    Need boot Canting HELP

    I just bought new boots - Dalbello V-Comp. The first days using them thety worked great, but this was powder and crud skiing.

    Yesterday, I was out on groomers and my downhill ski kept shooting out (not staying with the turn). It feels like the ski is toeing toward the inside edge.

    Is this most likely a boot canting issue?

    Do you have footbeds?
    Ever notice this problem before?

    I do have footbeds (not custom ones), and they were inserted from the get go.

    Thanks.

    The footbeds should help, even if you do pronate /supinate. Did you buy yours from a shop that's close by? If so you might want to stop in and explain your problem and have them check your alingment, you can make some pretty minor changes in cuff allingment that will transalate to flatter skis, but isn't something that you can't really do yourself.

    Some additional info,

    Thanks CaddyDaddy77. I am even wondering that when I had the bindings adjusted to the new boots something is not amiss there.
