Ski Accessories: HEAD Heel/Toe Lifter R.WCR 5 mm
For anyone in alpine ski racing or ambitious training who wants to optimize every detail of their equipment, high-quality ski accessories are essential. The HEAD Heel/Toe Lifter R.WCR 5 mm was specially developed to professionally adjust the sole height of the ski boot and create the perfect basis for race setups. Especially in race training or for FIS-compliant modifications, a simple standard solution is often not enough. This lifter convinces with its high precision fit, enormous stability, and the uncompromising quality for which HEAD has been known in racing for years.
Ski accessories for precise race setups
Even small changes to the stand height can significantly influence the handling characteristics of a ski boot. The HEAD Heel/Toe Lifter R.WCR 5 mm ensures an exact height increase in the sole area and forms the basis for a professional race boot modification.
Especially in racing, every millimeter counts. A properly constructed sole height improves balance, supports more precise power transmission, and creates optimal conditions for subsequent sole planing or adaptation to applicable regulations.

Why the HEAD Heel/Toe Lifter excels in racing
In the World Cup and among performance-oriented racers, no ski boot is used "off the shelf". The sole geometry is individually adjusted to optimize feel and power transmission. This is exactly where the HEAD Heel/Toe Lifter shows its strength.
The most important advantages on the piste:
- Precise sole construction for professional race modifications
- High dimensional stability, even under heavy load
- Direct power transmission due to precise fit
- Optimal basis for later further work in the ski service workshop
- Perfectly matched to HEAD R.WCR race boots
In daily race service, the difference to inexpensive universal plates quickly becomes apparent. Cheaper solutions often have manufacturing tolerances or material fluctuations. This makes exact sole grinding difficult and can negatively affect durability.
The original HEAD lifter, on the other hand, provides a clean starting point for precise work and ensures that the ski boot retains its stability even after modification.
Particularly noticeable are:
- more precise balance on the ski
- more consistent power transmission
- clean sole geometry
- more safety at high speeds
- professional race setup
Our advice from racing
From our experience in race service, we recommend the HEAD Heel/Toe Lifter especially to skiers who want to individually customize their ski boot or build it FIS-compliant.
This ski accessory is particularly useful for:
- Racers in junior, youth and adult categories
- FIS athletes
- Coaches
- Ski service workshops
- Ambitious skiers with individually tuned equipment
Those who only occasionally ski will hardly exploit the difference. In race training, however, even the smallest details often decide precision and feel. This is precisely why many racers consistently rely on original HEAD parts.
Use & Care Instructions
The HEAD Heel/Toe Lifter R.WCR 5 mm is intended for professional installation on compatible HEAD Race ski boots. For a permanently precise sole geometry, we recommend installation and subsequent processing by an experienced ski service. After installation, sole dimensions and binding compatibility should be checked and, if necessary, adjusted according to applicable standards or race specifications.
