I'm getting pretty tired of having to remount my FKS and jesters.

I've called rossi and marker but no answer, so i was wondering.

Where can i buy a mounting plate?

Any information is much appreciated.

I also realize i might not be able to buy them, that it might be a shop only thing. But i have no idea.


Thanks!

Also, just to clear up. these are the templets, or plates to drill the ski for the binding.

So you want a Jig.... I'm assuming this is the mounting plate you speak of.

You wont get one cheap - your best get is finding someone who held onto their jigs from a shop that has closed down. Otherwise, I don't know any legal form of obtaining one.

you mean jigs? They don't sell them they are for ski shops only because the techs are trained to mount your bindings not you. With that said sometimes ebay has them or you can get paper jigs off a tgr thread

Jig! Yes i mean a jig.

Bleh.

I'm out $275 for mounting this year.

I'd rather just spend the money on a couple jigs

Here is the trick: use the paper to mount the heel onto a piece of plexiglass. Then mount the toe piece on that properly to your boot so you have a plexiglass jig that is perfectly sized for your boot
