I have kind of a permanent/recurring pain in that area. Tendonitis in the pereneal tendon, maybe? But up higher, not in the ankle. Caused almost exclusively in ski boots, so if anyone has a real fix,...

If part of the problem is the cuff height, consider "short cuff" boots, like the Lange SC (upright) or the Head Raptor B5 (more forward).

Last I checked, the most forward lean would be an...

I love ski yard and I've bought 3 pairs of boots from them. If lordF thinks he can go to a 27.5 and 150 flex, they have the 150 WC for USD $90.

Lange boots are pretty upright and soft in the forward flex. At 160# I can bottom out the RX 130, so it makes total sense that you'd find them too soft. I also thought there was a lot of ankle volume...

^^Any reason you can't go to a lower volume liner?

I sometimes have a ton of pain in that region, too.

It went away with different liners and strengthening my legs. Started up a few season ago after skiing much more than usual, and it has been...

Just go to Martin and do whatever he recommends.

What's your home mountain?

Seems like Issue #2 would likely be fixed by a new liner...which may fix Issue #1 as well.

Yeah, it's the Central High Slim. When I posted that, I was having trouble getting their site to load for whatever reason. Your link works, tho.

So I still haven't been able to ski my Vulcans yet, and I don't want to spread misinformation so take this with a big grain of salt. But it seems like I had a similar experience as you—right between...

^^ You seem to have forgotten the key pieces of information:

My guess is old goat is correct. I've been dealing with pain in a similar spot (though more at 8 and 10 o'clock than 10-11), and I'm still trying to figure out if it's the boots or an overuse issue....

Yeah, figured you meant canting (sorry I wasn't obvious in my question). Time to see the bootfitter.

Thanks again for your help, dude. It always amazes me how patient you are trying to fit boots...

Will try a 2nd power strap around the liner only. The rear spoiler is in the top of the boot. What exactly do you mean by "move the cuff to the side that hurts?"

Sounds like I just need to make...

Well that escalated quickly. :rolleyes2 I'm not part of the dick-swinging I-ski-a-150-flex-race-boot-so-I-must-be-awesome gang. If I need a 150 flex boot than so be it, but at 5'11", 165#, I find...

Okay, so I need to do something. My boots (Full Tilts) are killing me. I've skied 8 of the past 10 days, and I can barely stand because of the pain in my peroneous longus muscle (at least, that's...

mntlion is a professional -- I'm basically some guy off the street. So listen to him. But I would mold liners first before messing with the shell. Here's what I'd do:

1. Mold the liner. Tons...
