[QUOTE="PSJBrock, post: 100685, member: 1050"] Riding on the balls of your feet will also save your knees. If you ride on the center of your feet or heels and your toes are pointed out you have a high chance of catching a rut and destroying a knee. This is even more critical it you have a larger boot because your foot hangs out further. Knee braces wont protect in this situation unless you use the anti rotation strap that only asterisks offer. Even then the rotation of the foot causing twisting of the knee is a knee KILLER. I wasn't taught balls of the feet I was taught more point your toes in. You can grip better and save your knees. It has worked well for me but I only wear a 9 boot. [/QUOTE]
