Same. I think it has to do with how we use our back feet. For me i’m mostly on the ball of my back foot only balancing on it harder when I accelerate, but its kind of a weird position to hold your foot in and my toes go numb.

Those are just the marketing photos.
This is a real-world pair of used Globe Tilt.
The thin sole I think is what makes them good for skate. Total control

To update my statement.
On my hubmotor board i can wear soft and plushy shoes no problem which i do 99% of the time.
On my Pneummies i can’t. Maybe missing control due to the softness? But shouldn’t that be the same of the other one?
My experience commuting 32mi/51km round trip almost every day for a year and a half before covid:
- ride more gets better. ride less comes back.
- shift feet around.
- at lights I will step off the board and roll feet around.
- balance a bit more of the thrust onto front foot by leaning forward a tad more, and not taking the brunt of thrust in the back foot.
- carve when the opportunity presents itself feel the usage of the different parts of your feet. (not a lot during commutes. )

i was using gell insoles with my off-the-walls for a long time. It does help a lot.

I stole the idea from my grandma. Bandaids on the nipples also prevents nip chaffing.

As no one has complained about this before, I thought my feet were being little bitches.
I also find that riding more helps, after some time I can go longer and further without feeling pain. A bit like your body aches when lifting after a long time without exercise, if I just ignore the pain it actually passes.

This is good information for riding shirtless in the cold, like i usually do.

A big ride of 40km+ I still can’t feel my feet for a while unless I am doing pneumatics. I don’t get pain unless I hang my toes over the deck. Gels help but they are not magic bullet.

It’s a pretty big problem for first time PEV riders, ton’s of discussion in OW groups.
I had some a long time ago, thinking about getting these kinda:

site won’t load for me rn 
My steel toe ankle high work boots used to kill me on my board. Tall, awkward, no feel for the road…
Now that combined with 40km+ walking in them daily seems to actually make my commute the pleasure of the day.
Basically what everyone said above. Get the feel for the shoe/board combination, circulate blood and tough out the rest. Or get a car, dunno

I should try to click more on something other than sales threads, derail jail and pics only.

I meant this part being sarcasm, but I’m guessing not now.

I usually see people talking about hours long group ride and I was always thinking that my feet would be on fire after long rides like those.

I guess it would be pretty painful for your first board to have some crazy 50mi+ range…
Especially if you haven’t done board sports.
