Binding Canting and Sole Planing in XC?

Hi,

Has anyone here ever adjusted their skis by canting the bindings, or
sole planing?

I see lots of information on it, but only for downhill. XC
skis,bindings dont seem to lend themselves to these techniques as much.

Can anyone recommend a boot fitter that does these for XC boots?

Thanks

There was a company making canting plates for nordic skis back in the
last 1980's. They went on the skis between the ski top and the binding
(binding by whichever manufacturer). After a couple of seasons they were
no more because there just wasn't the demand. Plus many people concluded
that if they needed that much canting they should just get orthotics.

Salomon was making canting weges few years ago.
They are about 3 degrees and I am currently using it on one ski(left).
I never liked original Salomon design and end up
making wedge myself from light plastic gluing it to piece of wood and
shaving it w/block plane.
