Fantastic Skiing

As usual for me while skiing, my feet hurt very badly.  I've tried several boots over the years and nothing has helped.  I have simply accepted this as standard for me and loosen my boots at the end of every run.  This allows me to withstand the pain for about half a day, so that when i'm in the "Alm" i can remove them and blood can flow back into the numb toes.
However, by Thursday of this week i simply could no longer stand it and decided to rent some boots on the off chance that they'd be a bit better.  While doing this at the shop i decided to rent some skis along  with the boots so that i could try something new.  My skis had been giving me some problems also (Volkl F1) and so i got some Atomic GS12 race carvers and a pair of Atomic boots.
As soon as i tried the boots on in the shop i noticed they were different.  They were immediately snug while sliding into them, but did not immediately hurt.  In fact, the bindings of the boots did not make them that much tighter.  I noticed that my foot was held completely in the boot, but no pain!
When i then arrived at the top of the mountain, put on my skis and traveled 10 meters i immediatel noticed a massive difference.  No pain in my feet and the skis seemed to almost turn on their own.  The slightest angle change of my knees and i would turn!  So, now i've got a task to find a good deal on these skis, as when i returned them and inquired about the price to purchase them i was a bit shocked: 800 Euros, for the skis alone!  I gave it a pass...
In summary, the next two days were some of the best skiing that i had ever experienced.  Skiing was completely fun again!  Here some pics to prove it!
