^ha..nice responce

there's actually kinda 2 pieces to their heel piece. you have to get the heel part off the heel track. there's a screw in back that goes sideways (not down into the ski) that you have to turn til the piece comes completely off the track. then you unscrew the track out of the ski. understand?

the screw that changes forward pressure(under the back of the heelpiece), back all the way out....then youll have a plate with 4 screws and just unscrew them

Because you might fuck up your knee trying to take the bindings off yourself! Take it to a shop that knows how to turn a screw counterclockwise.

Oops, thought you were still talking about unmounting them. Take them to a shop for mounting unless you have a jig and one of those release test rigs.

Becuase you need to make sure that they are exactly the right length apart..just trust me. Better to drop $20 then have a torn ACL.

vince, if you couldn't figure out how to take the heelpiece off the binding, you're stupid to think you can mount them yourself. go to the shop. they have a jig that they calibrate to your boot to make sure the bindings are just the right length apart and mounted perfectly straight on the ski. they use a drill press so the holes are perfectly straight, and they won't fuck up. just pay 20 bucks.

Acutally if you get people who know what they are doing to instlal them correctly and get the toe pressure in the toe piece to be correct - they are a sick bidning. I am assuming you live in ohio Vincepru so take them to Little Mountain Ltd. - they know how to install reactors correctly.

Rails are so easy man. Just takes some good sessioning and the balls to go fast enough. You'd be killin' it on the rails in no time.
