The guy writing this is apparently a snowboarder.

One point: I have driven a VW Bug wearing ski boots.

When I owned a VW Bug, my ski boots were soft
enough to drive it. And I did so too.

did your leathers have an instep strap? lace-up inners? fancy boot press
to flatten the sole?

those things were like modern hiking boots.
you could dance in them, if there was a girl your age at the apre ski party.

of course you could drive in them; except I didn't have a car.
