Hello, I am hoping to learn some information on shin bang solutions from experienced fitters. I am working with a very well qualified boot fitter that is committed to taking care of me so my questions here are just for my extra education and further discussion with the fitter the next time I am in the shop. I stepped into a new pair of Fischer CURV GT 130 this year. For years I have struggled with boots too big. My foot measures over a 29 with a 100mm forefoot width but very narrow heels and ankles. I was previously in a 28.5 Hawx Ultra and I swam in that boot. This year I went to the Fischer because it was the most narrow lasted (96mm) "non-race" boot I could find. The fitter vacuum squeezed the boot as hard as possible in the rear section. The first fit in the shop felt firm and good but upon skiing them now for 10 days I am getting major bruising on my upper shin. It turns out that the tongue of the boot only contacts my shin at the upper edge of the plastic cuff and when I flex into it while skiing all the force is being directed upon a 1" section of my shin. There is no slop between my leg and the upper cuff, this is just an intense pressure point and I am not getting contact with the tongue/cuff in the lower part of my shin. It happens with both the stock strap or a Booster run under the cuff and may be worse with the Booster. I have been advised to first try an Eliminator tongue which I will try this weekend in a floating fashion before permanently installing. Is an Eliminator tongue a legitimate fitting tool or is it a band-aid for a bad fitting boot? Are there other remediations that I should discuss with the fitter. We touched upon aftermarket liners, or foam injected tongues also being a possible option to explore. Thanks in advance for any help.
