So i just picked up a pair of revision skis and i plan on mounting them because i work at my local ski shop. However i dont know what bit to use and was curious if any of you guys would happen to know?
 
It doesnt have to do with the bindings, it usually says directly on the ski utself but unfortunantly these ones dont say. It has to do with what the skis are made of not the binding type.
 
glad i don't take my skis to your shop. if you have to ask this question on NS, you probably shouldn't be getting paid to drill skis.

Yeah I wouldn't fuck around with mounting your own skis if you don't know the bit to use. Get someone who knows how to do it to show you, and then you'll be fine. Its super easy to do, but if you make one mistake you can totally fuck the skis up and make them unusable.

Almost every learning ski tech will inevitably pick the wrong bit and drill right through the skis at some point.
 
None of you seem to realize that you can work at a shop without being a tech. That being said, OP should just take them to a tech in his shop.

I did this once when I didn't see the riser plates in the box and used the extra long screws. Bad day.
 
If you work at a shop, then:

A: Why the fuck did you buy Revision skis? You can't get shop price on a name ski?

B: why the fuck are you asking NS how to mount ski's....YOU WORK AT A SHOP!
 
I would definitely default to what the manufacturer says, but the rule of thumb is to use a 3.5mm x 9 and if you encounter a layer of metal bump it up to 4.1
