Best Prefabricated Ski Orthotic

Podiatrist Recommended OTC Ski Footbed

Prefabricatated orthotics do not usually provide as much control or comfort as a custom ski orthotic. But if you are outside the Seattle area and cannot visit our clinic for evaluation for custom ski orthotics, we would like to give you our recommendation for the best OTC ski and snowboard orthotic.

We have found the PowerStep Medical Grade Orthotic the most supportive ski boot insole and the best choice for many skiers and snowboarders. This Powerstep footbed has all of the features we look for in a ski orthotic, including:

• Superior arch support to improve foot contact with the boot and improve control over the ski
• Heel cup to stabilize your heel. This helps prevent hot spots that occur due to excessive pronation
• Flat bottom to prevent rocking in the boot
• Firm forefoot to make it easy to slide in and out of ski boots

Purchase PowerStep Medical Grade Orthotic - $65

We have recommended this ski footbed to many patients with very good success. These are the next best thing to a custom ski orthotic.

A somewhat less controlling and less expensive choice for ski and snowboard boots is the PowerStep Full Length Insole. It is a little more flexible and thus less stable than our preferred Medical Grade Orthotic. It is, however, the best ski orthotic choice in the $30 range.

Purchase PowerStep Full Length Insoles - $32.95
