Jim, Some people feel discomfort with the increased width at low edge angles. But for others it takes a higher edge angle and skiing for a longer period of time to feel it.
...
... Increasing the edge angle with tipping as the turn builds takes a much higher level of effort.

I absolutely agree.  People with weak legs that try to tip to turn will feel the difference almost immediately, I would think.
People in better shape and with stronger legs will take more hours on the ski and/or skiing at faster speeds to notice the difference.


But I do notice it in the pressure of my ankles against the inside of the boot almost immediately.
