Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
I have a new set of Salomon Scrambler 5, but they came without bindings.
From what I can make out the Scrambler 5 would normally come with bindings in the form of the Salomon C610 as they already have the "rails" installed for both toe & heel binding.
Can anyone give me any pointers?
Are my assumptions correct?
Anyone know where I can get them - local ski shop either didn't know or wern't interested.
Many thanks

runner, The scrambler 5 does not appear to have rails on any photo I can see of them and the c610 is not a rail binding.
There is a variant of the c610 called c610 CP which includes a plate underneath the binding, but this is not an integral part of the ski in the way that rails are.
Maybe these ski's have previously been fited with 610 CP's or some similar binding. If it's not a proper integrated rail then you could just remove it and fit any binding.
If it says "Carving Technology - salomon" then it's probably the CP (carving plate) from the c610 CP.

Those look like the rental mounting rack (Synchro Centre ?). Did you buy these skis secondhand ? To install new bindings, you'll either need to track down some compatible (Salomon rental) bindings, or remove the rack, fill the holes and have new bindings installed.

They are brand new, barcode still on the underside. Normally they come with the bindings to fit this platform... but I got them cheap off ebay

My local dryslope uses the same Salomon Scrambler skis. The plates deffinately look like rental plates to me. You could perhaps call them and see if they have any bindings going spare.

Solved.
Bought a bargain set of skis off flea bay that have the same binding mounting system.
Next question is do the skis need preparing before first use, I've looked on jon ski tuning web & he lists a service for new skis
