Jim, I had to go back and re-read your post. I can see where the boot may not beneift certain people but don't you think it could benefit many others?

Just to clarify, wasn't me, was John.

However, I sort of agree with Lynn. I had always assumed it was mostly gimmicky. Seems like many guys walk with their feet pointing out at 40 degrees and they always seem to ride the chairlift with the tips of their skis wide apart, so I assumed that having the boot accomodate that angle was a comfort thing.? Given that, it is pretty amazing to me that they are targeting the racers and not so much the recreational skiers, and that there is enough acceptance of the Fischer SOMA product line that Nordica has also chosen that.
