Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Atomic Hawks heel and toe plates
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

First time posting on this forum. Have dug out ski boots to give another antibacterial spray and have noticed that the underside toe sections are worn down on to the edge of the screw in one place.

They are Atomic Hawx from about 2011, possibly stupid question but do I order something like these:

and unscrew old plates and screw in new

Is there anything else I need to be aware of and is £35 about right?

Puzzled

Thanks

I'm not expert but that looks like the correct ones to me.
They are for the earlier Hawx and Live Fit so should do the job!

Personally I just use it as an excuse to buy new boots wink

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

@flangesax, boots are the one thing I don’t buy each season as they are just too comfortable!

@Snowsartre, what model and size are yours? I've just taken delivery of some for my Hawx 80s 2012/13 model. I emailed them to confirm before ordering and got a very prompt response. snowHead

Yes... and they should come with new screws. Your main challenge might be to get old screws out, if the plates have worn down to the point where the screw heads are burred.

Cost is similar to what I have paid in Australia for a full set, ie front and back.

@Snowsartre, suggest you email them on info@skiequipmentuk.co.uk with that info to be sure to order the right ones.
Price is same I paid. Well worth it to make comfy boots safe in the bindings again IMO.
I haven't fitted my new ones yet. I'm half expecting to have to very carefully drill out the old screws, if they won't come out with screwdriver. Mine don't look too bad though. snowHead

+1 for skiequipment, used them last year for new plates. Chap knew what I needed and arrived a couple of days later. Excellent. Give them a call if you have any questions they were more than helpful and knowledgeable on various brands and models.
