There should be a lot of them but I would like to get a recommendation from Pugski if I can.
My problem is that I changed boots from my old Tecnica Mach 1 110 MV to Tecnica Mach 1 120 LV last year. The fit felt great at first and my skiing was much better but after a couple of weeks I needed the sixth toe area enlarged. Not wanting to go back to a sloppy fit I asked my guy in Whitefish to just nudge them out a little bit which he did. But after 53 days and 1 million plus vertical feet I had managed to give myself permanent "tailor's bunions". I've elected to not do any surgery this year and I'll get cortisone shots before I head north in January to minimize the issue hopefully.
But that leaves me with either going back to my sloppy MV boots with new liners or radically blowing out the toe box of the LV boots. I'm quite concerned that I'm going to get to Whitefish on a planned 60 day trip and have to sit on the sideline with crippled feet. We have a few days in Dillon CO planned before we get there so I'd like to get the situation dealt with there if possible.
So best shop and person? We arrive late on Jan 7th so I'd like to be waiting on the doorstep bright and early on Wednesday Jan 8th if possible. A good cup of coffee would be appreciated as I will likely be delirious from the altitude by then. Or if the espresso machine is broken I'll pick some up for both of us.
This is hugely important for the future of my 2020 season so I need someone who knows how to solve problems!
... yes, it's all about me!
Thanks in advance,
Fuller
