NoSlide Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Don't know a thing about the automats. Have carbon race plates on my UP that I use as a pow setup. How are these in deep powder? Never accidentally release? Tough to step in if not cleaned out? I weigh about 160 and ride a lot of western pow aggressively. Thanks.

jetskier Posted February 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 I've never had a problem with accidental release...as long as you have the toe & heel bail mounts spaced so that there is some tension when you step down, and you have to use a firm kick down once you get the toe & heel aligned in the bails. Wouldn't be good for powder though...boots need to be pretty clear to get a good engagement. You can feel when they snap into place, and as long as you feel/hear that, they won't come loose with proper setup. I've been using them on my Silberpfeil, and doing some really tight turns with the board up on edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSlide Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Thanks for ur prompt response. Thought a "dirty boot" might be an issue with the step ins. Gonna pass. Sure you'll sell'em. They look nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pebu Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 I just want to give a bump on these bindings. They're a good alternative to stepins that require a new heel. The action is nice getting them on. You can feel the lever on the back of your boot and then you're off. The only problem I noticed on them is they increase the heel profile a bit. I needed to crank up another couple degrees on my rear binding to stop digging snow heelside in the softer stuff. But on anything wider than a 19.5cm waist I'm sure I wouldn't have a problem.

windblownscott Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 I'm interested....will they fit a larger boot. If so, I'll take them with 3d discs. Thanks, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetskier Posted February 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Scott, How large a boot are we talking? I bet they would...quite a bit of adjustment. In the photo, the rear bail mounts are where they were when I rode them, and can still come back about 11mm. The toe bail mounts I moved forward for the photo...they were actually over the disk so a lot more adjustment there. I'm a 26 shell size, so 285mm sole. Of course you want a little room to get the boot centered, too. I can get a better measurement if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
