Mount mistake

Ski shop just called me, they finished mounting my skis but after drilling into them they realized boot center was .5 CMs off true center which is what I asked for.


Y’all think they owe me a new set? Or should I not make a scene?

Is it 0.5cm behind center or in front of Center?

Not a huge deal in my opinion.

Not sure yet. Also not sure if they fucked up on one ski or both.

If they're both .5cm behind center I wouldn't do much...try to angle for some tuning or wax down the road?

If they're mounted differently or ahead of center I'd have issues.

need some clarifications for sure, but -0,5 from true center is no worries at all

Please tell me these are not the skis you were asking about before.

-0.5 is fine, I would just roll with it
You can definitely have them remounted if you would like, which is not hard to do. if you bought the skis from the same shop you had em mounted there’s a good chance you’ll get a good discount on a new pair or even get a set free.

Yes dude I’ve literally had 3 conversations with them since. “Just double checking you're doing true center ski” “yep got them marked”

Kudos to the shop for telling you. Probably not noticeable and they could easily have covered it up or just left as is.
