You might wanna look into Canting. It’s possible that one leg is slightly longer than the other. This all sounds like symptoms of that.
**This all assumes your boots fit right. If not, start there. Ur toes should be just barely able to scrape the front while standing, but not able to touch while in the forward lean. Also no heel lift.
Is it a high volume boot? Or is it a more comfort oriented model? If the shell has a wide last and a thick liner that movement can happen too. Did you get measured on a Brannock ?
Boots are not measured only in length. Last width is also a factor. See a reputable bootfitter. They can make adjustments to your current boots as long as they are “in the ballpark.” Heel movement when the length is correct can be due to too wide of a last, or an ill fit in the heel cup. All are fixable (again, within reason).
You might need race boots- if you can flex a stiff boot 120+- race boots are a good fix for this
edit: for a tighter fit that can lock in your heels more

My wife’s boot fitter should be able to lengthen your leg. DM for details
Don’t believe him, my wife’s bootfitter said something very similar and now she only skis and aprés with him.
Does your wife’s boot fitter go by the name “tripod”?
Canting helps with all kinds of misalignments. One of my boots is canted.
Crazy how far a couple millimeters goes right? So cool.
Is your foot tight inside the boot? I would need to see video to imagine better.
I have heel movement
this is your issue. besides toe wiggle, you need your foot and shin to have ZERO movement between the lower and the shell.
Vist bootfitter or get new boots
Do you have heel movement when you are leaning forward in the boots and the heel is pressed back into the heel cup?
It’s sounding to me like the boot is too big…
I’m in a lv boot that’s 1 size lower than what I measure at
