HOLY SHIT! Hahah that really sucks. but if the person who mounted them was a certified technician then you can get him or her fired, stripped from thier certification, and not able to find another job as a ski tech.

at first i thought he couldve made the mistake by mounting them 5 cm back except backwards but there is no way he couldve made this mistake unless he was seriously smacked. isnt that the thrid moiunt on those anyways? if so it may be the end of poor ms lizzie :(


demand they get you these:

Holy shit I would be pissed.  I'm guessing the screws popped through the bases alot, or were they cut down?  I have griffons mounted at recommended on mine and they dimpled a tiny bit.  I would be super pissed If I got them and they looked like that.

You should at least try skiing them for a day, just to experience awesome switch ridability.

The ski shop at Wachusett Mountain mounted the binders on my Lizzies crocked  - they were about a centimeter to one side of the ski.  After a few confrontations, the agreed to reimburse me 100%. 

I didn't get angry at them, I just acted really disappointed and continually mentioned how the ruined my skis for me.  After declining a different set of bindings and a different mounting location, they decided it would be best to just reimburse me.  I have now bought a new pair of Lizzies and am waiting to get them mounted at a different shop. 

I feel your pain, good luck.
