Are look Px 12 Ti lifters the wrong choice?

[Tyranous]

just got bindings on ebay. I saw them on another sight for a lot more so i bid without finding out nething about em. I read the little booklet that they came with and it says that they are alpine bindings. Will they be ok mounted on park skis for mainly groomed snow?

 

[ESfreeridepa]

yeah they are fine. you might want to drop the lifters though.

 

[J.D.]

What the hell did you think they were, tele bindings? Of course they're alpine bindings.

 

[titsLOL]

if you want them to perform better in the park ditch the lifters.

 

[peterriley2]

youll see probably most people on here use them, so yeah, theyre good bindings..

 

[Tyranous]

When u say "ditch the lifters" i assume u mean the thin little plastic base thingys. Will the bindings still mount correctly with the lifters removed?

 

[bigkicker]

yeah just get shorter screw

 

[J.D.]

You have to file down the screws or get shroter ones, which some shops charge you for. I was going to mount mine without lifters but decided it was too much of a hassle to deal with the screws. It honestly doesn't make very much difference whether they're on or not. It's not like they're race risers or anything.

 

[titsLOL]

well the risers affect the flex of the ski to, i'm not a big fan of 'em. call your shop and tell 'em you want them to take the lifters off and ask if they have the right screws, hopefully they'll either hook up for free or tell you what kind to get at a hardware store where it'd be super cheap.

Thanks i didn't know if the lifters being on would make a big dif or not. So would most shops have diff screws?

 

[Tyranous]

nvm that last reply

 

[fouldsys]

dont get those. buy my px12 with lifters.(no ti)

 

[Ryno]

anyone know the specs on the short screws?

just so i know how far to file down the longer ones.

 

[NoTeefa]

the screws should penetrate the ski by 8mm

thanks
