If your boots have adjustable ramp and/or forward lean angles, or adjustable
flex, how do you know which settings are right for you?
Based on research at our Harb Skier Alignment Centers, this chart provides
initial settings that will work well for many skiers. It's simple to take
advantage of the customization available in your boots to achieve better
balance. After you've set the boots to the recommended initial setting
and skied a few times, you can refine your boot settings if you desire.
