 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
courtesy of Mr Cowie (s) k2 seth vicious, I now have my complete tele set up. Does anyone have any recommendations for the mounting point of my ntn bindings ?

limegreen1, The install leaflet with your bindings is clear and you should also have a paper template in there with it.

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

limegreen1, as per alpine - boot centre to ski centre marker - unless people have specific recommendations for your ski. The bindings allow you to tweak plus and minus after mounting.
Just as a warning, you need to be pretty precise with your drilling for the NTN mounting plates - otherwise you'll have problems getting the bindings on/off the mounting plates. It's not hard, but do take your time.

Templates are no longer supplied with the bindings.

FlyingStantoni, their mounting instructions say you can download the templates off their website but I've never been able to find them. Luckily I've got jigs for the Freedom & Freeride 
Most of my tele customers go with +1cm or on the line.

spyderjon, Yeah, I was just doing the fantasy shopping bit and seen a lot of changes and new kit coming out that's NTN compatible. I'm talking with TTS on a possible mod to allow either locked down or tele with just a QD cable post and 3G binding. You may have an overseas visitor yet this season to see this new shop if yours  Congratulations it's VERY impressive and I'm glad to have contributed a wee bit toward it.

spyderjon, I hadn't realised that they'd changed stuff (I only look at such stuff when I'm going to buy!). Good to see that they've improved the mounting plate - although it means my jig is now out of date!

FlyingStantoni, I think the Freeride has a mounting plate (4hole) the Freedom is direct screwed (6hole) . . . lots going on right now that's why the TTS thing is getting some serious scrutiny and lots of plaudits.

The mounting plate for Freeride bindings up to & inc 11/12 has 6 holes but non-lardies/huckers can get away with using the outer 4 & some early templates only showed the outer 4 holes anyway.
The 12/13 Freeride's base plate is completely different in that it has a mounting footprint that matches the forward holes of the new Freedom binding.
The new Freedom binding is a beauty.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

spyderjon, so you've fondled one have you  Got a price? Oh and a price for a pair of G3 Onyx.
Use Quiver killers for the heelpiece and put the G3 noses on some backcountry lightweights. with inserts for the tails . . . just thinking outloud at the mo.

Thanks gents ... no leaflet etc in my box. Moreover the question comes from being a tele virgin, ( let alone tele tech talk ) , and with my alpine bindings being mounted at +2 on a seth vicious, and recommendations ranging from +5 to -1 on an obsethed Ive acquired, and then have them talk trad, core, recommended centre etc and add in different tail rocker dims to other skis etc , I thought I d better ask someone sensible (!) and get a straight answer.
So boot centre to ski centre it is ......
Kind regards
