Poster: A snowHead

Ok daft question or maybe not......
Providing it's the same manufacturer/same style of binding how interchangeable are bindings? Seen a pair of skis I like that are being sold 2nd hand without bindings, we're the same boot size, he had some markers on 110mm brake, I have some spare Markers-not the same model also 110mm break. They're at the other end of the country so can't do the sensible thing and check for myself. Anyone any experience of this? Do drill patterns tend to be the same?

If the bindings are mounted flat on the ski, and not via some form of plate, them they are generally interchangeable. Drill patterns are likely not the same, but filling the existing holes and re-drilling is standard practice.
If the bindings go via on a plate, then they are likely to not be interchangeable - even within the same manufacturer.
If you post the models of bindings involved, maybe someone could give you a more definitive answer.

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

Grizwald, if you tell me the model of both pairs of Markers I'll tell you if they have the same mounting pattern.

Sorry but they have totally different mounting locations at the but if you have the same boot length as the original mount on the skis then you can just about mount your existing bindings without any conflicts & get the required separation. The two rearmost holes in the toe are shared between both models but there's plenty of separation for the other two.
