Mounting screws

so i won a pair of PBR brewskis and brought them to Colorodo Ski and Golf in Aurora.  I asked them to put the Rossi Axial 140's on them but without the lifters(i had bought them on evogear).  I came back to the store and they had put screws in n tthat were to big and drilled through the core.  Then put the lifters on and ptexed the bottom.  Naturally i was super pissed but the manager said he'll order me a new pair but it may take a few weeks. 

So anyone know what size screws i need to put them on without the lifters.  i went to the Rossignol website and couldnt find a way to contact and ask.

You arent getting a new pair of brewskis.  They were the last skis ever pressed in the ak enemy press.  Good luck.  I would be fucking pissed.

But what i am saying is that there are no more of that ski.  K2 doesnt have any left, hell they dont even have the Ak enemy left.

yeah man, those were some limited edition skis, they are super expensive and K2 definitely doesnt have any left to sell (maybe some to keep as collectables for themselves).

i would be super pissed that they messed with your very rare and expensive skis, and tell them that. tell them they cant replace them and that you want some hook ups or something

They didn't even sell them, did they?

Demand a store credit for any ski in the shop, and demand that you get the Brewskis back, and maybe you could check out this thread https://newschoolers.com/web/forums/readthread/thread_id/427514/ and see if you can do anything about it.

K2 gave them to their most lucrative dealers, and they in turn gave them away in sales contests.
