I know. The problem was that I didn't have access to a printer at that time. Anyhow, got a buddy of mine to print it yesterday. They overlap, dukes - fks don't. Problem solved

Hey, just thought I would mention. I checked, double checked, and triple checked stuff. The template for the tyrolia/head bindings is off. The rearmost holes on the heel piece need to be about 1mm wider on the template. I didn't get an exact measurement, but it is not right. It made mounting a little more sketchy that usual.

Just used tje tyrolia template to remount my bibbys.
Only used the template for toe pieces and just measured the distance between old and new holes on the toes and drilled new heel holes the same distance forward. Worked perfect and I can't imagine 1mm making a percievable difference.
Anyway, it was way more fun than drilling holes and driving screws has any right to be.
Don't think a shop will drill a pair of my skis ever again.

Can confirm that the Marker Jester/Griffon template is spot on. Did a test mount, came out true.
Thanks for the effort Jondrums.

Bump for summer quiver upgrade investigations.
Should be a sticky!
thanks jon

Is there a seperate template for the (new last year) Frreride Pro? The template for the freeride seems to be a little short in the toe? My print scale seems to be set correctly

**FrankZappa** · 08-29-2011, 09:36 AM

Freeride PRO is completely different from Freeride - both toe and heel.

Maybe Lou has some templates here - but do a test on a 2x4 first.

Thanks, that looks much better. My new Coombacks are anxiously waiting to be mounted.

**jondrums** · 08-30-2011, 04:35 PM

Frank (or anyone)
I'd like to make up a FreeridePro paper template, but the wildsnow template does not seem to have any indication of mounting line location. Can anyone elaborate?

Ideally, I'd need an accurate distance from the rear-most holes of the toepiece and the mounting line, along with the BSL that it was mounted for.

**FrankZappa** · 08-30-2011, 05:18 PM

Give me a bit to review what I did. It's been since dec. Some of that stuff is at home in the cave.

One thing I don't see on the WS is the 4th heel hole.

Maybe I'll dump the layout to a dxf for you? PM me an email.

**Knut** · 09-03-2011, 11:48 AM

That's the one I did. It was used 2x successfully to my knowledge.
Feel free to use/change it...

just used the fks and salomon. perfect. thanks!

**jondrums** · 09-13-2011, 12:15 AM

Once again, Knut comes through!
I'll update the collection to include freeride-pro and eagle pretty soon

I took one of my 2010-2011 Griffon Schizos off the skis they're on and measured the hole placements.

It is suggested here that the schizos are the same as the Jesters just with an extra hole (C below) so hopefully that can give you some idea of my margin of error, which I think is <1mm. Just eyeballing it, the pattern on the Jester template looks correct, but I'll print the template and check it. My measurements were taken from the centre of the holes.

length-wise from tip to tail (REF = marked reference line, which is about 30-33mm back from boot centre):

A -> B = 32mm
B -> C = 56mm
C -> REF = 129mm
REF -> D = 101mm
D -> E = 80mm

width-wise:

A & B are 18mm from width-centre
C is on the width-centre-line
D & E are 16mm from width-centre

My BSL is 327mm.

Thanks for thread and templates. took the plunge and mounted my mantras with tyrolia railflex and daughters' maitais with Salomon Z12's.
image is of skis taken during a lunch stop somewhere in Hokkaido, Furano or Niseko.
i mounted the railflex plates +1.5 at the midsole line which allows me to move the bindings -3 behind the MSL. very handy in the deeper snow. a versatile setup.

**austrianshop** · 10-30-2011, 08:30 AM

A retroactive thank you for some great mounts with both the fks and tyrollia templates.
I was wondering if a dynafit radical template of jondrums style was in the works, I am much more comfortable than the radical template available on wildsnow. Thanks in advance for any info.

**jondrums** · 10-30-2011, 10:27 AM

I've been meaning to make the radical template, so yes its in the works.

**jondrums** · 10-30-2011, 10:28 AM

(note to self) todo list:

Fritschi freeride pro/eagle
add schizo hole to jester template
dynafit radical template

**arild** · 10-30-2011, 01:06 PM

Just mounted a pair of 920s to my Ragnaroks. Worked out great, and is probably my best mount to date (I´ve done a few).

**Bobcat Sig** · 10-31-2011, 09:36 PM

This thread is ten kinds of awesome, especially for this guy who is looking at the threaded inserts so I can run a set of alpine binders and maybe some dynafiddles later on ... Subscribed.

with 2 out of 3 I can provide assistance...

**Alpinord** · 11-02-2011, 01:26 PM

Hey Jon,
Is it possible to get these in a .dwg file? While stacking PDFs in my CAD program trying to find hole conflicts with different bindings, I realized it would be real nice with stacked CAD layers instead of opaque PDFs objects.

**gskis** · 11-03-2011, 12:15 AM

been using this to do the remounts on my chopsticks with tyrollia bindings and for mounting my new billy goats. these are awesome! definitely going to stick with mounting my own skis from here on out since the shop messed up the last 2 mounts that they did for me and never told me...

**jondrums** · 11-03-2011, 07:23 PM

Terry, Adobe illustrator can save PDF files in DXF format, which is what I'd recommend.

I think you're trying to recreate THIS

That's the intent. I don't have Illustrator but found a workaround. If I convert the PDF to an image file and import it, I can control opacity, but lose the snapping ability of the PDF import.
