Welcome to Race Day 2016 at Steiner’s Sports as always I have Factory Reps on hand to help guide your Athlete with equipment selection from Fischer, Nordica, Lange, Rossingnol, POC, BRIKO , Dynastar, Atomic and Head. Garrick Dardani Master Boot Fitter, ski boot Tester for SKI/Skiing Magazine, Race program Director and head U19 coach is here to do everything possible to make your athlete perform to their potential. Also on hand will be some of your favorite coaches.
Boots are the most important piece of the skiing puzzle. All age groups and ability levels will benefit from getting set up properly in their boots. This means assessed for size, flex, width, Height of boot and performance level.
Besides fit and flex we need to get the alignment of the boots right, that means that the forward angle is right for you, the lateral cant , cuff alignment is set right, do the knees track correctly?; this is called lateral stance balance.
Ski & Binding: besides brand, size and flex, it is critical to determine the correct binding ramp angle this is the difference in height from the heel to the toe piece. I determine a starting delta angle based on the ankle flexibility, center of mass of athlete, boot set up and event SL/GS…

At fit Day I can size up boots and do an assessment but many times we will need to schedule an appointment for the full fitting. This is too important to rush through.
