You can just slide the tecton heel off of the mounting plate and slide the vipec heel on. Super easy swap. Toes are essentially the same depending on how old, but that's a solid backup plan if you...

I'm sure this jacket was stupid expensive at one point. Won it at some party, but it never gets worn. How much is it worth to you?

My wife doesn't wear this anymore and I'd like to keep it out of the landfill. All offers considered.

For a friend who has bindings and skins, so flat ski is ideal, but would consider with bindings as well.

I got out on my new tecton 13s today and pre-released on my 4th turn. I figured I stepped in poorly, but then found that there was broken plastic piece in the toe, just below the pins. Here's a pic...

Redrilling the insert holes if you've already got the proper holes drilled is the easy part. I've found that inserts have a bit of wiggle room so the torque ing maneuver you did with your original...

Thanks for the heli-coil info. I do like the ss inserts a lot, but I figured if the hole size and thread pitch happened to match the bits and taps that I've got, it could be worth it.

Exactly. It's not about being cheap, the stepped bits from qk/bf are inviting trouble. The shoulder of the bit is so insignificant that you definitely want a stop collar as well. At least that was my...

Gotcha, makes sense.

Duke pt seems like a CAST killer. I'm sure some people will insist that they need a pivot in the backcountry, but I can't imagine that there are that many people who...

What is metal grip? Asking for a friend :-)

Also, why not duke pt? I know it's cool to hate on Marker and all, but it seems like such a better design than shifts, especially if you've got a tecton in your quiver. You could cover both ends of...

Just curious, why are you going with shifts? Lots of reports of comparable downhill performance on shift v tecton and tecton obviously wins out on uphill performance. Shift probably is more...

Man, running all four toe screws in compromised locations would worry me regardless, but I think I like the idea of a heli coil overlapping more into the hardwood plug. Looks like a 3.6 hole would...

The thought of touring on this ski with speed radicals sounds painful and yet I love everything about this setup.

This harkens back to a day when skis were harder to come by then bindings....

Why not drop heli coils or inserts into the existing empty holes? Is moving the binding 4mm ish that important?

Sold, but I've got another nicer pair with 100mm brakes and it's the FT version which means release value up to 12. I'll entertain offers on those if you're still looking.

For BF heli-coils, does anyone know what size hole to drill and what type of tap to use? Anyone got a hack for a heli-coil installation tool?

Get yourself some classic touring bindings. $150 + shipping or pickup in Roaring Fork Valley.

Sounds good, pm incoming

Ah

I thought this might be one corner of the internet where anonymity doesn't lead to misogyny, but I guess I was wrong. I'm sure I'll get trolled for this post, but so be it.

Anyone have a pair laying around? I believe there are two versions out there and I'll take either. Thanks.

Last call for a stout touring set up before I convert these into more of a resort ski. Id much rather trade.

Anyone know the differences between tecton 12 and 13 other than release values? Google doesn't.

Good to know. I'm planning to put a Tecton on a biggish ski that I'll drive with some rossi alltracks most of the time. I want to take the ski on a Canada hut trip, though, and I want to drive it...

Bump, who's looking for a beefier set up?

Did you end up making this swap? Any photos of vipec heels going onto tectons? I may want to make a similar mod.

I'm sure this has been covered below, but can't find it. Can anyone lay out the difference between raider, freeraider, raider evo and freeraider evo? Thanks.

Hey all, I picked up the ferox freebird in 186cm (thanks funkendrenchman) and after a few days in them, I'm looking for something lighter. This ski would be a great 50/50 resort/touring ski, but I'm...

These are going on ebay tomorrow and I'd way rather sell them here. Lmk if you're interested.

I'm interested. But I'm curious why you have a touring ski that has been mounted with 3 different alpine bindings? Could you let me know more about the history? Thanks.

Looks like a garage sale kind of day for you which leads me to inquire about the jig in this picture. I teach a class in which I'm training high school kids with the skills they need to become entry...

I bought these for $400 and I'm willing to take a loss on these cuz i didn't think hard enough about 12 v 16 din. I'm going to pick up the 16's. Based on watching ebay pretty closely, this is a fair...

Does anyone know if there have been any changes to the duke pt 16 since 2021? Looks pretty unchanged, but not sure. Thanks.

Any idea who?

You still have these by chance?

did you ever sell these?

Fair enough, I was wrong. Though I do think it was a reasonable assumption and an explanation would ypically accompany a picture like that. Good luck selling those tunes and ready skis :-)

Bump, motivated buyer here, looking to spend ~$200

Hard to call these 'tuned and ready to go' if you haven't dripped some p-tex in that hole.

Sold
