Hey guys quick question that may have been answered before, but I just want to check again and get a clear answer on my specific specifications.

If I have FKS 140s mounted on my skis and they are mounted for Full Tilt Booters (26.5/302 BSL) is it possible for me to adjust my bindings to fit SPK Pros (26.5/305 BSL) without having to remount my bindings? Or is it even necessary for me to adjust it at all with just a difference of 5 with the BSL?

Thanks for the answers/help.

That will be fine. You could probably even mash your boot in there without changing the forward pressure and they wouldn't be the worst adjusted pair of FKS ever skied.

But really, it will be like 2 turns on the arms to get you that much adjustment, so as long as they're not already maxed out for some dumb reason you'll be OK.

they will be fine, if youre unsure how to adjust them, take them into your shop for and have it done there. but they should fit with very little adjustment

Yes I obviously know how large that is but I don't know too much about the technology of bindings/forward pressure/etc. and want to make sure that any bit of an adjustment won't be the difference between a yard sale and a torn ACL.

Thanks for the replies everyone
