Hey Jim...I believe why the boot fitter did that was because it had to do with the lug on the toe and heel and the angle that it connects to the binding. There were some saftey and release issues he was concerned with making that 5mm change.

Another boot...no no no...those boots had the best internal shell fit to my foot and well...I had already purchased them. Hmmm, my new motto, find a boot that is perfectly shaped to the foot and then "fix it"!

In addition to those changes, the 6th toe was slightly ground out, the toe box was slightly widened, I softened the flex with some grinding of the inner cuff and put on Booster Strap.

"Is it soup yet"?......for sure, perfecto!? ;D G
