Holes in my ski

so i kinda screwed up a pair of cheap skis the other day. the toepiece pulled out during a fall, and i just screwed it back on so i could ski down (3 miles is a shitty walk). but little did i know, i screwed 2 of the screws straight through the base... so i'm wondering if its worth it to get some epoxy, shorter screws, and p-tex the hell out of the base. these skis need to last me another 3 weeks until my new ones come in, thats all.
 
Yeah dude, fuckin' go for it, you already put 2 screws through the base, not a whole lot of damage you could cause by P-Texing and whatnot.
 
kid at my mountain when salomon gave him a sponsorship, they sent him 720's with a hole drilled through them for his first pair of skis from them.
 
I don't get it, did you try to screw the toepiece back in and forget to put a lifter plate on that was on there before?
 
i think the first time i mounted them i didn't screw those two screws in all the way or something... the whole deal is pretty ghetto.
 
i was mounting my own bindings on urbans without the lifters and i almost screwed through the bottom, they were like poking out and making a bulge on the bottom and i was like ooo shit. But its all good now.
 
so i went to town with a tube of 2-ton epoxy and a stick of ptex. skied a day on them, just training for work but so far so good.
