Hey guys. I have a pair of Nordica Cruise 110's from maybe 3 years ago. I have a small alignment issue in my right foot, and had some canting work done (1 degree). I'm not exactly sure what was done, but I believe my native sole was planed down medial (high) to lateral (low) and lifters were placed under the native sole for a flat surface to engage the binding and protect the cant. I admit, I may not be understanding the process correctly. This year, I went to demo skis in Mammoth and was told my boots didn't pass for demo ski fitting because the lifter plates had worn down to where they wouldn't be safe in the binding. I was wondering if this makes sense, and if I could just replace the lifter plates or if something needs to be done under them (epoxy maybe?) to maintain the cant and have them ski like they have been. Here are some pictures:
As you can see, the medial aspect of the native boot sole (under the black lifter plate) has not been ground (ridges present) and the lateral aspect has been ground (ridges absent). Any ideas about what to do? Thanks!
