3 remounts on a ski like that is a bit excessive though. Not so sure if it will last you the whole season.

What do you have to lose? mount it, if it breaks, buy a new ski. They are really cheap anyway.

after 3 remounts most shops won't mount them. since you are bumping up they might still mount them but a lot of shops won't touch em if they've been drilled three times and you're asking for a fourth.

Drilling a ski more than once is never good for it. If you have to drill it again you can still ski it, just you run into the chance of either the core snapping or your binding pulling out.

How hard do you generally ski?
