How do you know how tight your boots should be?

We all know that the real reason we all ski is for the exquisite delight of removing the boots at the end of the day.

"Better than sex" as a former racer friend described this.

Boot fit? Think driving glove, not baseball mitt. And absolutely get yer long johns outta the boots. Probably no need to cut your long johns unless you have ridiculously large calves.
If you're having fit issues, a trip back to Start Haus should be at the top of your list. @otto will be a much better resource than any online peanut gallery.

There's a better way to take off my boots?

knocking boots can happen before or after they are removed

Racers do it with their boots on?

Heel lift and jammed toes shout limited ankle dorsiflexion, I’d recommend having that checked.
