I seen the photo of your creation.....that is perfect.......
Just the two pieces of canting platic to the boot board then you will be fine.
One suggestion is that the toe piece(for the front part), make it longer to extend the canting support towards the mid part of the foot.......If you want to be better,make a piece that is the whole lenght of the boot boeard.
The photos show that you are neutral with the canting in. Your center of your knee fall inlines with the second met-head(the second toe joint) and that is perfect....
I do not think you need to modify the sole of the boot....
Good job,......Well done

Bother Lelo,
Can you tell me what are you try to achieve or improve in your skiing?
Please write in simple sentences......my Chinese is NOT,,,,that good...
May be I can offer you some simple ideas to change your skiing.
When I was an instructor, many years ago, I learn lots of little ideas to help skiers, Sometimes these little ideas will help a lots.
Cheers,
SS

Here is a very good example that shaving or canting the boot sole is NOT THE ONLY solution.
As I have said many time before, Alignment of the foot with FootBeds and internal FB posting is very effective. The end result is just as good, for the most of us. Racers are a totally different breed of skiers..........And I don't think we are all at that level yet; I am speaking for my self, off course. There are some better skier out there in this forum that may benifit from the sole canting.
Happy Carving......

我想照影片裏頭這樣滑,但我發覺影片裏,用窄站姿加雙腿平行來 edge 的方式,
我做不到 ...
我加一段英文好了,希望沒搞錯 ...
I would like ski like the movie, but I found the edge method teached in the movie with narrow stance and parallel shin,I can't do as it.
I saw the photos of what you are trying to do; a self DIY footbed.......That is very creative and highly engineered. You are ONE SMART person. You should be an engineer, if not that you are one already.
If I ever decided to take on an apprentice, you would be my first CHOICE.....GOOD SHOW.
Now for your skiing.
First, my "worthless" opinion on the short video. That skier's stance is too NARROW.
For you, my suggestion is to ski in a wider stance.
Then, be good at carving big wide turns. Be comfortable at all speed and snow condition. Learn to use the different part of the ski...tip, the waist and the tail. Learn to shift the weight forward then center and the heel. You need to FEEL the preasure and the reaction form the ski. Learn to put presure to all parts of your ski boot.
The next step is to gradually decrease the radius of your turns.
If you can NOT carve big turns.....you are NOT going to do tight turns; especailly in mogals
I hope this will give you some ideas of how to use th eedges and controll the turns.
