<p>A ski boot generally comprising an outer boot having an upper shell and a sole attached to the bottom of the upper shell. When the ski boot is in place, the outer boot is fixed to a ski. A laterally tiltable insert rests upon the portion of the sole inside the upper shell, and a foot of a skier rests upon the insert. Inversion or eversion of the skier's foot alone causes the insert to tilt thereby creating a weight shift which is transferred to the edge of the ski causing it to turn. Skiing maneuvers are, therefore, accomplished without twisting the torso or laterally moving the knees.</p> |
