So I can get a pair of K2 disordely with some marker 11 free bindings for cheap.. But they are mounted for a 26.5 boot and he says you can change the binding to fit bigger boots.. Is that true??

I will use it as my jib/urban ski, so it would be a sweet deal for me if you could change the binding for bigger boots..

Why do you need it to fit bigger boots?

You may get another size smaller or larger out of them without a remount.

Obviously.

Without stating how big his boots are it's really difficult to give any solid advice!

If you are going to use the m11 - assuming they were mounted in the middle of the heeltrack, from memory you should be able to accommodate around a size different either way without requiring a remount.

Agreed. But since they are for urban, they may work out all right.
