Dunno how I managed to delete my original post, but here to confirm that I have sent in my prepayment to TMS and updated the spreadsheet accordingly.
Also, went with the 100mm brakes not so much because it reflects my actual touring/skiing needs, but mostly to condemn Tahoe to tons of snow for the rest of you. You can thank me later. (Actual deep snow not expected until after I have Shifts mounted on <100mm skis. Dammit.)
Cheers,
Paul

Is there a consensus if we can bend 110mm brakes to fit a 115mm ski?

How the hell the latest and greatest hybrid binding is being sold on discount before it's really available is beyond me.
No wonder the ski industry is in the shitter.what's orange and looks good on hippies?

rails are for trains
If I had a dollar for every time capitalism was blamed for problems caused by the government I'd be a rich fat film maker in a baseball hat.

Bulk orders are discounted in basically every industry.
Especially if you're willing to risk putting up $$$ months before the product is available.

Retail in general has a 50% margin.
Solomon still gets their wholesale price.
This retailer gets 30% instead of 50. But these are interweb customers, many of whom would never buy from this Tahoe shop.
The interesting part is Salomon allowing the publicly disclosed discount.
This hoses all the local shops or big online retailers. But, it’s also guerrila marketing, and gets the bindings in the hands of core bro brah skiers.
So yes, retail ski is on the shitter, but so is every retail brick and mortar that competes with the web.. . .

Salomon isn't worried about us. This forum is public, but not really. It's niche. Local shops elsewhere will be just fine trying to sell such a buzzed about product. And besides, a lot of us are already supporting a local shop in this case. Everyone I've talked to says Dave / Tahoe Mountain Sports are worth supporting.
