 Poster: A snowHead
|
I want to experiment with forward lean and before buying some spoilers I wondered if this lateral setting has anything to do with that?

It doesn't change forward lean, it alters the angle the cuff sits on the clog.
Often called "cant", because that's what Londoners shout after fiddling about with it.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@Gustavobs, why do you want more forward?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I want to experiment some forward lean since I did a range test which suggests it would help my balance

@Gustavobs, this is incredibly difficult to get right by yourself. There are bucket ways of doing it at home but the best way is to see someone who knows what they are doing. Andi McCann at Alpine Mccannix is the best bet.

@Gustavobs, this adjuster sets your "cuff alignment". Best to Google it; but basically, it aligns the lateral (side-to-side) position of the cuff (the upper part of the boot), with the natural position of your leg/calves when standing in the boot. So it's *not* to force your leg into any give position — rather to just *align* the cuff with your leg.
"Forward lean" is something else, and is a bit of a complicated subject. Best to Google it, and take a good read. Different fitters have different opinions. But as others have said, Andi McCann at Solutions4Feet is the only guy I've found who really understands it, and can set you up correctly.
Then there is "canting" which is something else again...
