 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
Hubby bought some new skis from Sport Conrad in January. Skied on them for 7 days and in our return this week he noticed one side of toepiece had sheared off. No falls other than a really innocuous one which was probably as a result of the breakage. They've sent a replacement but obviously he's had to take them to a local ski shop to fit the new one. Anything he needs to be wary of? He's left them but feels a bit uncomfortable with the whole thing. Should be just a direct replacement but he's a bit concerned he's been taken for a ride. Not quite sure why as I wasnt there so don't know who he spoke to at Elixir.

@Hells Bells, what bindings? Calling @Spyderjon ...
I had one of a pair of Marker Squire 11s break (the pillar connecting the heel piece to the ski) but replaced and no issues.

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

I'm fairly sure the shop he's gone to will know what they are doing. I am more peed off with having to pay to get the replacement fitted. I would be sending invoice to Sport Conrad/Salomon.

@Hells Bells, If they're being totally replaced, I think I'd be happy, I presume they're a pretty mass market device??

You'll need to Register first of course.

@Hells Bells, Just send Conrads the receipt for the fitting. I doubt you'll have any issues getting a refund.

Unscrew, dollop some woodglue in there, screw replacement in. Am I missing something?
Only a problem if some reason the new toepiece won't bite in existing holes. Send Conrad the receipt for remount though.

@under a new name, just the broken toepiece is being replaced but yes nothing special about them. He's just narked about not being able to ski on them for most of our holiday and having to use his old Cham.97s.

@Dave of the Marmottes, Nah, the holes will probably need dressing down to get rid of the volcanoes and imperative that it's waterproof glue to stop moisture getting in........
