hey eveyone, I am planning on getting some new skis, most likely the sir francis bacons or the blends. I believe I have the rossignol AXIAL 100 mm bindings and wondering if I should be getting new bindings as well or if these will work? I am aware that the brake will not be wide enough but can you just replace brakes? Thank you for your help and +k!

The Axials will work just fine, you could just bend the brake out or get the shop to replace it with for the 115 for the Bacons.

I have 115 brakes on my bacons (108 waist) which fit totally fine - not too big. 100 would probably rub a bit if you get bacons, but they'd be fine with blends. Either way, it shouldn't cost you much to switch out the brakes at a shop - they're really common and easy to replace (one screw), or just look up a brake bending video, it's pretty simple to do.
