 Poster: A snowHead
|
I naievely assumed that if a shop's website had Atomic on it they would be able to mount Atomic bindings. I am wrong! I am now in Hong Kong and in 2 days I fly to Niseko where I had hoped to be able to use my new skis and bindings bought through the BASI offer. Proski in Niseko has said they don't have an Atomic jig and can only help me if a mounting template came with the binding. It doesn't appear that one did (although I don't know what it would like).
Surely I can download one of these online, or there's something else to be done? I don't want these to be a complete waste of money and I'm so looking forward to using them... 
Please help!

beanie1, Most of the Atomic bindings are now rebadged Salomons & any decent shop will have the Salomon jig - you just need to know the equivalent Salomon model.
If you're stuck I can make you up an A4 template for the toe & heels bindings relative to the ski line which I can email to you to print off & take with you. I'll put a scale on the templates so you can ensure they print off to the correct size. I'll need the binding model & your boot sole length emailing to jon at thepisteoffice.com

beanie1, that's a rebadged Sallie Z10 (3-10din) with a 100mm brake so you need a shop that can mount that.
What is it with you BASI folk that buy low end kit 'cause you get a pro deal on it ( http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?t=96706 )?
Luckily IIRC you only weigh about 8st so the Z10 shouldn't flex too much! I'm turning in now but if you need the templates email me your boot sole length & I'll pick it up in the morning.

Hi Jon
Thanks, I'll check with the shop and if not email you my boot sole length tomorrow morning your time.
I bought those bindings as I have my DINS set at 6.5, so in the middle of the range of the binding, is that not right? They're going on a woman's free ride ski in 159cms, so when I sell them second hand I reckon they'll be appropriate for potential buyers too.
Sorry you disapprove!
