they will work, all bindings are compatible, you need wide brakes though

no, the deadbolt screw pattern will not mount right on the BC core, they will rip right out.

no there are not skis that this happens on. skis that don't have a mounting plate I guess will make it more likely to happen, but otherwise whatever binding you chose will be alright. Oh, and thanks

He's sorta right. I think at one point the Race Stock FKS bindings were made to be put on a plate or a ski with a metal plate within the core, and when people started putting that binding on regular skis without any re-inforcement shit hit the fan. But Deadbolts and BC's will work.

no cus your AR5s dont have the superlight core that the JJs have. you dont have any problems. and iv only heard of several cases in which binders rip out of JJs.

Why would you put your binders on skis in the first place?  Personally put them in my backpack but i guess thats just me.
