Does the arch pain happen off the slopes as well?

No. Never have foot issues except for when I snowboard. I’m pretty sure it’s the bindings. The strap pushes down on my foot instead of in on my ankle and causes the arch muscles to do too much work. At least that is what it feels like.

I have the same problem with a current pair of bindings and it’s the heal strap. It’s too cushioned, so I’m order to get a snug and responsive fit, I have to crank it down, which then pushes down on my arch too much. I’d either get a more firm/stuff boot, or buy different heal straps, or both. If you have Burton bindings, you can buy their current heel strap system for $20 each and should help prevent that issue.
