    how do you..

    actually moving the bindings forward on any ski will affect the way it handles. whether or not you have old straights. nearly all skis since the early 80's have more material underfoot, where the binding is to be mounted. so moving the binding forward changes the balance of the flex of the ski...

    how do you..

    actually boiling them is probably the best way to do it. you can heat them up with a torch or an iron but you almost always end up burning the base (course you are bending the skis, so it's not like you are gonna be that worried bout it). but give em a good long boil, then stick em in a vice and...

    maker bindings

    they are an incredible binding, real light and real strong. I still have my mrr's from like 8 years ago and they work great. however, they are a racing binding and i don't know if i would recommend them so much for the park or such. 'Because it's there...' -Hillary

    marker titanium 1300 comp

    well the toe releases upward as well as side to side on marker bindings, unlike most of salomon and other companies. generally, it's not great to use a binding that releases up in the toe cause of when you might come down hard on the tail. but you can always just crank them down... 'Because...

    A good edge sharpener

    yeah swix is weird... I would get a diamond whetstone (as mentioned by CTripper). usually you can get these in a set with the apparatus and several different platforms that vary the degree. I would also recommend that you have a gummi stone on hand to remove burrs and detune if you are catching...

    no more ski companies.

    ^moron. of course salomon cares about progressing skiing. let's take a look at the 1080, pocket rocket and 1080 boot. those three products alone have probably received more development and research time than any other newschool product from any company, including armada, 4frnt and others...

    Need Help with bindings quick!!!

    you aren't making too much sense. no alpine and tele patterns aren't the same. even almost every alpine binders have different patterns, even within the same brand. but, unless you are getting the skis already mounted you can drill any pattern you want into them. in fact you can just have the...
