look at your receipt..if they wrote it down take them back and make them remount for free..if they didn't then you're out of luck man.

well..it doesn't matter that they're not center munted, the ski isn't weaker. it just means that if you plan on skiing park with them that they won't be as good.

and no, a remount won't make your skis weaker. it's usually safe to get a few mounts out of them.

no it costs the same..but check your receipt..look for the comments or notes section at the bottom, and there it should say "mount at center" or whatever. if it says that, take them back to the shop you got them mounted at and demand a remount because it was their fault. if you're in a mood to really piss them off, demand a new pair of skis since they screwed up. good luck.

if they're scratches they might be weaker because of there wierd flex pattern near the toe of the binding. thats just what i heard, but its not like it'll break or anything

well they should do it for free and re-drilling the skis should be fine. re-drilling skis more than 3 times is when they start to get weaker
