yeah i got some new skis and my parents mounted the bindings..but they put it in regular stance which is way to far back for me. I got fugatives with p10's. is it possible to remount them? i wanted them to be at like +6 or something but alot of people told me you shouldnt because it will make the ski weaker

Make sure you put good plugs in the old holes. Also make sure none of your new holes will be right next to old ones. In my experience, re mounting once doesn't make the ski much weaker, people just like to say that. Also, wheneve anyone breaks a ski that has been remounted, they'll blame it on the remount, even though the ski may have broken anyway. +6 sounds like way too much of a move too. I wouldn't move bindings more than 3 cm away from the mark. A little change makes a surprisingly big difference in how a ski feels.

its fine if you plug the holes. make sure a good shop does it if you cant do it yourself.

remounting them once shouldnt be a problem, but doing it 2 or 3 times is bad for the ski.
