Hey, so I bought some used skis this summer and was going to finally set them up with some binders but how do I go about making sure I can mount where I want. In other words, how can I measure the bsl from the drill holes and figure out if I can mount some rossi 140 tis because I've never done this before.

I wear a 28 nordica supercharger btw
Thanks! +K for replies

Just take them to a shop and have them do it - it's worth the money. They'll tell you if they can do it or not.

Yeah what he said ^ also if you have the bindings to hand you can match the holes and work out wether the tracking will work for your BSL. Otherwise just move the bindings and redrill.

You can always do it. Reuse the heel or toe holes if need be. Worst case scenario is you'll be 5mm off your desired mount location.

if you want you can get a paper template and line it up with your bsl and the hole pattern you want, if there's a centimeter between the holes you're gonna drill and the old holes, you're set

i'd take them to a shop though, they'll tell you right away

worst comes to worst you end up having to mount a little forward or back from your desired point
