ski boots

Part of 16 travelling in Feb - all 1st time skiers.
Age range from 12 to mid 40's.
Any tips when trying boots for the first time.
I have heard that if your boots are not right for you it can ruin your week.
Is it just a case of - if they feel ok they will do.
Any advice greatly appreciated.

re: ski boots

Make sure you get a good fit, you want movement in the toes, a little, but you want a firm fit accross the widest part of your foot, With rental boots you may find that beacause they have being worn prevously they are a really good fit, on the other hand they may not. Its important to try on a few pairs to make sure they fit.

Where are you going, i'm of to bansko 12th-19th feb.
