Months ago I had one reader ask about BOA and mention that his local shops were not familiar with the system. So the idea came forward about visiting BOA and making a video that would show how to fix a broken lace if it happened on the BOA boot. I’ve never had my cable break and I wanted to learn as well.
Ilya Minkin from BOA is demonstrating in the video on the different BOA and each way to fix & replace the laces.

oh my shay, this post is golden! luckily my boa’s have been holding up great but i’m sure there are quite a few people out there looking for exactly this video and you just made their day!
thank you so much for going through the trouble to help everyone out, it’s greatly appreciated =]
i would download the video if i could, or at least maybe post it on youtube or something?

yeah super easy! what a fucking joke. Boa is garbage.

Thanks! I think it’s great to have out there just in case of something happening and I’m a more visual person so it’s good to see it done than read about it.
I put it on youtube as well here
If BOA was garbage, companies wouldn’t pay to use it and people wouldn’t keep buying it. I’ve kept to BOA boots since 02 because I like it.
