Boot fitting guide
Skier to try boots on without liner and push toes to front. There should be 1.5 to 2 finger distance between heel and liner maximum and err on the small side
With liners back together, boots on and done up skier should be able to easily flex forward in room temperature conditions
Boot cuffs shouldn't be too big. If the skier needs the upper cuff done up to max then the boot cuff is too big
Have the coach check your racer's boots if unsure of fit
