Pitch

Pitch, or heel pitch as it may also be called refers to the alignment of the body's weight over the heel of the shoe. Proper pitch is achieved when the "invisible line" that extends from the center contact point of the heel up through the body is vertically straight. Misalignment of pitch can lead to physical maladies from minimal discomfort to back and hip alignment issues.
