I agree wholeheartedly to what Truman is saying about the Easyboots.  The main
reason that paraders use the borium instead is cosmetic, and the "grab"  is
not such a factor at a walk.  However, if one is parading and has no reason to
NOT to use Easyboots, or simply has a temporary need to ride on pavement for
other reasons, the Easyboots are a great solution.
