My Crichton's :/

So a week or so ago i got a pair of 05-06 crichton pros for $200, i was so stoked. i was going to use them in whistler when i go on saturday, so i got them mounted right away. i asked for 2cm back from dead center, and i came back today and it was 2cm back from the factory mounting spot. pissed, i had them re-mount them, and the second time they put them 2cm forward of center. so instead off drilling them a 3rd time, which would weaken the ski too much, i just gave up the ski. i was so fucking pissed when i realized i had to do that. The good news; im now getting a pair of 06-07 crichtons for no further charge, meaning just the original $200. but i dont get them till august, so i dont have a backup pair for whistler, since my back-ups broke on water ramps, which sucks.

i cant fucking beleive they fucked up the mounting 2x in a row, but atleast im getting a new 06-07 pair for really cheap.
 
i told the guy who i bought them from exactly what, and he even wrote down "2cm back from true center", and he understood what i meant, but couldnt mount them himself. the technician didnt understand and fucked it up twice, and he wasnt there for me to talk to either time i went there.
 
most people dont routinely break pairs of skis, so if that does happen its usually rare and they buy new skis.
 
ugh, not really, i break skis all the time, specially if your gonna be skiing whistler glaciers, which has some pretty big terrain.

and on that note, that tech should def be written up or fired, thats rediculous. how does he get 2 forward off that?! but yes, if you take your skis to a shop, fing the line you want them on, take one ski and mark it with a fine point sharpie. if they are really incompetitnt, write "mount here" on um!
 
thats what it looks like in the ns gear preview, but i dont know. they dont usully do that, but hey, its still a sick graphic, so i dont mind
