I went to the fitting appointment with a close friend last season.  I also filmed the whole thing, but I'm not sure where that is at the moment (it was on an old camera).

My concern is that the custom fitting is certainly quite adaptive, but it's not going to perform miracles.  If the shell isn't somewhat close to being sized correctly and generally fit right then I would certainly approach them with caution.

There were tons of complaints about the liners last season.  It's like they completely forgot that the liner really needs to be customized along with the shell.  My buddy ended up ditching the liners and switching to a pair of ZipFit Worldcups that I had available.

Last season was really a learning period for Fischer and the fitters.  I would assume that there will be more success this season using what everyone has learned.
