WOMEN SKIERS:
Does this sound like you?
– Do your skis wander or cross?
– Do your heels lift up in your boots?
– Do your feet move in your boots?
– Do you lean back on your skis?
– Do you fatigue easily?
– Do your feet get cold or tired?
– Do you ski “knock-kneed?”

In the fall Jeannie’s partners include specialty ski shops that bring her expertise to the skiing public in 2-3 day sessions.
Boots
Your feet should never be cold or in pain. The comfort of toes, insteps, heels and calves all affect your ability to control your skis. Even boots specifically designed for women still need custom tweaking to achieve optimal fit. Boots should fit like gloves, not mittens.
