106. How Ski Boot Alignment Impacts Performance and Knee Health Part 1 (feat. Brian Potempa from The Ski Shoe)

On this episode of the Legaski Podcast, I sit down with Brian, a master bootfitter out of Park City, to talk about ski boot alignment—and why it can completely change your skiing.


We dig into:

✅ Why most skiers end up in boots that are too big

✅ The difference between cuff adjustment and true canting ✅ How alignment affects balance, efficiency, and knee health

✅ Why your first turns should feel good if the boot is fit right ✅ The simple “at-home” test to check if your boots are the right size

✅ How alignment can be the missing link between frustration and breakthrough turns


If you’ve ever struggled with turning one way easier than the other—or felt like your knees take the brunt of every run—this episode is packed with clarity and practical takeaways.

If you’re in Park City and want to help with your boots, reach out to Brian
