You bend the ski by aligning the CoM over the ski and edging it. No need to lever the boot. Look at the data above -- pressure relatively constant under the heel, greater variability in pressure under the forefoot ascribed to pronation of the foot after pressure (foot to foot) change. Nadine Gruenenfelder (Swiss Demo team, former WC GS specialist) talks about pressure moving from a bias toward the ball of the foot in initiation toward the heel in the finish of the turn. But that's for expert level skiing.
The OP has stated his skill level elsewhere as an intermediate skier. While expert skiing may involve some small movement fore and aft on the ski, that's a skill that is well beyond an intermediate (and many expert) skiers. First an intermediate skier has to find center.
As to the photo you posted, it is pretty difficult to identify leverage from a single photo. When I look at videos of his skiing, I do not see leverage.
