The key to an enjoyable ski outing is a properly fit ski boot. There are several factors invloved in getting a good fit. Here at Double Diamond we specialize in bringing all these factors together to give you the best possible fit. We also offer several custom services using state-of-the-art technology and equipment for those who want the ultimate custom bootfit.
Custom Insoles
Custom insoles or footbeds are molded directly to your feet using the Superfeet vacuum system. We recommend these for anyone who owns a ski boot. The custom insole is designed to address several issues within a ski boot. The main goal is to keep the foot in a neutral position. This helps with overall alignment, and prevents pressure points from developing on the foot. Another benefit is reduced foot motion. This results in greater control and power to the ski. A custom insole also keeps the feet warmer by providing optimal circulation. The most important benefit to the average skier is comfort. Since they ar e molded to your foot, it personalizes the fit for maximum comfort. Call for styles and prices.
Canting
Canting is generally referred to as corrections made to the equipment to provide proper knee alignment in relation to the ski boot midline. We offer several different options for achieving this, from shims under the binding to planing the boot sole. Each case is unique so a thorough analysis is required, as is a custom insole. Call for pricing or to set up an appointment.
Fore-Aft Alignment
Fore-Aft balance basically refers to one's center of gravity in relation to the tip and tail of the ski. The entire boot, ski, and binding system influence this balance. We can analyze your current setup and provide corrections where needed. This procedure requires a detailed analysis, and a custom insole. Call for pricing or to set up an appointment.
The custom services above are just a few of the services we provide. We also offer foam liners, heat systems, and custom boot modifications. We have a highly trained and experienced staff to assist you with any boot issues you may have.
