Poster: A snowHead
|
I'm mounting a set of Freedom NTN Large bindings and have downloaded the paper jig from Rottefella.
Boot sole length is 306mm, so as expected the heel point is between the 300 and 310mm screw markings on the paper jig. The front mounting and support plate positions are fine.
I guess I should interpolate the 300 and 310mm positions and mount the heel block at the 306mm point? I am pretty sure that a jig would do this once set to the BSL.
Can anyone confirm?
Thanks.

I'd just do what I've always done --- mount the toe piece, insert the boot and draw around the heel !

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

OK - and where do you mount the heel block in relation to the drawn heel line?? I guess that when the heel lifters are raised, the end is in the centre of the heel??

@colinstone, I have the back of the heel at the back of the heel block (more or less) -- I don't think you need to be too exact --- you can of course check by raising the heel block and aligning with the boot heel before drilling

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@ski, +1 Always ignore the template for the rear mount.

Anyone have any experience of mounting NTN Freerides over Dynafit Radical tech bindings with or without QuiverKillers? Any clashes, only really worried about the front?

On both Freedom and Freeride the front 2 holes are too close to the 2 front holes of the dynafit (on Freedom I think that there is about a 9mm separation IIRC. Freeride is similar.)

@BenA, thanks. Techs are mounted 20mm back so I could go for a central mount on Freerides without conflict?

You can definitely work something out (particularly given that you can shift NTN +/- 14mm on the plate.)
Is your freeride the newer mount pattern (38mm wide) same as the Freedom or the older (30mm wide) pattern with the metal plates?
Assuming the older one then your NTN holes should be the same width as the dynafit (30mm). If you move your NTN forward so that the middle set of holes lines up with the rear dynafit toepiece holes so that you resuse them then you should find that the front and rear holes are clear and you will be about 17 mm forward of the dynafit mount. As your dynafit is -20mm that should put your NTN just behind centre.
If you prefer your rearward mount then you can use the rear setting on the NTN which will put you back 14mm so you will be close to the dynafit position.
Edited for correctness!
