We should all be appreciatve of the work ski patrollers do. Unfortunately their work is usually not fully appreciated until something traumatic or catostophic occurs. We all are safer because of the work that members of the ski patrol perform everyday.
I agree totally with getting cudtom footbeds. We bought our sons new ski boots for Christmas had them custom fit with what we thought were custom footbeds. They wore them at the store for a long period of time, tried them out on some local midwest slopes and everything appeared fine. We got out west and it was a different story. The boots were painfully uncomfortable.
Thankfully there was a Surefit nearby and the above referenced method was employed the trip was saved and our sons have boots that comfortably fit and respond correctly. It was costly but worth it.
Thank you for taking the time to read and respond to my blog post. Truckee and Squaw Valley is the area where I was thinking of driving to.
