i have had my fulltilt high fives for 2.5 seasons and they stink. i mean really smell bad. if I put my hand in to adjust the liner they make my hand smell bad. i cant even keep them in the back of my car without smelling them. i have tried to air them out for a week and also used laundry sheets to make them smell better but it just turns bad after one use. are there any other tricks to making them smell good or should i cut my losses and buy a new liner?

put them in the freezer for 24 hours or so. the bad smell is usually bacteria, and if you freeze your liners it kills them. also make sure you DRY your liners every day after you ski, and stick a dryer sheet in em at the end of the day, keeps em smelling good.

Really, Asa? really?

Anyway, putting your liners in the freezer works just as well as heat, just remember to take them out a day or too before you ski to warm up/thaw out

next time make sure to wear clean socks every time, also take good care of your feet and make sure to always dry your liners after skiing, you shouldn't get smelly liners if you follow these simple rules....

now your best bet would be freezing them, then febreze and airing them out ....

if it's really desperate you could try handwashing them with mirazyme, this is an enzyme based washing product that is completely safe and will remove bad odors on a biological way....

you can find em in the better sports store...

also good scuba diving shops tend to have these ...

1. Fill liner with baking soda.
2. Add vinegar.
3. Put in oven at 450 for 10 minutes
4. Soak in salt water.
5. Dry with blowtorch.
