Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

My wife likes her boots (Head). They were "fitted" many years ago when she was a novice skier, and since then she has started to wonder if a closer fitting would be appropriate.
My boots are a really close fit (so much so, that a different sock makes doing them up impossible!). The question is:
Is it worth getting a new fit on a new liner, merely changing the footbed with the existing liner, or throw the lot away and start again with a new boot?

Yes, no, maybe. It depends.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Remove liner from boots, foot in empty shell, toes lightly touching front of boot. Slide a suitably sized object (eg marker pen) into the gap behind her heel. What is the diameter of an object that fits perfectly in the gap?
Centralise foot in shell, how many mm gap on either side of the foot at the widest part?
Answer to the above will give us info to start to answer your question.
