Are you feeling pain or clicking in your ankle when walking in your daily shoes?
Discomfort in ankle is likely caused by hitting or rubbing on the shell. Extra work in balancing will cause muscle tiredness or soreness in calf and maybe quads. Mostly former unless your backseat.
I actually feel pretty good when I walk in daily shoes, not much pain there. I feel it clicking when I do some stretches, really closing the angle of shin to ankle, like bending down to tie shoes. Sometimes a sharp pain (image attached marked with a red box). The sharp pain happens every once in a while and cannot pin point when it happens.
Technique aside and going back to my boots, I forgot to mention that my boots were fitted towards more of a comfort fit NOT a performance fit. After skiing in them for 10 days they do feel less snug combined with wearing thinner socks as of late. Perhaps this is what is the root cause to pain in my ankle.
Knees to skis, ten dollars please!
In inline speed skating it goes, Nose Knees to Toes = the proper skate position.‘Knees to skis’ is what Eileen Schriffin told little Mika.
My Raptor 140 turn to mush during warmer weather. I actually end up putting the extra bolts in the spine to bump them to 150. When it's cold 130 is fine. PU shells, at least the ones I've used, seem to be very temperature sensitive. The newer materials don't seem to have such a problem.One of the worst experiences of my life was a weekend of skiing in 55* weather. I didn't get the support from my boots that I usually get in cold weather and I ended up with horrible ankle pain.
HAHA! Digging up the oldies! That's good. People are searching and going deep.Just FYI, It's been almost a year since the OP last posted on the site... I wonder if he'll respond?
The thing that doesn’t make sense to me is why would anyone want flex in a ski boot anyways? except for moments when I am out of my skis and headed to the bar. Isn’t that what walk mode is for...
If we are taught to carve, by angulating our knees, and to control fore and aft by shifting our weight back and forth along the forward axis, again using our knees, then why do we need to use our ankles? Our knees do all of the work correct? Doesn’t this negate the need for boot flex, specifically the ankle area.

I knew it! Fat takes a long time to go away. I'm proof of that!
