Asking my wife if she's interested. What BSL are they mounted for?
I skied a friend's 185 Slugger for one run and was very impressed. It engaged well but broke free nicely. Ripped groomers and bumps equally well. It did feel like it was mounted a bit forward for my...
Incoming PM, but also posting here in case there's other interest.
I have a pair of DP Pros (184? 186? Right around there...) with pivots mounted for ~315mm. I got them cheap a couple of seasons...
I totally understand not wanting to do a precision mount, personally. And yet, this thread is exactly why I started mounting myself: ask a shop to do a mount, they agree, I discover a significant...
Since this thread has an extensive conversation about the minimum tools required for a tuning kit (not just base bevel) I think it's worth mentioning that a sidewall planer is 100x more important...
Also, I should have mentioned, skiessentials.com has a handful of pairs for cheap! The morning has happened on the east coast and they haven't cancelled my $350+tax+free shipping stormrider.
I may have found a pair of the plaid 2019 SR105s in a 186 and am wondering about mount point. I use boots with lots of forward lean and more often than not want to move bindings back on my skis, but...
Chiming in to say that being tempted toward comps had prompted me to pull a nearly forgotten pair of motherships off the wall and throw bindings on them. Loving the AMs but it's been a while since...
I just mounted AM 188s a few days ago and haven't skied them a ton but am loving them so far. Smooth, reasonably strong on edge while also really balanced and willing to release. And now this review!...
PM incoming on PX 18s
I'm in Alpine Meadows and have plenty of ski boxes. Let me know if you want to grab one.
Ah, thanks. That makes a lot more sense to me (and causing the pins to separate and close again a bit every stride under weight sure seems like a way to cause wear).
I might be missing something, but the riser you can flip down to tour without rotating the heel doesn't contact the springs at all. It rests on the top of the heel tower. So I'm not sure how the...

Do you know the year/dimensions of the 95s?
Thanks!
PM sent on the corvus!
Bumping this because it is so useful! I picked up an old pair of FKS 155s and I've been skiing on them for a while but just tried to pop myself out of the toes today and couldn't click out at a DIN...
It's hard to beat the telemark Pyrenees deals right now with the exchange rate!

PM incoming!
Thanks for the pointer to Corbett's! I picked up some backland 107ws for something like US$350. Plus, I helped fight inflation by sending money away!
Wifeskis found. Thanks everyone for the help!
Thanks! I think that's too big a ski for my wife. And also, I'm a little hesitant to go with G3s again after seeing how the core snapped in her previous ski (the ski is clearly held together by the...
My wife broke a G3 zenoxide 105 touring ski on Hood this summer and I'm trying to source her a replacement. I think something between 100 and 110 underfoot would be ideal, and definitely a bias...
Thanks! Yup, those are the skis. Hopefully I can get them mounted up without more holes.
Shit, I misread this earlier. It looks like these are attack 11 demos, is that right? If so, I'm interested. I'll PM you.
Huh! So they have toe and heel adjustment but are not demos?
Thanks for looking into it. I'm really hoping to reuse holes so I'll pass.
I'm interested (pending my other question about hole pattern consistency across generations of this binding) - no idea what these sell for, though! I'll pm you once I have the other info sorted a...
Oh man, I'm not familiar with these in general. Do they use the same hole pattern?
If so, I only need a din of 6 and Alpine sole compatibility, so I would assume either is fine. If not, I'll have...
I'm looking to find 1-2 pairs of attack demos with 85-90mm brakes to reuse some holes on skis for my wife. Anyone holding?
My wife is 5 ft 4 in, 120lbs, advanced to expert skier. She picked up a pair of Stormrider 105s that are, I think, 168 long. They are big skis for her, but she rips on them and loves them so much...
Are skins included? Thanks!
Volcano setup sold, Kastles still available.
Lumber racks from Amazon do well for us. 6 shelves per rack, each holds two pairs of skis.

Olympic Bootworks punched the bejeezus out of a pair for me. They said it was tricky but they are good at it. Significant width increase from 1st metatarsal head up through my little toe.
I'll echo a bunch of comments here! I wouldn't call these damp but they are extremely energetic with a big top end. I'm 6' 175lbs and ski pretty hard on the 182s. They have ridiculously strong turn...
Bump. Somebody must want a sweet volcano setup or some groomer zoomers!
Thanks!
I searched for the thread but couldn't find it my that name. I may just suck at searching. Mind adding a link?
Adding a photo now that I'm in front of a computer.

Which do you mean? Shoot me a PM and we'll sort it out.
Located in Alpine Meadows, willing to ship (though shipping the full bc package would be a bunch of stuff).
$300 Spring setup:
28.5 Dynafit TLT5 Performance boots, bushings re-pressed about 15...
:Thanks to this thread I've mounted many skis on my own, but today might take the cake. I stared at a pair of stormrider dp pros with 3 existing mounts for quite a while, figured out how to redrill...
That is awesome! Thank you! I would love to see pictures if you have them. With a little more forward lean I'm pretty sure these boots will crush it.
I'm going to give that a try soon, as well as moving the spoiler down and possibly adding a foam wedge behind the cuff. I'd still really love a modified heel latch to decouple the fit from these...
I picked up a pair of F1 LTs recently since I have been skiing F1s this season and enjoying them. Unfortunately, despite setting the boot up with as much forward lean as it can support, the LTs feel...
Yeah... Those would be perfect except I think 105 will be pretty wide for my 94mm ski.
Wtb set of pivots with 95mm brakes and preferably alpine AFD. Any din 14-18 is fine.
Picked up a pair of stormrider dp pros locally and they are impressively Swiss cheesed with three Look toes,...
I'm interested in the sths. Pm incoming.
Cool, great questions! This is interesting because I have motherships and backup motherships. I love them, but I also ski them very rarely because they are so heavy and so much work in most...
Despite the inexplicable resistance from XXX-er, I'm on board for the TFL. Makes a ton of sense to me, wish boot manufacturers published such a thing.
