Hi Phil--thanks for the info. I guess I should really get of my read end and go out in the rain to the garage and get down my skis with Shifts and measure them
When that happens, I'll post the numbers here.
Regarding toe height, I guess I was thinking that, because you have to adjust the height under the foot, the height of the toe would be changing but...thinking about if further, you're right, if the reference is the top of the toepiece, then things like boot sole thickness, rocker, and so forth won't matter.
That said, I immagine boots might vary signiifcantly in how high high the toe lug/binding interface is from the footbed? It seems hard or impossible to actually get a precise delta measurement, if you were really shoting for how your foot is sitting in a specific boot/footbed/binding setup...
Frusterating for the OCD folks like me
