I couldn’t wait until my next regular slope session, so I managed to fit in an additional one, so I could try out my new boots. I take one with me to collect my hire skis, they need some details from them to ensure the binding is set up correctly. Once collected I put on my new boots which are very snug, Dan had advised me that they will feel like this until they are worn in.

 

I had off to the slope and can tell the difference immediately, I feel more in control of my skis. I start my first run gingerly not sure what would happen now I have new boots. All goes well so I continue completing runs, my feet and legs are aching slightly, I am assuming that this down to the tight fit and them not being used to it, I continue on the more I do the quicker they will wear in.

Reflection: My skiing felt so much better in my new purchase, money well spent and all bodes well for my progress.
