i bought demo bindings, not knowing it at the time, off ebay for 70 bucks brand new. ive been readin up on demo bindings and it seems like they suck compared to the regular ones. i already got them mounted and was wonderin if it would be a good idea to just go ahead and buy a new binding or keep the demos? will there be a dramtic difference in performance?

well, heres some more background..

i went to my shop, bought new skis, told the guy to mount them where i wanted to, and put them directly on the ski, no risers. he tells me, "well, these are demo bindings, they come with a built in riser, so youre goin to have a little bit of lift, about 10mm"

demo bindings usually weigh more than typical bindings

All of the demos I've seen have that little riser you talked about with boot sole lengths on it. Also, I remember seeing Rossignol demo bindings on eBay that had a slightly different name than the traditional Axial bindings. So just take a careful look at the picture and the name and go from there.
