Jim and I are hoping for good conditions in the Dillon area this weekend.
I will have boots tweaked on thursday afternoon at the "skunkworks" by Harbs staff.
Have pretty much decided that the foam liners are the way to go. They just fit right.
Much better fit, even in the living room with warm legs and feet, than the ones that come with the new Nordicas.
THe only question is use the current liners or get newer ones. With all the break in time/pain req'd.
I'm a wimp. Hate sore feet.
Lynn,
Reading the above, I'm guessing that you had foam liners done for the old boots and that you have tried the foam liners in the new and have a slight preference for them over the stock liners. Correct?
In my present boot set up, I use Intuition aftermarket liners, similar to the foam concept, and these liners were originally custom fitted for my old boots. I transferred them to the new as they were superior to the stock liner. They work great. I believe John Botti did similar in trying his new boots.
Long way of saying don't be too quick to do new, your existing foams liners (don't know how old they are or what shape they are in) may very well serve the purpose.
Of course, the skunkworks (aka devil's den to Ron) know a lot more than all of us combined.
Also, when you indicate they will be "tweeked" does that include new footbeds / allignment. I'm guessing that you will go through the assessment in your new. Do you presently use shims or boots planing.
I've read very few detailed write up's of the HH process and would be interested in a report out.
Enjoy the new and have great skiing. Don't step on Elvira too much, and, damn, don't let her show you up on the mountain. Strut your alpha female stuff!
