Would this be a trouble/problem to try to put
look binding onto Elizabeth. I have the wide
break, but its still small for the eliza waist. Would
they still fit somehow???

if the ski is like 1cm or less larger than the brake you can just bend them to fit around the waist of the ski.

i have looks with wide brakes on my lizas, you just have to bend the brake a lot. the part that's trickiest actually is that look/rossi doesn't make a binding jig more than 100mm wide, so you should make sure you get someone really experienced to mount your skis, cuz it'll be a freehand job and you don't wanna fuck it up.

Ah....that's what I was worried about...I wasn't sure if they had jig that big and the local shop guys are douche bags. They weren't sure if they could mount fuken mike nicks which is only 86 waist...

So what options do I have now, if my local guys can't mount it...I might have to go for moship or invaders. If the reactors weren't so dam expensive, this wouldn't be a problem.

salomon makes a binding jig that works up to 130mm, so if you get salomon bindings that would work great. probably a better choice than getting those reactors actually.

dont get salomons, that would be a waste of a good pair of skis, and just take your time and find a good shop, you got all summer

Any shop that deals with Powder boards can mount your Elizabeths using a jig template. Some shops are just to lazy to get one or make one. If they are not confident enough to mount a 86mm waist then you may want to purchase them from a shop that knows how to mount them.

$50 off a binding or anything else if you buy the skis. Free mounting and shipping, just give a boot sole length. No Sales Tax.
