Hey,

Im looking to swap out my jesters and fks from one ski to another. I really would like to leave the mounts in the same place on each ski. I called my shop and they told me they would have to take the bindings off to figure this out. Any techs out there know if I can mount an fks in the same place as a jester?

thanks

I am guessing the heel would fit due to the super compact pattern on the fks, not sure about toes though, my guess would be all together it's a no go

here's a paper template for the fks (http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/showthread.php?t=153971), a jester one is due in soon so you could get them and match to your bsl. put a hole punch through the holes, and see if there's 1cm of space in between them, that's the minimum distance they can be from eachother

why the switch?

if you can't find the jester template at least you only have to remove the bindings from one ski

^ thanks. that helps a lot.

I've ridden my park skis with fks for a few season but switched to the jesters for last season. I prefer the fks on my park skis rather than on my hellbents so Im just looking to see if I could switch them out and mount them on my ar6s, but it would only really be worth it if I could mount them back at true center again
