I eat avocados, especially when they're in season here! If other people don't like them, then all the more for me. Don't tell people they're delicious!

I've relocated the ankle (3rd) buckle as well as cut a smaller amount of plastic than many. BTS and Booster straps. Intec cable on the inside of the boot.
