I have seen athletes who have started out on center and they can't buy an edge with this boot. The problem is you start outside and it's more difficult to roll the boot on edge, then you get the opposite, it swings way inside near the bottom of the arc.
One of the conflicting opinions I've read online is the Fischer Soma abducted stance works better for bowlegged skiers. So if I'm understanding the above correctly, the boot would be a disaster for a knock kneed skier. I'm knocked kneed so this thread has saved me mucho $ and frustration. Thanks.
