To bring some interim closure to the alignment issue, I am not going to get boot planning done. There are 3 principal reasons.

First, both Gary and Helluva, while not experts, state my alignment is not that far off. Even measured, we were only looking at 1 or 1.5 degrees.

Second, in my skiing, I can't state I feel a major difference with or without the shims during my 5 day NY trip. I have reviewed Helluva's video and my skiing just sucks. No doubt, I am not tipping my inside leg and counter balance is absent. I'll look at allignment when I am happier about my skiing. This may be counterintuitive, but, that's how I see it.

Third, my knees hurt for 2 days following skiing and that is unusual. I did ski with wide skis for half the days, so, that contributes to the pain.

I will continue to experiment, and, see how it progresses.
