Requesting Advice on Ski Boot Fitter in Salt Lake Area for Flat Feet

Slow Sarah

I will be in the SLC, Utah area visiting Deer Valley, Solitude, Brighton and possibly Park City this coming week 4/8-4/13. I am hoping to find a well regarded boot fitter while out there.

My daughter has flat feet and loved skiing but switched to snowboarding which she has quickly excelled at and will likely stick with if we can’t get the foot pain situation worked through. Since we will also be in Deer Valley and she can’t take her board there she will ski with me in DV for a short time.

We already tried two separate custom setups, one at Evo and another in Whistler. She isn’t up for another large expense but my hope is that the right boot fitter might be able to make an adjustment to her current setup that might at least take the edge off or at best maybe help fix the problem.

Any advice or recommendations are appreciated!

Sport loft did wonders for me and my aunt. It is pricey though. For my boots when I initially bought them, they adjusted the cant since I am so short the default cant messed with my stance, later I went in for custom insoles since I tend to collapse my arches and that affected my skiing so much an instructor noticed, and finally I got new liners this year. Next year I will be buying a new shell just cause my current one will be nearing 200 days. I will be going back to sport loft for that :smile:

hope she finds something that works and isn’t too expensive

Will keep them in mind as well and thanks for the context. I am not only slow but short as well
