I just bought myself some new Nordica Nrgy 3's (So Happy with them!!) for this season from a new Shop in Canterbury, and while they were doing the fitting they actually got me to ski on this cool simulator in the shop in my new boots.
Now I've tried out Skiers Edge at the Ski show, but this thing was in another league. They even gave me a few technique pointers while they were at it. Last time i bought new boots I just had to walk around in them for a while to see if they were comfy, but these guys had me carving away in the boots.
They're ski boots, they said it works the same for board boots too though, I'm probably going to be going back and have a few 'training' sessions to get my ski legs going before I head out to resort in January
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Vastparadox - I have been looking at going to them for my new boots - but they didnt seem to have very much choice (according to their web site)?
How does the actual boot fitting process compare to Captains Cabin or Snow and Rock - are they through??
Dippy - Sorry haven't been on to reply, there range isn't the biggest, but they seemed pretty clued up, asked me the right questions, even got the fit sticks out when they did my shell fits! Probably worth popping in to have a look or just a chat about what they can do for you, I think they really enjoy what they do in there
Then you can post your own questions or snow reports...

Old running machine and some skate board axles? I presume you hold on to something to stop you from being catapulted across the shop? The skiers edge machines look good but are too pricey for my liking.
After all it is free

That does look so cool. I want to give it a go, though as@Whitty, says, i'd be worried about being flung 10m across the room

That's exactly what I said before I got on it , but you've got bars all around to hold onto and they had little lines on the front that stopped it going to far back. Apparently they have a blind school that come down to use it for their kids that are off skiing, not sure I could do it with my eyes closed though
