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 :-)

thunderer, Try Graham Pugh the owner at Rivington Alpine, it's near Bolton/Chorley just off the M61. Open Sundays, give him a call.

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

Outdoor Action, Blackburn two blokes Mark or Ken. They also have some great deals on gear. Have a look up stairs in the sale items. I got a pair of Sprayway salopettes for a fiver, a mountain equipment fleece for a tenner and a Helly Hansen ski jacket for seventeen quid. Can't go wrong.

Thanks guys, Rivington looks just the job.

The problems we are trying to solve:

1. Wifes boots new at start of last season used for 6 weeks skiing, she is now complaining that her heel is lifting and foot sliding forwards, boots have to done up very tightly to prevent, this stopping circulation, will a boot fitter be able to resolve ?.

2. My boots are slightly to tight on a spot just below my inner ankle bone. Can the boot be stretched to accomadate ?

On the wires boots it sounds like they are a little big, might be possible to put some padding in but it will never be a substitute for the correct size/shape

On your boots that is a pretty simple stretch for a boot fitter, make sure your foot is stable on a footbed before you have the shell stretched

Good luck getting it sorted

CEM, Thanks for that. I suspect you are correct on my wifes boots, the problem I guess is that they need to be a little tight at the beginning, do you think?.
