    Good, cheap front range bootfitter?

    In bad need of a boot fitter, need a couple areas punched out or ground down. Nasty toe pinch that leaves big toes numb, arch area not wide enough, canting and footbeds. Got rather odd shaped feet and have been flatfooted from birth.
    As my speeds have been increasing I have had a harder and harder time tracking straight. Depending on cost might just go with intuitions, used the ones from my t2x in ex rental boots until I returned the scarpas to REI to buy a real boot. Wanting to ski 5 days a week but the pain is too much.

    The closer to Clear Creek, the better. Would like to avoid harb alignment center as there has already been a conflict with a certain individual there.

    In most cases you can choose good OR cheap. Not both.

    I'll give some more props for Larry at "Larry's Bootfitting" in Boulder. I went in there today to pick up some AT boots and was handled with professionalism. Larry knows his stuff and he'll give you a competitive price (I got some Scarpa Typhoons for $600). Plan on a good 2-3 hours especially if you go on the weekend. Best is to call and make an appointment a week or so in advance. Furthermore, he'll work with you after you've worn your boot (and perhaps gotten some pressure/pain points) to help you grind/heat/punch them out. Good luck.

    Oh, and FYI...while i was in there some people brought in some boots (they hadn't bought them there) for some heat molding and grinding and I think he only charged them like $15.
