I recently bought a pair of volkl walls from a few years ago with some damage (2 edge bits missing, part of the top sheet missing) and the guy who sold them to me had to take the bindings (rossignol sas 110s from i believe 2009) off so that they could be shipped. Now no shop in my area will remount them because of the damage, and so I want to mount them myself. therefore:

(sparknotes)

I NEED TO KNOW WHAT SCREWS GO WHERE ON ROSSIGNOL SAS 110'S FROM 2009(?).


If you could help me in any way, I will be eternally indebted to you.

Surely if you were to get the same bindings it would be obvious where the screws go? Just don't force them and strip the hole and you should be fine

This is highly inadvisable, but take photos of the bindings and the screws. What are you going to use to make sure the hole are drilled correctly?

Should have mentioned this before. The holes are already drilled.

are the screws different lengths? if not put some adhesive, i prefer rubber cement, in the holes and screw the bindings in. pretty simple

i bet that all the screws are supposed to have the same amount of thread exposed on the bottom side of the binding. play around with the screw layout until they are all have equal amounts going into the ski

^Can a ski tech guy confirm this?

the thing is, there are also some that connect the brake to the main binding part. And you're probably right, I could do that, but if I could find this out it'd be way faster.

Just put all the screws in the bindings. The shortest screws most likely hold the brakes on, the longest are most likely the far back screws for the heels. For the toes, the wider head will be the screws right in front of the afd. Take pics so we can see. Don't stress man, you should get it figured out, just put some glue in there. My friend has remounted his bindings in the same holes a bunch of times and he hasn't had any problems, but it is definitely not recommended.

Its not gonna be totally accurate, but put the screws through all the holes of, say, the heelpiece. If they're in the right place, they should stick out equally from the baseplate. Please use glue, and when you hand tighten these with a posi (a MUST), go until the screws naturally stop, and sink them one at a time in cross pattern. After they're all in, if the binding is flush with the ski, give them a 1/8 to 1/4 extra turn. If any spin, holes are bad, and you need to go to a shop with a 18 rack and be really nice.

the screw on the far right is for the breaks, the long ones for the heal piece and the other ones for the toe piece.

I'm NOT a ski tech though, so I don't take any responsibly if you die cause the bindings rip out
