    Rossi finally has fat brakes

    I meant to post this a while back, but Rossi has fat brakes on their new 185 race bindings.

    Someone deserves a raise.

    Is about time that is good news.
    If ski companies didn't make new skis every year I wouldn't have to get new skis every year.

    If by going huge, you mean looking really cool in the lift line, then yes, I'm very excited.

    str8line, will these brakes fit onto older Rossi turntable bindings? Or are they set up specifically for their new 05/06 binding design?

    I usually find you blatantly obtuse, Greydon. But that one killed me.

    Well it looks like I'll be trading in my axial 140s for my pistols and getting another set for the Made'ns I'll have next season.

    I'm assuming this includes Look Turntable binders too, since the design is identical, right?

    Talked to a Rossi Rep who knew about str8line's confusion. Rossi IS NOT making wide brakes for the old turntable heel. Rossi's team/product manager mounts all skis he sends to athletes. He just got real good at bending the brakes and making it look professional. Sorry guys, keep on bendin'.

    Gordy, any thoughts about the changes to Look/Rossi bindings in '06?

    I started a thread here

    http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=26426

    would love to hear your opinions if it's possible to be unbiased given the sponsorship commitments and all
