i can. if you mount your own bindings, and take them to the shop and they dont pass function testing, we WILL NOT touch your bindings. its too ridiculously huge of a liability. just go to a shop and have someone indemnified do it, its too crucial to ur knees

Really. But have you ever seen a pair of skis before? Ever even held any in your hands? Cause that is pathetic

i remounted my urbs with a power drill, tape measure, masking tape, and a #3 posi drive.
took me about 10 minutes and they've held up for the entire year so far and i have abused them.
its really not that hard if you know what youre doing.

Bahahahaha! Perfect.
To the creator:
I'm not ripping on you, and most of these people shouldn't be either because:
1) there was a time when they didn't have a clue about mounting bindings.
and
2) most of them still can't do it themselves.
The fact of the matter is that you have to have specific tools and such to properly mount bindings...most of the time they include a drill or drill press, special counter-sinking metric bits for the proper diameter and depth, a mounting jig specific to that model binding, a tap to cut the holes for the screw, etc.
It's a job that requires training and practice to get right, and that's why the general public leave it to the shop tech...and you'll hear stories of techs messing up mounting jobs, so even if you know what you're doing mistakes can be made.
It's not something you should attempt without the proper tools and training, just save up 30 bucks and take them to the shop, it's a lot easier and you don't take the chance of ruining your new skis.

Fuck bindings. Fuck Boots too for that matter. Here's what you do:
1. Get some old shoes (preferably some comfy cross trainers)
2. Get a Ski
3. Get some masking tape and find the center of each ski.
4. Tape the shoe to the ski. Do this by creating some tape loops on the bottom of the sole, then by taping the toe and heal to the bottom.
5. Make sure it is tight.
6. Do the same to the other ski
7. Feel free to draw pictures on said tape to dope out your setup.
This is what I've been doing for years. For one, it gives you a lot more mobility in your ankles than the regular ski boot. On top of this its cheap, looks rad, and the ladies love it.
