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 :-)

Is this possible?

As long as the binding aren't on a rail system you should be ok. The rule is when you're drilling you need 10mm away from the old screw holes. You need to look at the screw hole patterns against the current screw holes.
You may need to have the binding moved slightly off the recommended sole centre line to accommodate this.
Any decent ski shop will be able to do it for you or advise against it.

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

thanks for the reply. I do not intend to to it by my selft. I have no idea how. If it was as snowboard ok...but mit ski ....

However Head write back that "it depends on whether the correct plate (Power Rail) is mounted on the Atomic model. The Protector binding needs this plate to be mounted.
We would ask you to clarify this with a specialist retailer and have the binding fitted and adjusted there as well"

*Free translation from Germans

I asked a couple of retailer...well... the answer "The Atomic bindings for the Cloud 7 are produced by Salomon, the Protector by Tyrolia. As these are two different manufacturers, the rail system is not optimally compatible. Of course, you may still be able to slide the Tyrolia binding onto the rail of the Atomic ski, but a perfect fit is not guaranteed."

Maybe it is possible, maybe not.... however 300 Euro for "maybe" is a big deal....

And what's your reason for wanting to do the swap? Are the old ones actually broken, and if so, and not repairable, why not just replace with the same type?

The protector unfortunately will not fit on the atomic rail system. Potentially you could remove the rail and get the protector fitted but as others have said it's probably easier to buy new skis and for the protector to them !

nope...i think also that it is not possible...
ok, maybe someone can do it, but it doesnt worth it.
The problem is that my wife bought the ski last year, and she dont want new ones....

@turms2, Think of something different to buy as a present.

I'm not sure the skiing world is convinced by their claims of a 50% reduction in knee injuries anyway, TBH.
