Powershell Centering
Chris
I know you used to ski with Goode powershells and I am looking for advice on centering the front shell. If I use the molding line on the shell, it appears that the boot is off center towards the little toe side of the ski. Looking at the Radar boots centering arrow, it appears that the boot favors the toe side of the ski. Any suggestions or should I just trial and error moving it until it feels good on both on-side and off- side?
Thanks
Paul

Chris,
Paul is my main ski partner that noticed that my Radar RS-1 boots when centered with the arrow don't match up with his PowerShells when centered as recommended by Goode. When you get some time after the Masters lets hear your take since you would be the expert coming from the PoerShells and now skiing on the RS-1's.
Best of luck at the Masters!

Another thing... I've also noticed that my RS1's when centered on notch don't seem to actually be straight. Seems slightly "pigeon toed". I use center hole and rotate very slightly out and it "feels" straight. Maybe just me?

Re: Powershell Centering
I always used the line on the PowerShells and had no problem with it. I would mount to that if you are looking for straight. With the RS1, I run both boots in a more open stance so I did not notice them to be toe in. Use the line as a reference and find the stance you like.
