Just picked up a new pair of surface green lifes that are 100mm at the waist. Also grab a pair of used Rossi axial2's from a NS'er and the brakes are 120mm. Actually physically having the skis now the amount of space between the edge and the brakes is pretty apparent. Should i buy a new pair of brakes and replace the 120's? I think the next smallest size that Rossi has are 100mm so my question is will these actually fit a 100mm waist ski? Thanks +K for help
 
Yes, unless you like stepping on your brakes when you ski. Its no fun to land and snag your pant leg on your opposite bindings brake arm.
 
Ok, so will the 100mm brakes fit these skis? Just want to make sure they wont be too narrow since the waist is 100mm
 
You'll be fine. Brakes work within a +/- 5cm range pretty well, its around 10 off that they get weird.
