Ski binding decisions

Hey, so I'm getting the surface no time skull candy skis with a 76mm waist and the rossignol axial2, seeing as the brake width is 14mm wider then the waist, is it worth it to buy replacement 80mm brakes or just keep the 90mm brake. Thanks

I would just keep them. In my opinion, it's not big enough to cause a huge problem, and if one does break, get the 80's as a replacement

It may be worth speaking to the shop you're buying from and seeing if they would do the bindings with the 80mm for no extra cost, as technically they can still sell the 90mm's, so no profit loss. If not a generally accepted maximum difference in brake width to ski waist width is 15mm so you should be fine.
