has anyone mounted regular alpine bindings on the hippy stinx or the piste-pipe? does anyone know if they are the same skis as the pistol and enemy respectively? Nice

I have no idea but I would naturally think that a tele board will be stiffer and more rigid than the pistol noodles are for sure. This could make landings = smashings.

i doubt you would get same warranty if you mounted regular bindings

k2's Tele versions of there alpine line-up are actually softer. They are also pre drilled for tele binders but I don't think that would really stop you if you wanted to mount them alpine. they are softer though, in the tail i think.

hey jck8487 pistol noodles? are you saying that the pistols aren't stiff? have you ridden or flexed them? they are damn solid

Work is like anti-hippie spray; they stay the fuck away from it

 
^ no I didn't know that the tele's were actually softer. I meant fuj noodles I guess I was thinking butters not noodles haha and how rigid teles might be which I just learned ^^ that they are the opposite.

Duffman can't breathe .. oh no
 
No huckster, Seth Pistols are not stiff. Solid, sure, but not stiff. Stiff = Volkl Explsoiv's or Dynastar Legend Pros. Soft = K2 Seth Pistols. But then again, if you are a skinny little shit, I'm sure the SP's are plenty 'stiff'.

 
Word on the street from a K2 national nordic team member is that all of them are just same ski, different topsheet.

its funny you should say that, becuase i was in boulder ski deals the other day and asked the guy if you could do this, he said that they are different structurally and he would not do it. there are already a bunch of holes drilled in it for the tele bindings....i dont know if this is standard for tele skis as i dont konw much about the equipment

 
dude why would you mount a tele ski regular? unless there is something special that you like about them it just seems a little pointless.

 
^Nope K2 is the only one doing the insert thing. As far as the skis I skied with Ben Dolenc who rides for K2 and helped design the graffics and he was tearing up the park at Squaw on them. Tele skis usually are softer than their alpine version but in ths case I doubt they are with the Pistols being sooo soft.

I've seen plenty of the hippy stinx mounted for alpine. In fact all the hippy stinx I've seen were mounted for alpine. I'm guessing there's no problem.

 
Salomonshake ski for one the hippy stinx are 150 dollars cheaper than the Pistols. That's a pretty good insentive. And personally I think they have way cooler graffics and the pistols. But that's just me I like black skis.

You can mount them with alpine bindings and it doesn't void the warranty. You just have to mount 10mm in front of or behind the inserts.
