment, and working through the fit issues. Best, Masterfit
