 Poster: A snowHead
|
Breaks for my bindings come in 110mm or 130mm, I want to put them on 112mm wide skis. Do I bend the 110mm a bit or do I go for the wider? Can breaks be too wide?
Cheers for the info
James

Do you mean brakes?

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

Personally for a 2mm difference, I'd bend 110mm brakes to fit a 112mm ski.

That was my thought but wanted to get other opinions.
Yep I did mean brakes, the post was written during break time at school. Not much of an excuse but all I have

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

yes, you might not even have to bend the 110s

Definitely go with the 110mm brake.
In the past I've fitted brakes a few mm narrower than the official waist measurement of the skis and didn't have to bend them at all. The wider brakes run the risk of catching the snow when you're carving hard.

I find 4 days is about right. 5 a luxury, 3 a bit too short.
