Right. The goal is to get the ski to be perfectly flat as you stand naturally. I had soles planed on one of my pairs of boots, but we were able to correct things with the cuff adjustment on my current pair. I'm usually only off a degree or two. I noticed more of a difference on skis than I had expected to.
