I have a couple of skis that I wouldn't mind mounting with inserts for both IONs and an alpine binder (preferably Solly).
One of the skis already has a Radical mount, the other one for a Guardian.
Regardless of existing holes, I was concerned that the aforementioned mount combo was problematic.
Turns out it looks like the two rear holes of the toe on the ION line up nicely with the two rear holes of a Solly's toe.
With the front two ION toes being forward of the solly front two toe holes by ~12mm (guess).
i think (but am not sure) that the +/- on the toe placement of the two different binders/boots should be damn close; actual measurements forthcoming.
BLOG:
Newski#1) Kusala Pow Pure with one mount for Radical @ 99 from tip (0).
I think that want Sollys and Ions (with inserts) @ 99.5/100 (-0.5/-1.0) which I think will work using the shared rear toe hole technique.
Newski#2) Vicik Tour Veneer top with one mount for large Guardians at unknown spot.
I'm not even sure what 0 is on this ski.
But there is a fair amount of open area for the ol' Solly/Ion one-two.
I've fucked around with having a quiver with plates and sharing binders.
Hated it, the fuck around factor the night before / morning of skiing didn't work for me.
But I've got a couple of other go to resort skis, so I think sharing binders on a touring quiver subset sounds reasonable.
In search of the elusive artic powder weasel ...
