Probably true, but I happen to be coming at this from a different angle (pardon the pun  ).  I have actually increased the forward lean in my boots, and feel far more balanced and centered and in control of my skis.  Less upright, certainly, but definitely a more aggressive but balanced stance that is working very well for me.

Mind you, I could always reduce the forward lean, and move my bindings forward..... 

Just kidding!

I still find myself in the back seat at times, although far less than with my prior more upright stance, but have to force myself forward occasionally.  I'm probing this ramp angle thing with the thinking that this might help me get more forward without the effort. 

So.....if I want to experiment, can I safely put a couple of little temporary shims under the toes of my boots and try this on an easy blue slope? Will my boots still fit into the toepiece if I try, say, 2mm of hockey tape? Or do I risk a non-release in the unlikely event that I should fall?
