[RC] foaming on easy boots - Kathleen A. CrothersHi, I've used the easy foam to foam easy boots on over my horse's front shoes and liked how it kept the boots on and the hoof in better shape than not foaming them on. However, the last time I did that I ended up ruining the boots just trying to get them off the horse 4 days after riding 50 miles 2 days in a row on hard packed trails and roads. I even soaked his hooves and he was running out on dew covered grass the 4 days after the ride. The cable and buckle even broke on one boot and even though I foamed them on without the back strap they still stayed on. I want to try foaming them on again for the muddy fall rides and wondered if anyone had any ideas of how to make it easier to get the foam out after the ride and still keep them on during the ride. I kinda remember hearing something years ago that people sprayed pam spray in them before they foamed them on to make removing the easier. Would using duck tape in the boot help? I haven't tried using the foam with the ne wer boots so maybe without the little nobbies in the sole that it might be easier to get the foam off after use. Thanks for any suggestions, etc. Happy Trails, Kathy =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
