Binding question

I just bought new boots, my old ones were 29.5 and my new ones are 30.5, i didnt even consider at the time that i might have to adjust the binding (duh) but anyways the boot definatley doesnt fit. So i was just wondering is there a possibility i might have to remount the binding, because it doesnt look like the binding will adjust enough to fit the boot, but i could be wrong. Your thoughts

My worry is that the binding is already adjusted out to the max, in whichcase he would have to remount of course

With a longer obot you also need to readjust your 'Din' your boot now has more leverage and your bindings may need to be turned down a notch

Size of the boot really has no meaning. Different boots have different lengths. Last year I got the Line Transers(in a bigger size that my previous boot) and the base length was so small i had to remount my bindings to make them smaller.

boot sole length is what you gotta look at Small numb at the heel..(Foot size dodnt matter) If you need remounting make sure the shop fills in the old holes.

If the binding is all the way out yes you will have to remount it, but you can only remount your front piece let's say. it will be closer to center too.
