Byron,

Liam works in a ski shop, so, value his knowledge. Ask your bootfitter what insoles he sells and post it here. Some are better than others.

My experience, upon returning to skiing, was that it took some time to adjust to the newer shape skis. I expected way too much in the first turns and no magic happened. By the next day, I figured it out - a little. Very quickly, I did hit a plateau and I had no idea how to get better. Several who post here are ardent followers of Harald Harb's PMTS ski technique and that's where I learned, via books and CD, how to perform the correct body movements needed to make the new skis perform. Harald has some YouTube video, I'll check later to see if there is a very basic one showing how to "tip your skis".
