Hello everyone.
First, sorry for my (probably) not so good English.
Second, I'm new here and I'm asking for a precise knowledge of the existing "racing" ski shoes , so if it's not the right place to ask for it just tell me to go to hell.
I currently have a pair of dying head 140rs (currently unusable until I find a front left buckle) that fitted me pretty well (compared to the Lange rs120 and the rs130waytoowide) in 25.5. I put 2 more rivets to try the 150 flex and the result was pleasant, it seemed more "solid", I could push fast and hard without having the same "hehe calm down" effect. It also felt more stable and less dangerous on hazardously prepared terrains. So I would like to get something at least as stiff for my next shoes.
Important: I also set everything i could to push my knees outward (canting, tuning spoiler inwards and I even force the "tongue" in front of the tibias inwards to make more volume outwards for my legs). All this makes my knees go only slightly outwards (or just not inwards). My weird technique requires a weird tune and I would like my next shoes to have this kind of tuning possibilities.
My feet are not very long (~245mm) but have a "squared" shape on the front and are pretty voluminous (wide and high).
The scan from the fischer app seems correct.
I had to take the 25.5 because the width and height are more of a ~27 (I have to take EU size 42 for walking shoes).
Despite the volume of my feet, my actual ski shoes are too voluminous. I have to tie them 3/3 on the front, then 3/5, 4/7 and 2/7 (my legs are not very thin).
I thought I had to take the 24.5 of the same model, but maybe the widest part of the shoes would be behind the widest part of the feet (given their shape). So why not the WCR 2 or 3 ? Or maybe another brand that would fit better with my feet's shape (I read the atomic would be between the 140rs and the wcr in terms of width) ?
If you have any advice or idea, I'd be very happy.
(Or do you know a decent boot fitter in Switzerland ?)
Thanks a lot to everyone who took the time to read this.
