If you set up boot forward lean on Head bindings, the boots will have greater lean on Look, since Look bindings have more of a delta. Delta is the difference between binding heel and toe height.

I don't know what bindings a PMTS bootfitter would set up boot forward lean on. I imagine Head bindings?

John, just go get your boots set up by a pro. They may not even make any fore/aft changes.

But if you rent skis then one of the compromises is compensating for whatever the rental shop gives you. There is simply no way around that. Regardless you are making your development much slower than it should be by ignoring a proper boot set up for a decade now.

BigE, delta is not the same as forward lean.
