 Poster: A snowHead

Has anyone used here for bootfitting?
I'm looking to buy my first set of ski boots, and when I went to have a look, they seemed to have a good range, with some electronic feet meauring machine thingy, and a boot oven. Just wondered if anyone had any good/bad reports from there??
My other option is to go to the well reccommended shop in Biscester, but I don't know what the price range there is like/costs etc. If Attwoolls get negative reviews, I will enquire there next I imagine!
Any help is massively appreciated!

Friends just had new boots fitted at the new MyRace shop at Gloucester Ski Slope, they are pretty experienced skiers (2 instructors and 2 racers in the family) so know what is typically involved in the process and came away happy.

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

I've used My- Race at Gloucester a few times now...not for boot fitting, but other equipment. They are in their infancy, but can concur that the staff are very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful.
Really nice to have a shop dedicated to Racing with enthusiastic people locally.
From what I understand, they focus on sourcing equipment from various manufacturers that are old stock...maybe a year or two old...but still unused. Thus the very reasonable prices.

I like their boot prices. Are they really that cheap?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Cheers for the replies guys! I did briefly pop into the My Race shop, and they did seem really friendly, but they seemed quite limited in the brands they held.
I have actually bitten the bullet and booked with CEM for tomorrow, I figure the extra cost is worth it! Going to the MK slope tomorrow evening, so perfect chance to try them out! Excited is an understatement!

Had mine done at Horace Barton in Cheltenham. Son's a racer (I think), was a nice family run place. I was quite impressed.
