Remounting pivot 15’s

Do you know the BSL of your boots and the BSL the pivots were mounted for?

koareichardtI need to remount my look pivot 15’s because we’re there mounted they are too small for my boot? Can I take them too my shop and get them remounted to fit my boot? Wondering if it will affect the ski as well?

yes, they can more likely than not be re-mounted to fit your boots if the current mount is too small / outside the adjustment range. The shop tech should be able to re-mount without conflict with the old holes if you boot sole length is 1.2cm or so longer than the current mount. Your local tech will be able to give you good advice on how to proceed and what is the best option.

Will remounting them change how your skis ski? Well, yes - you'll be able to ski them ;) Joking aside, as long as you move the toes and heels the same amount then the ski will ski the same. If you have to move just the toes or just the heels (due to hole conflict) then the skis might teoretically change, but most skis are not that sensitive to mounting that a cm fore or aft is going to dramatically change how they ski. Realistically, it will probably not be noticeable for most skis and skiers.

As for where to re-mount them - go for the factory recommended unless you have a specific reason not to (regardless of the inevatable "center mount them" advice you'll get on here). Most skis are permissive of re-mounts 2cm for or aft of recommended and in some cases are permissive of even larger changes (typically playful freerides skis that have a conservative mount point like Fischer Ranger FR 102s), and some skis have team / freestyle recommended mounting spots significantly forward of the factory / freeride recommended mount point. Which is the correct option depends on how you ski - traditional style of driving through the tips or more modern upright style where you pivot more than ride the sidecut. The former is more usual for the freeride crowd while the other is more typical park or freestyle. But again, talk to your local tech / shop - they'll have this sorted out in no time.

powpatrolDo you know the BSL of your boots and the BSL the pivots were mounted for?

The bsl is 346 for my boots. For look 15’s would that work?

Pivots have a small amount of adjustability. I was able to adjust mine from a 315mm to a 306mm BSL this season because I downsized. It might work in the opposite way too

koareichardtThe bsl is 346 for my boots. For look 15’s would that work?

if the pivots are mounted within 4/5mm (might get away with slightly more) you are in luck and will be able to adjust them. if not it’s a remount but it won’t be the end of the world if that happens

it is impossible to answer that question without knowing what BSL the original mount is for.

As the latest reply indicates the adjustment range is fairly limited - within the three bands on the arms . You could try to adjust them, but the boots should nearly fit in there for to be any hope with the current mount. The procedure to adjust the bindings to your BSL is the same for all Pivots, and is referred to as setting the forward pressure. If it is not possible to do these within the three bands on the adjustable dildoarms, then you need to get them remounted.

Remounting them is not a big deal and Pivots can obviously be mounted for whatever BSL - the only limiting factor wrt a re-mount being hole conflict with the original mount.

Again, a shop tech can figure out this out in a matter of minutes if not seconds.

346 bsl wtf lol u play in the NBA?

I don’t even need to use skis. My feet are long enough

How can you adjust pivots? I’ve never had them and just got some 15s

on the heel piece, there’s two bars either side of the dildo. there’s a screw at the top of them and you can change the heel piece by 1 or two adjustments
